SPOILERS: So Spock goes back in time, right . . .

[hanchan]

Get your thinking tackle around this one.

The new Star Trek is not a sequel, prequel or anything so crass. They're just about allowing it to be called a reboot. Yep, despite featuring the crew of the original Enterprise in their salad days, it does fit exactly into what fans would call current canon.

Some time after Nemesis, old Spock gets wind of some time-travelling Terminator style tomfoolery in which the Romulans plot to go back in time and deal Young Kirk a lethal spike in order to craft a Kirkfree universe for them to rule. Good try, but Spock's a canny bugger who simply follows them back - straight into the youthful Enterprise - to put a stop to their upstart behaviour.

Depending on whether we're following Back To The Future rules or not, the resolution of the film could essentially void everything from the last 40-odd years of Star Trek history, setting up Spock as some kind of mentor figure and creating a whole new, alternative timeline. A little bit wanky, but possibly the breath of fresh air the series needs.

I've never been that into Star Trek.  But I am really looking forward to seeing this.  And with this news, here's hoping for a future spinoff: Klingons vs Terminators.  That's just gold.

Whoa.

I really have to admit that's an interesting idea ... but wait, seriously? Spock's still alive post Nemesis? That's like twenty years after the start of TNG ... ok, ok, ok, I'm really not a Trekkie, but come on. How long to those buggers live when they're half human?

I have no idea if this will suck or rock. But I have a suspiction it will suck, even though I love Abram's Mission Impossible and the parts of LOST he actually paid attention to ...

This is all well and good, but why is no one talking about my new movie coming out this week - Bangkok Dangerous?

I worked hard on this one, sometimes filming past 8 o'clock at night.

Oh my God!  It's Nicolas Cage!

*BLAM* *BLAM* *BLAM*


dear god, he's still coming!  Why won't he die?


oh and to answer your question....



is why.  Also....

[Nicolas Cage]

I'm very upset with that trailer and phoned my agent as soon as I saw it. It's misleading because I don't really travel to Bangkok for a holiday, and I'm not in banking, those are two lies I tell in the movie. I actually play an assassin and there's a great deal of excitement.

^ Reading that while hearing Cage's voice in my head seriously just made my day.
