Uh, Star Wars vs. Trekkies?  

JJ Abrams couldn't make me see it either. I am already disapointed in him for Cloverfield. I haven't even seen Clerks, the first one. Is it worth renting? And if it is, would the sequel be worth seeing? I can always netflix it.

The first one was okay, the second was excellent. But, it's very crude, gross humor. Typically I don't love gross humor, but I love Jay and Silent Bob. If you like them, you'd like it.

I haven't. Is it true they they are having Leonard Nimoy do a cameo in the new film?

That's what I've heard too. But no "old" Kirk.

Yes, and William Shatner was ticked off at that exclusion.

I actually saw a trailer for the new movie a couple of night ago - darned if I can remember what I was watching. I had also seen a pic online of an Entertainment Weekly cover with the actors playing Kirk and Spock. Ole Skylar (can't remember his real name, and I'm WAAAAYYYYY too lazy to pull up imdb.com this morning) pulls off the Spock look pretty well, considering his natural abundance of eyebrow, LOL. When I saw the trailer, even in the short shots, it seems like if you can see him in action, the semblance is even more obvious than in the still picture.

The guy playing young Kirk, though... I don't see it. But I am looking forward to seeing the actor from "Sean of the Dead" playing Scottie! I don't think look-wise he is a dead-on ringer, but I think he will have the right amount of attitude. Hope he doesn't OVER do it, however.

Oh, in case you couldn't guess, I am looking forward to seeing this. :)

I've seen the three older movies. They used to come on TV all the time when I was a teenager. I've not seen any of the new Star War prequels. I don't really have any interest in them.

Me either!!

Right, because we are going to see comedy right after skating in Chicago...

I like the first Star Wars the best, too, pola. But I am wondering when was the last time you watched the first Star Wars? I watched it again about a year ago, and I was shocked as to how s l o w a movie it is!! I still love it, though. It's the best!

I guess we should not ask Transdisc to go skating and to a comedy with us. He'd rather hang out with Darth Vader and play with laser beams.

The "Force" is going to be with us and the comedy....
Jedi and supernatural is going to be with us....

When I saw first Star Wars, it was phenomena in cinematography....I was very young and in love with Jedi...it was my kind of man....

I saw Star Wars when I was very young as well, pola. The theater was packed. It was the opening week and my dad took the whole family. I think that he was more excited about seeing it than I.

Poor, poor, Its. Not laser beams. Light sabers!

The first move may seems slow now, but at least I could understand the action...
In new Star Wars nobody is able to translate English to English....

Yes, I know I lead an empty life without light sabers and whatever the heck else you said. I hope I can find a way to go on living.

Oh Faith, you need to play Flowpoi....

Will you be seeing the new movie?

only when it hits the tv

Did you get a picture? I bet they had a heck of a lot of fun!

There is a photo or two somewhere around, Ambie. Heehee. I wasn't there and only heard about it with awe. But I bet if I dig around I could find those photos.

Hmmm...could they possibly work as blackmail?

Yes, blackmail. Of course!

If you really want to see a reason for blackmail you should see the photo of my dad where he looks like a leprochaun. It's hilarious! (He wasn't supposed to look like a leprochaun.)

Thanks for Best Response!

I can't do the greeting! And it vexes me (I put the vex in for Transdisc). My mom and sister can do it, but I sit alone, unable to properly tell people to live long and prosper.

I find it vexing as well. ;)

How many Star Trek TV shows have there been? I know of two, but there have been more I think. One had Whoopi Goldberg.

According to Wikepedia

1 The Original Series (1966–1969)
2 The Animated Series (1973–1974)
3 Phase II
4 The Next Generation (1987–1994)
5 Deep Space Nine (1993–1999)
6 Voyager (1995–2001)
7 Enterprise (2001–2005)

Wow!

Yeah, I did not know that there were as many. I did not continue watching after the second tv series as it sort of felt different but I did like the movies. When I look back now, at the original show that I grew up with, it is corny, but it was still fun. Boy, the special effects were funny!
