I've not actually seen Nemesis come to think of it

The Enterprise E was nearly destroyed in First Contact but Data deactivated the self destruct. In Insurection they had to eject the warp core and in Nemesis they lost most of it when they rammed the Reman ship.
I don't really like the idea of them going back to Kirks era i'd rather them focus on after Voyager. |

The original set of movies managed to avoid destroying the Enterprise or necessarily putting it in self destruct/blowing it up/crippling it at every opportunity. Sure, it did happen (Star Treks 2,3 and possibly Undiscovered Country depending...Pardon me for not remembering the title...), but it seemed to be hardly as prevalent. The same's an issue with Voyager, where the Self Destruct was armed like every 3 episodes. At least with Enterprise, the dire jeopardy made sense: We were using infancy technology against established technology. As bad as the show was, and it was bad, it fit better. It's just that, eventually, it gets repetitive, boring, and every day is the end of the world. They managed to make threats seem impressive in the past without resorting to this shit. |

It was an okay movie, but a bad send-off for the TNG crew. |

Yes it was a poor way to end this line, if that is the case (it does seem to be) When the movie was made, I don't think however that was the intention, so it's not like it was poor execution on their part.

Hmmm, Matt Damon is no longer listed on the IMDB entry for this, it seems like it could've been hearsay that got out of hand. I'm sure he's a candidate but its obviously not finalised yet.

J.J. Abrams confirmed as 'Star Trek' director Posted December 7, 2006 at 10:28 AM Central Time By John Couture In one of the industry's worst kept secrets, Viacom CEO Philippe Dauman confirmed this week that J.J. Abrams will indeed be at the helm of Star Trek XI. In case you've been living in on a not-so-deserted island these past few years, Abrams is the brains behind the hit TV shows Lost and Alias. J.J. also made his feature-length directing debut earlier this year on Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible III. The long-rumored storyline of Star Trek XI centers on original Starfleet officers Kirk and Spock's first meeting at the Starfleet academy. Summer 2008 is still being pegged as the possible release date. |

Eric Bana has been added as the villain 'Nero'. Gotta be honest, Eric Bana is the man. Also Zoe Saldana set to play Uhura looks damn hot |

Dunno, he was pretty good in Smokin Aces, I have faith that casting a character as pivotal as Kirk wouldn't be done lightly by Abrams.

He was only rumored last I checked.
Anyway, my father mentioned that he'd read something about them recasting Scotty and someone else to play elder versions of themselves in this movie. There's a decent chance they show up at the end, or the beginning or something. |

Simon Pegg is English right? I thought Scotty was supposed to be Scottish.

It is a possibility (only a possibility I admit) that Pegg can do a Scottish accent, James Doohan wasn't Scottish either afterall. |

My question is, are the klingons going to look like the klingons of the original star trek, just kinda ugly, or will they look like klingons of the Next Gen and afterwards, the really ugly ones. BTW, I'm marking out a little. I just hope the don't fuck it up like Voyager.

I always wondered why they cancelled enterprise. Then I saw an episode the other day with the big show in and understood completly The thing is with enterprise they starting doing shit, like reintroducing the borg which just was fucking stupid. The first couple of seasons were good then in just turned gay. Hopefully they dont do similar stupid things with this movie where they try to add a significant plot which is nether mentioned in the original.
