I mean, how did we ever swallow the change from "Vulcanians" in an episode such as this and then accept that "Vulcans" became the standard later. Did Spock not remember what his people were called? Sometimes, you just have to chalk some stuff up to simple human error or a work in progress. :) Having just watched “A Taste of Armegedon” for the first time I must chuckle a little at the concerns for “cannon” with the new movie.

He's supposed to have had a non-Starfleet life and career before he signed up to serve. And Karl Urban will be fine - he really can act.

I thought he was great in LOTR, but admit to having reservations about his portraying the good doctor. His comments have me standing in his camp. I think he gets it. And, Jackson, I think that rather than employing any CGI or in-camera effects, the film makers are going to build the sets 3 inches larger. Which I believe should be the title for the new film: Star Trek XI: 3 Inches Larger! (good thing Harry is in Cancun) I am really liking the casting of Urban.

"Bones" may have not gotten into many fistfights (though I think he did in "Mirror, Mirror"--it has been awhile), but he was never a coward. With that said, let's not typecast Urban as a shoot 'em up/ brawler action guy. perhaps his acting talents are more diverse than that. #10- This will be alot youger McCoy. “Bones” may have not gotten into many fistfights (though I think he did in “Mirror, Mirror”–it has been awhile), but he was never a coward.

"Bones is a great character but never gets into any fights, which is what Urban does best." What the heck does that have to do with anything??!! First of all, Karl is first and foremost a wonderful actor and no, fighting isn't necessarily what he does best. He sort of got thrown into the action type of movies at some point in his career but that's certainly not how he started it. I really wish people would start looking at his entire body of work and actually watch some of his pre-LOTR stuff before typecasting him like this. I'm convinced that he will do a great Bones and that his rendition of the character will be very faithful to the original one. A huge Karl Urban fan #24.

I had to look up the word 'irascible' to find the exact meaning (although I had a general idea what it meant from the context). I'm going to use that word every chance I get for the next month or two. ....and, I will boycott this unless they use special CGI effects and "forced perspective" to make Urban, Pine, and the others appear 3" shorter. I'm sure if there are other fans out there as irascible :) as I am, then there will be many others boycotting over this height issue. ;) Mr. Pascale (and Mr. Urban)…thank you for helping me to improve my vocabulary.
