This is the first Trek movie I have an interest in seeing since the first one.

Thanks for the head up, Celeste.

Instead, we had the "Motion Picture" that tried to make it into 2001, all effects and no human story...

The next two films, Wrath of Khan and Search for Spock, actually got it right, in my opinion. The boxoffice seems to back me up on that. They were the two most successful films of the series so far.

The others all seemed flawed in various ways... the whales movie was pretty contrived, the one directed by Shatner was... well, awful, and "Generations" got a little over the top with the baton transfer. It wasn't until "First Contact" that they really hit the note again, stressing the action and character development.

The other two TNG films just didn't really capture the imagination...

Let's hope Abrhams does something really wonderful with the original characters. With luck, he might actually be following Vonda McIntyre's "Enterprise" in tone and story. (The Trek novel that doubles as a doorstop!)

But, it did get awfully soapy at times. And the story arc got so insular that if you didn't get into the show from the beginning, you got totally lost.

Trek had the same problems at times. As much as the Trek folk like to act like it's something brand new and shiny, this type of space opera has been around for close to 60 years... (longer if you count radio) It's closest relative is the old "Space Patrol" show.

If I had my druthers, "Farscape" and "Firefly" would still be on. Of course, the single best series I've ever seen never made it past the two hour pilot: "Plymouth."

Straczynski was smart enough to walk away from Joe "Cheesy"'s Amazing Spider-man fiasco, and took his name off the books.

A parallel example:

When we saw Val Kilmer as Batman, we said the same thing..

Then there was George Clooney.

My only real problem with Straczynski is the amazing number of flat out lies he's told over the years about the spiraling out of control B5 plot that his sycophants have swallowed hook, line and sinker. He always intended to change captains, He always meant to kill off Ivanova's girlfriend right after the lesbian plot got started, Even though the series finale was shown in season 4 and Straczynski said it was the end he always intended to have a fifth season etc. etc..

1) Well, if he didn't change captains, how could Sinclair have left and become Valen?

2) Maybe. The Howard Stern Rule is: "Lesbians equals Ratings". I don't know why anyone would mess with that formula.

3) Season 4/5. When word came down that there wasn't a network anymore, and that there *wouldn't* be a season 5, they discarded all the "filler" episodes and condensed the Season 4 and Season 5 arcs to fit. THEN they got the money for a 5th season, and had to fill it out. *THAT* caused some plotting problems.
