Posts from chester7777 in thread „New Star Trek Film for 2008“

Thanks, DukePilgrim, for bringing back this thread back. I haven't seen the movie myself, but have heard nothing but good from those who have. It sounds like, because of its "go back in time" aspect, there were some fun tidbits to come up that would be especially fun for those who are so familiar with the original show (who ever knew Lt. Uhura's first name before this film?).

It's not a film I'm averse to seeing, just haven't gotten around to it yet (I'm not a huge Star Trek fan by any means).

I have to admit being totally out of the loop on this topic, as I am NOT a Star Trek fan, and I have not heard of Simon Pegg.

For those that are fans and have heard of Pegg, does this sound like a good match?

It's interesting to me that a comic would be chosen for the role previously played by Doohan, as he did offer a bit of comic relief (whether that was originally intended or not). Of course, in retrospect, when I have recently watched some of the original ST shows, some of them seem quite funny to me, though I don't believe that WAS the original intent.

Just the ramblings of a non-ST fan . . . .
