Pat yourself on the back! Think of all the electricity you saved down
in your basement. Cue attack on the Oscars.

It's online, and on OnDemand. And it's the first 15 minutes.

I have since downloaded the whole show, since every women's group is STILL
condemning Seth McFarlane(sp?) for his hosting.
......And I think the whole thing is hilarious,...."we saw your boobs"

And Shatner played his role perfectly.

Yes, I thought it was great!

All these people complaining about the women in the audience's reactions
to "we saw your boobs" clearly didn't understand that they were in on
the joke! Charlize Theron wasn't even IN the audience; she was
backstage in a different outfit, waiting to dance!

I'm not sure they were all in on the joke, but that bit was clearly
pre-taped, all they would have needed was a reaction shot of actresses
disgust to something else, edit it in quickly,...and the magic of cinema
happens.

Of note was the kids who played kirk and uhura in the 2009 abortion trek,
were onstage later in the show as presenters.
And barely got any recognition at all.
So Shatner,...IS STILL, the one and only, James T. Kirk.

William Shatner is an actor. James T. Kirk is a character.
Any actor can play many characters. Any character can be played by many
actors.

Except for obsessed dweebs like you. Grow up.

2009 Trek was hardly an 'abortion'. It was a highly entertaining movie,
and was quite popular. Why? Cause it was FUN! And Chris Pine makes a
great Jim Kirk.

The Kirk character has evolved. Deal with it.

P-Dub: ST fan since 1967. And I am very much looking forward to 'Trek
into Darkness'..

Maybe, maybe not. That's purely an opininon, and arguing opinions is a
pointless stupidity since everyone's opinion is different.

The fact is that it wasn't actually real "Star Trek", and even the people
making it said so - it was "new Trek", "garbagised Trek", "reboot Trek",
"Abrams' Trek", "pretend Trek", "Trek 90210", "Trek Kids", "SmallTrek",
"2009 Trek" ... but NOT even remotely real "Star Trek".

Like most other rebooted garbage, this "new Trek" is very unlikely to last
long before some other idiotic fool decides to "reboot" it again.




> and was quite popular. Why? Cause it was FUN!


Nope. It was "quite popular" simply because it was the latest "big" movie
at the cinema. There's a massive number of stupid morons who go to the
cinema every Friday / Saturday night (and then go and booze themselves
stupider) simply because they can't think of anything else to do. It makes
no difference what the movie is - most of the time they don't like what
they see or don't even bother actually watching it properly. These morons
falsely boost box office numbers and mean the idiots in charge blindly
believe their movie is actually any good, so they stupidly make another
one.

It has very little to do with being a good (or bad) movie, and absolutely
nothing to do with being a real "Star Trek" movie.




> And Chris Pine makes a great Jim Kirk.

>

> The Kirk character has evolved. Deal with it.


Nope. The real Jim Kirk died along with real "Star Trek" when the idiocy
of the TV series "Enterprise" was dreamt up by the Beavis & Butthead
morons. Chris Pine's pretend Jim Kirk is a hopeless waste of space and
time, and is unlikely to last more than a few dismal in-name-only movies.

So - what does this make you - a 'purist' ? LOL.

Star Trek 2009 was REAL Star Trek. It was copyrighted as such. It
featured the Starship Enterprise, Captain Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty,
Uhuru, etc.

It is no longer the one we fell in love with in the 60s. It's all new -
yet it's the same fictional characters, ship, and Federation.

It wasn't perfect. But people flocked into the movies to see it, and it
received many good reviews. It had an implausible story, but that's not
out of the ordinary for Star Trek. Lots of their stories have been
implausible.

And I predict that 'Trek into Darkness' will be, to coin a good phrase,
'fascinating'. It will be science fiction at its finest. It will be
visually stimulating. There will be action, drama, special effects, and
- yes - a STAR TREK story. Beam me up!

No - this is not 1966 Star Trek. But it's every bit REAL Star Trek as
that was. And I applaud the effort.

