I may fall in love with Star Trek all over again...

[Captain Jack Wolfe]

**sigh**  OK, time to get my geek on...

There is a time travel plot to the story, which makes me roll my eyes.  Trek has become way too dependent upon that shtick for my taste.  Unless they want to trade in the Enterprise for a slightly used TARDIS, of course. 

That being said, I doubt we'll see Finnegan, Gary Mitchell, Janice Lester, John Gill, Captain Garrovick, the U.S.S. Farragut, or any other pivotal character from the 'established history'.  But it still looks like a fun ride.

[Capt. Bacardi]

How did I miss that Vet top.....I am usually pretty good at seeing those things.

From what I have heard he is not trying to trash the original, he make it so maybe more then us loyal Trekkie's go. Remember it is all about how much they can put into their pockets.

I was just wondering if they will mention or show Kirk's brother sense they are showing his early years?? Maybe even Finnegan from the academy days. I think that was his name. I might just be digging a little deeper then they where thinking thou.. 

Baby............ You better tuck that in.....  *sigh*

Why am I the only one that has to tuck it in.....that is not fair...   

[Aiacha]

I do see a listing for George Samuel Kirk, Jr., so we may see his brother.  That may be the only established historical character we will see.  (though I will geek out a little if Finnegan is mentioned)

[Muffin]

Because you are the only one that lives with me!! LOL!!!  

Go ahead Baby.. Get your geek on....   I'll just make fun of you later... hee hee!!

[Marietta Graziella]

I say join in and get your geek off!  I'm sure he'll thank you for it later.

Only if you dress up like an Orion slave girl!  Complete with the animal noises, and the slinky...  ooh, BUTTERFLY!!

Um, was that out loud? 

[Rani Zemirah]

I'll definitely be giving in to my inner geek with this one! She can probably even dig out a red shirt from the depths of the way-back machine!

She's a bit too modest for the Orion slave girl garb, though... LOL

(edit for typo, and lack of courage...  )

[Bodharan]

Well, how about one of those uniforms with the short skirts?  (Hooray, the miniskirts are back.  I know I am going to like this movie.)

If you have ever noticed (and you being a guy, I'm sure you have...) there is a certain type of leg that goes along with those micro-mini's that I just was not genetically gifted with... so, no, not even the short skirt, though I could possibly be talked into one of those one shoulder things that Yeoman Janice Rand wore on occasion...

[Rani Zemirah]

So... my first real crush was J.T. Kirk... I was about 6 1/2, and still reeling from watching the moon shot about a year or so before, and discovered Trek (and James) one day after church at my great grandmothers house. I remember it so well... I was flipping through the channels on her little, fuzzy 14 in. TV, when suddenly the bridge of the USSE came into focus! Then a door slid into the wall, and through it walked this commanding man dressed in the most skin tight clothes I'd ever seen a man wearing in my short, sheltered little life!!! Immediately I knew he was in charge, and so began my enduring passion for men in uniform who wield the authority to command an entire Starship!!!

But, that was not the only epiphany I had that day...

Shortly after I developed that instantaneous fixation, onto the bridge through a different door (the corridor door, not the ready room door) walked an exotically beautiful black woman, in that now famous micro-mini skirt, who proceeded to sit at a command officer position and address the captain with such calm competence that every eye on the bridge was glued to her during her report! At that moment I knew that I, as a female, could do or be anything I could dream...

Heady stuff for a 6 year old to take in, but it changed my entire life... I know that I would be a completely different person if it weren't for those very formative events so early in my life!

What a great moment to remember! Nichelle Nichols is awesome.

[Dayna]

I'm going!

I had the same experience, a Woman, on the Bridge, and men were Listening to her, and she was Not Caucasian!!!

I'm so white I glow in the dark, yet I was always brought up that it didn't matter what colour or gender you were, we were all the same.  My dad said that it was a shame the only way it could be managed was to have it in Science Fiction (these were the days of Diane Carroll in Julia and she was a nurse, not a doctor) but that someday, people were going to be seen for their insides, not their outsides.  BTW, the original pilot had a female first officer, but Paramount wouldn't go along with that, so Majel was demoted to nurse.

I kinda prefer dork to geek. Dorks are actually the new "cool" right now, and they don't ever have anyone ask them to bite the head off a chicken!  (well, ok... maybe once in a while... at a party... )
