I'm looking forward to it Very Muchly.

Going to be interesting to see local lad, Karl Urban, as Bones!!!

What better birthday could a girl ask for!!!!

I lost interest in Star Trek when they joined forces with Greenpeace and made 'Geriatrics in Space Save the Whale.'

That was too much and I have never watched another Star Trek offering since.

Firefly is good though.

Never heard of this star trek thing. Is it a take off of star wars or something??

Wait, was "Pigs in Space" part of Star Trek??

Be warned, I will not accept any bad comments about Star Trek or any of its offshoots, or else I'll have to transport into your house and perform the Klingon mind meld on you........I'll be watching

It's life Jim.....

IMHO, the last good Star Trek movie was Insurection, last good series was Voyager. I haven't got my hopes up for this movie.

heh:

Voyager was crap. Enterprise was crap. TNG was better than TOS. DS9 was a good idea badly executed by over indulged B-Grade actors.

JJ Abrams will have his own take on the concept and it will miss Gene Roddenberry's point completely.

JJ Abrams is the last person I would have entrusted the franchise to, but since that dork Berman got hold of it it's done nothing but get more and more unwatchable. Now that Majel is dead, GR Jnr is going to be made to watch Star Trek turn into "Lost" in Space.

The trailer makes me ill.

McJim, Firefly is rubbish. SG-1 and SG Atlantis kick it's butt. Farscape was by far the best TV Sci-Fi of the last 20 years.

BG is starting to grow on me, but the latest twist of turning main protaganists into Cylon clones is BS.

The above is MNSHO and therefore 100% correct and the rest of you are all wrong.

I'm looking forward to Race to Witch Mountain more than Star Trek.

Although I didn't like Firefly I was quite partial to Serenity but yes SG1 and Atlantis are both far superior, although I think SG1 lost something when Richard Dean Anderson retired

Farscape was very good but I'd rate Lexx it's equal

I can only do it left handed

Serenity was great. The irony in that is that it was proof positive that the idea behind Firefly couldn't sustain a series. It was one movie's worth of material. Firefly didn't have a Sci-Fi feel to it. It was a Western TV series stuck on a cheap space set.

Lexx the TV Series was awesome, and has it's roots in far better quality Sci-Fi than anything in this thread. Lexx, the Charlize Theron vehicle was utter bilge.

A Vulcan mind meld would be more effective
