This time, I assume, we won't have a situation where the movie producers are butting heads with a p***ed-off show creator trying to regain control of a franchise that dumped him!

"Effect" as a verb is rare, and never in the way it was used in the above article. This kind of deal (no TV until movie is out) is pretty typical in Hollywood, and it makes complete sense. No dilution. TrekNerd: go back and re-read the page. “Effect” as a verb is rare, and never in the way it was used in the above article.

Huh? Dude... Did you forget Insurrection? Insurrection plus Nemesis = 2 bad ones back to back... At least that's my opinion. Perhaps not yours. Anyway, if it's 3 for 3, I think we can forget about any more Trek...ever. This one had better be Wrath of Khan good...or else.

My only concern is that if this movie uses the TOS iconography, which I think it will, where can a series go? Surely the movie actors wouldn't go to TV, at least not all of them, for money reasons, so they would have to re-recast the iconic roles. And if they did that, what shape would the next movie take? As for Shatner and Nimoy, that's a no brainer. They will sell tickets. Nothing is "new". Certainly the spinoffs were not really revolutionary. What is needed is a good story and script, that will please everyone. Well, almost. Personally, I think that although Trek story possiblities are endless, boldly going anywhere on film cost mucho dollars--which is probably why a "Q" movie never got made. I think Trek might need a revamp (meaning a well-researched tune-up, not the cliched gritty/dark/realistic makeover-- if can't wow 'em, scare 'em routine) but that costs, too. One more thing--please use a physical model in this movie, please.
