By the way, I think it’s time for that “EXCELSIOR” TV movie to be made. Takie has never been hotter than he is now! Get on it CBS! (or NBS, or SCI-FI, or whoever…)

Somebody should tell George that Paul Allen (Microsoft’s co-founder), not Bill Gates built the Science Fiction Hall of Fame and Museum.

I think Takei as Admiral Nogura is a great idea (in case I didn’t make that clear in the post above…lol…) One thing though… I think he should grow a beard, or wear a fake beard for the part. I just always pictured the Admiral with a beard. A lot of senior Navy officers tend to have beards, and I think it would be a good look for him, as it would make him look a little different than Sulu.

I’d love to see the new film as part of a trilogy:

Film 1 (Star Trek XI): Kirk meets Spock. Kirk’s first mission as Captain of the Enterprise

Film 2: Threads carry over from film 1. Takes place midway during 5 year mission.

Film 3: The final mission and hero’s return for the crew of the Enterprise.

The three films could serve as a perfect compliment to TOS, filling in the gaps while also standing on its own as a cohesive trilogy.

I have been a Star Trek fan since I was kid and Star Trek came on in Prime Time on NBC, and have enjoyed all the subsequent series, and all the movies to some degree. Having said that, I am really excited about the new movie, and hope it will be a complete re-boot of the series, just as SCIFI’s Battlestar Galactica was a complete re-boot of the glitzy 1978 series.

“Oh my” is right… Lord Garth,

For the “wishers and wanters” above me on the thread, the movie is a TOS movie. I liked all the series too, but get over it. And it’s tiresome to hear “my Trek is better than your Trek” as a constant whiney mantra through every thread. Opinions are cool, but please don’t keep beating everyone else’s head with the same old ones.
This thread is about George. I have to aplaud Mr. Takei. He’s seems to be a genuinely nice man and a good actor. I think we’ll see more depth to his “Heroes” part next season… more than the glimpse from Monday night. He’s comfortable with who he is and I greatly admire that.
Bravo George.

#8 “It’s not too late to introduce the concept to those in charge at Paramount”
Careful Duane, people around here don’t like that kind of talk. The last time I made a “suggestion” like that, I got my ass handed to me post haste!! They stuck my head up my ass and rolled me down the street like a doughnut! Watch how you go, tenderfoot!
