I've always been more of a Next Generation Trekkie, so messing with the time line doesn't bother me to much. I do however wish that they had waited and cloned Shatner for the role. I think he has proven with some of his recent work the he had the potential to be a great actor, and I think his clone deserved a shot at this part.

Wow. I did not know any of that. Been trying to not read up on it, and it seems I've missed out on some things. Should be interesting to see, if nothing else.

My local theater has 7pm Thurs showing. I gotta wiggle out of a car club event to get there.

I tried watching TMP again . . . . any OMG how insippedly boring! After 30 minutes, they were FINALLY leaving the space port - after I swear what seemed like a 10 minute tour of the outside of the Enterprise - and they try to go to warp speed and that gets mucked up. I was . . . . seriously . . . I couldn't stand any more. As much as I wanted to give it some slack, I just couldn't. Maybe I'll try again later. But . . . ugh.
Mal: You think she'll hold together?
Zoë: She's torn up plenty, but she'll fly true.
Mal: Could be bumpy.
Zoë: Always is

Quote:Is that the Director's Edition with the new cuts? It moves faster than the theatrical or TV versions. But one thing I still hate is the transporter malfunction scene- it's just there for shock value & really slows down the flick IMO.

It moves FASTER? How can that be? 
Maybe I'll just jump right to WoK.

Quote:Robert Wise added new FX & tightened it up- it comes in at a shorter running time.

Actually, while I agree it does play faster, due to new edits which help the pacing, the Director's Edition actually runs 4 minutes longer than the theatrical cut.

In TMP, is Commander Willard Decker (Stephen Collins) related to Commodore Matt Decker ( William Windom) from The Doomsday Machine? I haven't seen TMP in a long while so I forget if any relationship is mentioned.
For the record, I've always liked this movie a lot. A different feel to it for sure, and some slow parts, but overall very enjoyable.
