Every time I read about this movie, the respect for JJ really shines through, as a brit (and geek) i love hearing what Simon Pegg has to say and Mr Cho certainly makes me laugh.

Congrats on baby Cho… Live long and……

“…I think we are trying to be respectful of the original series and we’re also trying to get some new fans, do things differently and put a younger, more vigorous spin on it.”

That remark scares me, especially since these days “younger” usually means “dumber” and “more brainless.”

Honestly, the youth-obsessed nature of our society is sickening, especially since it cuts out the richer aspects of having a society that is tolerant of older people and things.

Congratulations, John Cho. Now, if only he was having a girl, he could call her “Demora!” Best of luck to the Cho family.

#19 There is no legacy of Asian American stars because we Asian Americans are so provincially focused on SATs and GREs and CPAs and Actuarial Exams and MCATs and GMATs.

#13 Mentions of recreational drugs in Star Trek: I only recall Kirk talking about LSD in STIV and the coke-like “beetlesnuff” from DS9…oh yeah, and the quite dubious invention of “Trellium-D” in Enterprise lol.

Congrats John & Kerri!

Take a look at a very interesting interview John Cho has up at Fancast where he talks about the difficulties – a glass ceiling – that Asian actors face in Hollywood. There’s not been a lot of homegrown talent in the Asian-Amer. community in the U.S. The interview is at
http://bigpicture.fancast.com/2008/04/interview_john_cho_speaks_on_t.html

Excerpt from Cho: “There’s this lingering sense that there is a glass ceiling for you. More specifically, it’s tough because there isn’t a legacy of Asian-American stars. A lot of young actors get their break by playing the son or the daughter. That’s how you get in a big movie, you play De Niro’s son in a movie, like DiCaprio, and that’s a big break. I don’t have that luxury. Asian-American actors don’t have that luxury. We also can’t take part in certain – we’re American actors, but it’s hard to take part in historical dramas. You can’t be in The Patriot.”

arrrr…

I tried to feed me infink White Castles once but he had none o’ that!
Wimpy liked them tho…

JJ sounded like Orson Welles now? arrrrr…

I have me new ep in chat683 an’ more latter this day … it’s gettin’ weird in there wit’ Ruskies and such… jolly good but stay oot

anyways… all shootin’ be done… all actors can do is write down thar anecdotes to use next year at tha junkets… If asked a tough question, at least Cho could chuck his baby at them and run…

arrrr… good for him, tho…
