I'm hopeful about the movie, but I'm also concerned. It seems to be changing a lot of things about ST, and while I agree that that is necessary for any series that's been around half as long as Trek, there's always the concern that they could be changing the wrong things. I guess I'm worried about it in the sense that I'm worried about LotR. I hope it will be good, but it will be such an awful disappointment if it isn't. I really want to see Data and Worf and the others off in a manner befitting their characters, and I would hate it if they wound up falling down a gorge like Kirk.

I have very little expectations of this movie. As such, I am sure that it will exceed them. I hope that it will be at least have a bunch of cool action even if it doesn't have much substance. And I hope that the characters that I really like go out with dignity.

No one's DYING guys. A few are leaving the Enteprise and Picard's command, but that's it really.

Really? That's good. But I hope that what they end up doing is something good. Not just oh I'm going to retire to my vineyard in France like Picard might do.

One crewmember dies. But probably 'not really' if you know what I mean. If you've seen the preview, you could take a guess. Think WOK.

Hm I think the crew can't die, they still have to make guest appearances on Enterprise and Enterprise: The Motion Picture.

Well, because A) that would have represented continuity, which is verbötten to the philosophy of Dumb and Dumber, and B) because a whole plot element involves Picard's EvilClone™ Skippy psychically seducing/raping Counsellor Troi —and even Dumb and Dumber haven't the guts to try any sort of twisted lesbian angle in BragaTrek™.

Besides which, not only did Sela not have any telepathic powers, it's more likely that after the failure of her Great Plan to conquer Vulcan with one Warbird and 2000 combat troops, that Sela the Incompetent was executed very shortly afterward. You have to wonder if she even got a trial...

Ugh. Lesbian sex between who? Deanna Troi was quite attractive a decade ago- but now ... too old.

There's a transporter "accident" so we can see T'Pol on T'Pol or 7 on 7 or maybe make it a foursome? :D

She wasn't even all that attractive back then.

They didn't have the flashing spinning ball look in Insurrection either. We also see them come from the same location that the torpedoes from Insurrection came from.
I still miss the TOS Photon Torpedo effect.
Now THAT looked like something you did not want to be on the reciving end of 8)
And they looked a LOT faster...What is with these SLOW torpedoes they have now :?

Agreed, it was just the best that they had back at the time. She didn't have to be all that good looking, just the best of them, for the trekkies to go wild. That wouldn't happen today though with T'pol and 7 running around in skin tight clothing.

Haha. Desperate Trekkies.

Though I prefer Hoshi and Dax.
