ooh that'd be neat. at least i get to relax instead of a stressful commute. bah, i hate commuting!

i don't know. the basic premise of the whole thing to me is like having jean grey... except she's fighing with weapons. >_< i guess i just never got it. maybe if there was no "force" whatever it would have been easier to consume. why exactly do they need weapons (inneficent ones at that)? and what's the deal with that "force" thing. why do you need it to use weapons?

There seems to be a new generation of kids out there who don't seem to value Star Trek as much. I know Star Trek has been seen as light fluff through out its life, but then you read about all the inventors, movie producers, heck even astronauts, who were influenced by TOS. And yet now a days? Star Trek, the newer versions, don't seem to ilicit that kind of awe...why do you think that is??? Competition? Was TOS over-rated???

What must Star Trek do to regain its mojo, or is it there..as it always has been.

There seems to be a new generation of kids out there that don't value anything as much. Just an observation.

Let's face it, there is a lot of competition and ST has put out a lot of crappy episodes starting with TOS.

Yeah, there's too much other competition from rival SF series these days. Star Trek used to be in a genre of one. Now the kids have Star Wars, Stargate, BSG, Heroes, all kinds of genre shows to sink their teeth into. Trek has lost its uniqueness.

I believe Star Trek is in hibernation for the nonce. The world has turned very dark recently, and we have our immediate concerns to occupy us. The 401k crowds out my sense of wonder and I have less time for Kirk and Sisko, my favorite two Captains and their crews.

Rick Berman did not help Star Trek much, either.

That last comment about Berman is my personal opinion.

I hope that I do not offend someone by mentioning him?
