Trekmovie.com is hosting a video from G4 that states that Nemesis bombed because we're done with the Next Generation crew.
Is that really what people think?
Nemeis bombed because it was an obvious crappy remake of Star Trek II. Also, there was the dune buggy. And B4. And Shinzon. And the viceroy dude. And Will and Deanna finally got hitched but they didn't show the wedding. And Wil Wheaton sitting there in the background because his scene got cut and by the way, Liz Shatner, Wil has not retired from acting.
There were good things about Nemesis, but they just got drowned by the dune buggy. And then when you might notice, at the end, that Data finally got to be human (sort of), you don't notice, because Will Riker's standing there going, "When I first met Data, he was trying to whistle. Funniest thing you ever heard. What was the song? I can't remember the song!" and seventeen people (me included) yelled "Pop Goes the Weasel!" and added a "you dumb shit!" silently in our heads.
So yeah, Nemesis was crap, but I'm not done yet. My childhood was spent with TNG, my adolescence with DS9, and I grew up with Voyager (I graduated from high school less than a week after the finale) and I'm dammed if I'm gonna let them go. Not that I'm not excited about this movie, but this is not the Trek I grew up with.
And as a side note, some would say that makes me less of a Trekkie. Well, Screw you! I am more Trekkie than some people will ever be. Star Trek has been my world for my entire life, nothing will ever stop me from defining my world in terms of Star Trek. Just because I hadn't been born yet in 1966 does not mean I don't get to share in your little club, people.
Back to my main topic. I believe this movie CAN WORK. I believe in Leonard Nimoy, who likes the script and has always been right about the relative success or failure of every movie. I believe in Zachary Quinto with his identical-to-Nimoy nose. I believe in the selling power of Jim Kirk. I believe in the fan-ness of John Logan, who will never be invited to a Star Trek convention, but who I will always want to meet. I believe in the good intentions of Rick Berman (at least in the beginning) and the creative genius of Michael Piller. I believe in the favouritism of Kathryn Janeway and the emotionalisim of Jim Kirk. I believe that Jonathan Archer was an idiot and but Trip and T'Pol (not their romance, because that was dumb) totally made up for it.
I believe in the enduring power of Star Trek.

The Major Drawback of Linux
So, I discovered today how easy it is to screw up your linux machine while your computer boots up. In Windows, you can type anything and it has no effect. My cat broke my computer while it was booting up this morning. I don't know what she did, even, but it can no longer update itself. Quite tragic.

A J.J. Abrams Quote.
"The truth is, it needs to be worthy of him, it needs to be worthy of you, it needs to be worthy of the movie."
-J.J. Abrams

Comic-Con 2007, on the new Star Trek movie
The Undiscovered Country
The bad thing about the new movie DVDs is the bonus disc. You watch the movie and then you're forced to sit through featurettes that contain little smidges of good information instead of being done. For example: watch Undiscovered Country with the Nicholas Meyer/Denny Martin Flynn commentary and then watch the special features. Nick Meyer only has so much more to say. You have to wait unitl Christopher Plummer or Leonard Nimoy pops up to hear anything good.

Excitement
I was on my way to the dentist today around 3. I was looking forward to parking myself on the computer and waiting, but teeth wait for no one and neither do fifty dollar missed appointment fees. So I was standing at the bus stop, singing.
And I realized I was singing "New Star Trek Mo-vie!" over and over and over.
And then it hit me. Despite the things I've seen that make me doubt. Despite Mission: Impossible 3 and Alias and Lost and Transformers and that quote of Orci's that made me think he's never seen DS9, I am excited about this movie. I will continue to be excited about this movie until it lets me down. Or maybe I'll be excited about this movie until it's a raging success.
After all, Leonard Nimoy seems to like it.

Zachary Quinto and more
It's Official
This TVGuide.com article confirms the story, so that's that I guess. Houston, we have Spock. I really need to go watch Heroes.And JJ's Work
I watched the only movie Netflix shows when you type in "JJ Abrams" and I wasn't impressed with what I saw. In fact, I was bored. This does not bode well. The movie is Six Degrees of Separation and it was about Will Smith playing a gay con man who was just really disturbed. It doesn't actually have what I might call an ending of any kind and it was basically just kind of dull.Monday, July 23, 2007

