Heh...how about a crossover between the show "The Real McCoys" and TOS?
Carn-sarn-it, Jim! I just an old hillbilly doctor.
Star Trek XI dishonors original by existing
- Thread starter ancient
- Start date
Carn-sarn-it, Jim! I just an old hillbilly doctor.
DeSanto and Singer were already doing it better, but they stopped because of 9/11. Or X-Men. Or Ron Moore. One of those.
BTW, ancient? You forgot Klingons. Who were always smooth-headed, and have always stayed that way. This new film would be like, putting bumps on their heads or something, and then never explaining it! Clearly something the old guard would never have done.
All Trek mader after The Cage is a complete abomination..
Was that the one with Walter Brennan?Heh...how about a crossover between the show "The Real McCoys" and TOS?

huh, how many times are you going to say goodbye forever????
Yup...though I must have grown up seeing repeats as it appears to have gone off the air before I turned 1 year old.Was that the one with Walter Brennan?Heh...how about a crossover between the show "The Real McCoys" and TOS?

As many times as it takes to make Abrams see the error of his ways.
The shuttle dirt issue is bad, but the primitive controls are intolerable. TOS never used buttons or switches because it was REAL.
The next thing you know someone will decide to put wood panels all over the ship, or worse yet make the security station entirely out of wood. Thank god something like that never happened, it would've fallen flat on it's face.
Exactly. The original creators had respect for canon. They'd never change the make-up to give the Klingons or Romulans some stupid foam forehead. If they had, Trek would've FAILED. Especially if they didn't spend at least a few episodes devoted to explaining it in great detail.
Trek did not have a single continuity problem when GR & Co. still ran things. Because they knew that any continuity problems would make Trek DIE.
To protest Abrams's possible continuity FLAWS I shall continue to not post here.
Goodbye forever!

I think anyone with an honest view point has to agree. I mean the uniforms and characters aren't even the same for the next episode.... what a joke

To correct myself, and be more accurate, it should actually be, "Carn-sarn-it, Jim-Bob! I'm just an old hillbilly doctor."
And there'd be a still on the Enterprise. Keeping the still in working order and not having it blow up would be as important to Scotty as keeping his warp engine core from breeching.
Kirk: Scotty, we need more 'shine in ten minutes or we're all sober.
Scotty: I'm distilling as fast as I can, captain. You can only coax so much liquor from these stills! She's at one quart per hour now.
Kirk: Then I need two quarts per hour!
Scotty: But she'll blow up.
Spock: Mr. Scott, try adding more copper tubing and burn a cleaner flame.
Scotty: Aye, Mr. Spock. That may just work.
Spock: Jim-Bob, I suggest we add soda water to our existing stock of moonshine. It'll stretch it out until Mr. Scott can deliver more.
Kirk: That may just buy us some time.
I want to see a new series in which Captain Geordi and his hilarious sidekick and retarded foster brother B4, run the ship. It will be kind of like "The Love Boat" meets TNG. White uniforms. Shorts and tall socks. And then anyone and everyone can guest star on it. Even Shatner. Especially Shatner, he could be a recurring guest star.

Umm... no it isn't. The fans don't want star trek to wither away and die. They want more.
Guess you've been asleep since 1987 and TNG,DS9,Voyager and Enterprise.
If cheesy effects,fake looking aliens and a hammy,over the top captain is your cup of tea then watch your DVDs.
Again, where were you when TNG was made? You were probably one of those people who said "A bald captain? A klingon on the bridge? A woman docotr? Star Trek is dead!"
Oh boy. That was a good one. The original show had a budget that was barely above a good radio show. The aliens were fake as hell even by 1960s standards and the uniforms were.. shall we say, interesting.
No you're not. Again, you have the original 79 episodes on DVD. Nothing that is done in the future will change that. But you are way off the mark by saying that the original creators wouldn't change a thing. TNG was done by rodenberry himself with the express purpose of being different from the original show.You can't be stuck in the 1960s. Thank goodness their moving forward and giving Star Trek a kick in the pants.
I suggest we show our disgust at hollywood having an interest in the dried dead bones of star trek by raping and pillaging the paramount studios. And than we force them to put every TOS actor in the story line. Because god know that the worst way to get people into trek is to give them trek.
I'll bring the pitchforks, I think anienct is bringing the boiling oil and the torches. Hopefully someone brings along a video camera so we can post our exploits on Youtube.

I don't post here often, so excuse me for taking the words of the Op at face value.
Abrams thinks he can change Trek's style and get away with it. 
As we all know, the Original Creators (tm) never did that. Trek was TIMELESS. In the 60's they had TIMELESS hippie stoner aliens and bright skimpy outfits. In TMP they had TIMELESS pastel colors and huge porn'stashes. In TNG they had TIMELESS beige carpet and faux wood.
As these examples show, Trek was never a product of its time and neigther should Abrams's Trek. The Original Creators did everything in EXACTLY the same style for 30 years because they respected us.
IT WAS TIMELESS, TREK SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY STYLE IT IS NOT CANON.
No problem, as I said, there is apparently no such thing as "over the top" when it comes to internet fanboy rants.
I'm leaving forever in protest now, Farwell!

It's amazing Trek survived after that shit The Cage.
If you didn't like that, you definitely won't like the Starbuck-miracle-recovery thing.
