I'm being a bit sarcastic here, this is a good thing not a bad thing. I'm glad Star Trek at last has realized hey its a business and needs to have a broad based appeal. More over I'm impressed any other business would vie for a spot to have its products included in said enterprise.

This also tells me they're treating this as it were a blockbuster movie that does reach beyond Trek cultists to actual human beings.

From the link not all fans feel the same.

was that an unintentional pun you made?

Yup

A misspelled one at that

This is cool, though the comments in that article amuse me, apparently those people have no clue of the previous commercial tie-ins for Star Trek.

Why burgar king? None of their food is any good. Atleast McDonalds has good fries.

Yeah went back thought I could fix it no doing.

Those comments amuse me as well. They seem pretty shortsighted.

It's only logical that they serve this drek aboard Starfleet ships... What with the waste-to-food re-sequencers.... Turning a turd into a Whopper takes far less power than it does to replicate a plate of pasta from scratch.

For a limited time, plomeek soup will be on the dollar menu.

Too bad they didn't think of this in time for the TOS cast. They could've had a tie-in like the Kirk Burger. It's all ham and cheese. (Budda-bing!)

Or re-badge the McFish as the McKoi for a couple of weeks. Geddit?? Geddit???

Sorry.

Hopefully, this will prove successful at the box office!

I take it that was ''sarcasm''?

You snobs, Burger King is awesome.

Nice photoshop, but everyone (40 years old and over) knows...

Photoshop? It reall look that good. That was the default paint program.

Nope, I don't like burger king. McD's fries on the other hand, them and DQ's fries are IMO the best.

Although Sonic is quickly climbing the list now that we have one in town.

Why did you put that song into my head? Why, I oughtta -- ! Take this:
The bigger the burger, the better the burger.
The burgers are bigger at Burger King.
Home of the Whopper.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go play with my Klingon Happy Meal from the STMP tie-in with McDonalds from way back in 1979.

Edited to add: Oh, and don't forget to have it your way. Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce, special orders don't upset us.

Live Long & Whopper.

He didn't ask how much comes out when you're done, he asked how much it cost.
