I'm never cynical. Life is too short for that.

Tell that to the cynics.
One thing we can remember is those who gave us Nemesis are not involved in this outing and that should give us some comfort. These folks seem to be big fans, not as overboard as some of us (raises hand) and seem to care about giving us something we'll really love. That makes me excited.
Does no one remember that the "Nemesis" people were huge fans?
I also remember that the director wasn't and there were problems on the set.
Mission accomplished! :thumbsup:
There has never been anyone who worked above the line on "Star Trek" who was not a "big fan of the show."
Even the many actors who never watched the show before being cast.
Seriously.
The standard answer goes along the following lines:
"Oh yeah, definitely a big fan. I mean, I could never tell you what deck Spock's quarters were on, but the show was always on the TV when I was growing up. My brother was really into it, and I remember always thinking that there was something unique about it.
"The show foreshadowed so much that's come to pass in our world. Like cell phones and contact with other planets.
"Gene Roddenberry...what can I say that hasn't been said? The man was truly a visionary."

When I took my username I had no idea there was such baggage behind it. Truely. I was so naive back then. 
This is cool. Berman never would've done something like this. He was always a bit too aloof from the fans.
What she said.
Has nothing to do with the topic...but I think this quite often myself.
hi guys...glad you enjoyed the chat and sorry for the tech issues. They only gave me a few hours to prepare for it and said 'it will be fine' I asked them to wait until I could do something more elaborate which we are working on...but after the first hour it worked fine.