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier
With the possible exception of Nemesis, this is the silliest Trek movie. Kirk falls off a mountain, Chekov and Sulu get lost in the woods, Uhura confesses her undying love for - get this - Scotty, Scotty collides with a low hanging pipe and gets knocked out after saying "I know this ship like the back of my hand", and Spock and McCoy somehow managae to overcome mind control for Kirk. Too bad that didn't work in "This Side of Paradise" when McCoy really needed that mint julep or Spock was chasing the non-Hawaiian Hawaiian around.Witch Mountain etc.
Witch Mountain
They're remaking Escape to Witch Mountain. I like that movie. Okay, note to self - go find my copy of the book and read it again, then rent the movie and watch that, then try and remember why I liked the thing because I'll undoubtedly decide I hate it and it's for seventies kids or possibly today's kids... or else I'll love it and want to watch it over and over and over and then I'll go see the new one and be all pissed off because they went and ruined the thing and now that I think of it, wasn't there already a TV movie of this because I think there was (it was very different and a big disappointment).Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
A couple of guys on ACIN have published a SPOILER HEAVY SPOILER HEAVY chat about the new book. It goes into great wonderful detail about reactions to things that happen in the book that I can't talk about and ironically disses spoilers.Star Trek XI
Leonard Nimoy likes the script, which says to me that it's very good. Also, reading between the lines of the conversation I linked to yesterday, it sounds like Nimoy's role will be post-Generations Spock.William Shatner discusses how he isn't upset about not being in the new movie on his LiveVideo Page. I can't tell if he's faking or not, the man plays things pretty close to the vest, but it's obvious he knows more than he's pretending to not know.

Great Fanfic Quotes
That’s beyond the pale, Harry!” Lee moaned. “I’ll do almost anything you ask; I’ll work hard, I’ll fight wand-to-wand with Death Eaters, I’ll even die if I have to, but I joined the D.A. with the unspoken understanding that I would never be forced to see Fred or George’s bits!”

Star Trek III: The Search for Spock
Kirk goes looking for a rotting corpse and ends up getting a brain-dead body. McCoy gets possessed by a ghost, and at the end everything is right as rain.Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Kirk and Spock wander around 1986 San Francisco looking for whales. Scotty, McCoy, and Sulu wander around looking for plexiglass. Chekov and Uhura wander around looking for nuclear wessles. Guess who ends up being interrogated by the CIA (but I'm sure JJ Abrams would say it was really S.D. 6)?Matt Damon and others
Matt Damon will NOT be Playing Kirk.
There's also a great video here where Shatner and Nimoy discuss the movie while saying NOTHING of any great newsworthiness.William Shatner's video offerings
William and Lisabeth discuss John Larroquette, what Denny Crane should ride,how he and James Spader spent their break, and his favorite episode.Speaking of...

This articleis about fan film and how cool it is. Personally, I've never seen any but I hope to soon. I mean, if you think about it, Serenity was just one big fan film.Borg War
The Trek convention in Las Vegas in August will host a first - the first Star Trek convention to have a feature-length unauthorized Star Trek movie debut. I would be pretty psyched about this, especially since I'll be at that convention and I love the whole fanfilm concept, but the thing is called Borg War.Borg. War.
Yeah... wasn't that the last four seasons of Voyager? Did anyone universally like the last four seasons of Voyager? Because I'd be kind of surprised.
Notes
Alfre Woodard will be in a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie in November.Kelsey Grammer's new movie should be out in 2008.
Olivia d'Albo will be in the new episode of Eureka on Tuesday on the Sci-fi Channel.

What was a little scary is that I was mostly right in my own predictions. Either I have a hidden genuis or JKR is really predictable.

JJ Abrams is totally stealing from The Fifth Element and it's working. If you go to AIC, you can learn all about the thing. Okay, something about the thing. Okay, nothing whatsoever about the thing. Isn't this fun?
This may be from Deathly Hallows
"Chapter One. The Dark Lord Ascending. The two men appeared out of nowhere, a few yards apart in the narrow, moonlit lane. For a second they stood quite still, wands pointing at each other's chests: then, recognising each other, they stowed their wands beneath their cloaks and set off, side by side, in the same direction.
"News?", asked the taller of the two.
"The best," replied Snape.'"
This excerpt was seen in film footage shot in October 2006. We don't know if it's real or not, and if it is... it doesn't show much. Cool though, huh?

Today on the X-Files
All Things
Mulder and Scully have sex. Maybe. Or not. Maybe she fell asleep on his couch. But then why does she feel the need to put her shirt back on? Oh, and she had an affair with her med school professor back in the day and now God's speaking to her in a Buddhist temple.

Today on Star Trek
Return to Tomorrow
Damn it Kirk, didn't you learn anything from "The City on the Edge of Forever"? A man from the 20th century ends up on board, and Kirk considers not returning him because he's not gonna do anything important. But his unborn son is. Kirk's not that bright.
The Return of the Archons
You have got to be kidding me. Who knew Sulu was a quick-change artist? For once, Kirk shows some promise by not beaming down to a primitive and unknown planet in his uniform. Nice work, Kirk. Scotty manages to make the impossible sound plausible, McCoy gets brainwashed, Spock wears Andre the Giant's costume from "The Princess Bride" and Chekov isn't in the episode, which is a good thing because he probably would just tell us how Russia invented smashing windows. Oh, and Uhura does nothing remarkable. Again.
