Star Trek XI
"Next Star Trek movie budget now at $150 million"
Paramount seems quite serious this time out. B&B are gone! Woohoo!
Top director, bigger budget, a cast where some are actually under 30.
Or 40 for that matter. Or 50...
I love the fact some fans are feeling left out, as this movie is set in Kirk's era. Ha, suck it.
TOS is still the best of all Star Trek *steps away from computer*.
Now calm down. TNG has better effects (at least later on), and Patrick Stewart was the best actor to appear in any ST, but much of TGN is unwatchable now (just one too many holodeck stories, and Beverley and Troy bonding...and fucking Sherlock Holmes).
DS9 fires no one these days (and it turned Worf into a pussy), and Voyager was the idiot nephew of the family no one likes to mention now (yeah yeah I know, Seven of Nine...she did revive the tradition of cheese in ST (lost since Troy was made to wear a uniform), so hats off to her).
And Enterprise, poor Enterprise. This bad tempered little disaster was so un Star Trek, even the creators left that name off it at first. Special notice for bringing soft core porn to the series.
As for this upcoming film, I am eager to see how they re-imagine the look and feel of TOS, but taking it beyond the "cardboard" sets of the 1960's.
Sorta like...