P-Dub: A REAL Star Trek fan.

Nope. It's fake Trek / crap Trek and pees all over the original. Even the
people making it say it's not the same thing.

Those people who LIKED the 2009 movie probably were already "inebriated"
before going to the theaters.
Of course as you pointed out, some people just will go out every weekend, no
matter WHAT the theater is showing.

Little wonder why the studios no longer care if the quality of movies they
offer is good or not.
Quantity is all that counts.

I think any US consumer now knows that "a name" does not assure a quality
product.
At least decade old Americans names, on new China made products.
Who's money do you think now OWNS the major studios ?

But that's okay,...the K12 sheeple have been conditioned well, and will like
whatever they are told to.

Idiocy: What King "Your Name" does not like. Because only his opinion
counts.

Enterprise was real Star Trek. Your opinion is irrelevant. No, I don't
expect you to understand it.

Finest? Overblown special effects for the 13-yr old dweeb mind and the
same storyline over and over. Madman/phenomenon wants to destroy
universe/planet and only the Enterprise can save it often only by going
back into the past.

No, 1966 Star Trek, and all the other ST TV series, were directed at
adults (while being suitable for children) concerning many different
storylines. No matter how bad individual storylines were, the emphasis
was on writing. Movies are directed at teenagers (and dweebs) who pay
to see it many times with writing geared to that age group and direction
designed to stimulate their limited attention spans.

The point is most movie attendees really couldn't care less,....you could
probably show those people 2 hours of trailers and commercials and they
would STILL happily buy tickets.
Look at the mass group mentality that pays cable or satellite TV fees,....to
watch infomercials and home shopping most of the day.

Or how about explaining people going out for dinner, and then stuffing
themselves with even more overpriced snacks at a movie.
....The studios have trained you sheeple well.

And you still think the TWO are devisively non-inclusive.
Business' that do not provide any type of public service do not last very
long.....or survive on government bailouts.

So by your own admission, Enterprise killed the whole Trek franchise years

And why no more trek TV shows exist

Okay,....I'll accept that.

I said no such thing. Learn to read.
Interest in any franchise dies over time.
In any case, Enterprise was real Star Trek.

Even if self-imposed King "Your Name" thinks otherwise.

It was lauded by reviewers and the public alike. You are dishonest and
a little piece of shit.

Nope. The 2009 film was a great success by universal acclaim. Your
widdle-boy basement opinions don't count for shit.

Millions of fans enjoyed the flick and are awaiting the NEXT ONE.
Entertainment - that's all it is.

By the way, GO I love youRSELF!

Who gives a shit? It's just entertainment. And it is Star Trek. If you
don't like it, go back to playing video games for 19 hours a day. That
is your life - isn't it?

And you go out every weekend to monitor the drinking and viewing
habits of your own age cohort? I doubt it. You have pimples, a thin,
nerdy voice and stay in the basement with video games. A non-entity.

So just because you don't go out you have it in for regular people who
DO have a life? What do you do - dine on caviar and champagne in an
oak-panelled basement while the rest of the world eats Cheetos in the
parking lot?

Ya ya ya,......I hear the same self-righteous bullshit from politicians who
keep telling us the economy is booming too.
The economy is tanking, and so is the trek franchise, after these lastest
movies.

No. The franchise is THRIVING. The recent film was a critical and
financial success.

Sunday afternoon! Sitting here watching "Die Hard 4.0" whilst I wait for
the F1 GP to start, when who should I see ..... while what should I
hear, really, (as I'm sitting here working on my computer) but the
dulcet tones of Tuvok (Tim Russ), playing one of the Good Guy FBI
agents. Seems he's only in it for one scene!! or did I miss him other
times??

If it's said fast enough, it might even be possible to get all the way
through without bursting into laughter, or tears. ;-)

Anyone with more than a single braincell know the Star Trek franchise is a
confused mess. The real "Star Trek" franchise is dead. The pretend "Star
Trek" now in it's place is just a sub-franchise, at best.
