Star Trek: General Discussion Part 2

[Doctor Jones]

Not a fan of commentaries, but might make an exception for that scene.

But seriously, it's very funny and entertaining. Everyone is pretty funny.

Wont be listening to the whole thing, just not a fan of them and dont get the time, would rather just watch the movie if I get the time.

All about the first vid

^Way too easy. I think that literally lasted two seconds.

This one's pretty good, mostly because of the ending: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx0aP20wSpY

Took something nice home from my job a week ago t: Then I put all my DVD's in it just like I did with a similar stand I took home a couple months back. But I had dibs on this one as soon as I found out we'd have a DVD stand of the movie

It used to be this:

You son of a *****!

 

[bunk]

You're a lucky bastard!

 

[JaD]

Heh, I planned ahead, alright? I called dibs on it almost 3 months ago when my asst. manager was talking to me about movies coming out and what stands we'll have in the store. He was trying to hustle me and get the stand himself pfft. I walked out of a grocery store on Thanksgiving Day with a huge Star Trek cardboard cutout

 

[Webhead2006]

thats cool

 

[Spider-Bat]

I still cannot get enough of this movie. I was watching it again today and was just as exciting watching it as when I first saw it in the theater!

I love everything they did with it. It's just one of those rare movies that are just perfect.

This finally made me a Trek fan.

Right now I just have it from Netfliux, and honestly if all I get for Christmas this year is this DVD I'll be more than happy.

 

[wiegeabo]

I've been wondering how many times I can watch the same parts of the movie over and over before I get tired of it.

So far, infinity looks to be the right answer.

Shatner Frustrated Over 'Star Trek' Feuds


William Shatner has given up trying to make peace with his former "Star Trek" co-stars - insisting, "nothing seems to work," in an interview with the New York Post.
The 78-year-old, who shot to fame as Captain Kirk on the original 1960s show, admits his memories of the series have been marred by bitter feuds with former cast mates.


Shatner admitted he felt bad after former co-star George Takei failed to invite him to his wedding to longtime partner Brad Altman last year. Meanwhile, Shatner reached a gentleman's agreement with Leonard Nimoy never to talk Trek in order to salvage their friendship.
But the star insists most of his efforts to mend relationships have been in vain.


He tells the New York Post, "I've asked them (my co-stars) numerous times to see if I can assuage their bitterness. I don't know what their problem is, quite frankly, so I've given up on trying to make it better. I don't like any ill feeling, and if there was something I could do to correct it I would. But nothing seems to work."

Wait, I knew about his beef with Takei but I thought he and Nimoy were always cool with each other?

[Aesop Rocks]

Damn! He's 78?!

not really....since Shatner was such a DBag back in the day, everyone kind of keeps him at arms length....karma is a sum*****

 

[Pink Ranger]

There's an old expression. Every group of people has one major a-hole in it. If you look around the room and can't identify that person, then it's you.

If Shatner has to find himself "salvaging" all these relationships, maybe he needs to sit down and think whether he's the problem.

 

[Sam Fisher]

Well, a guy with that big a ego...

 

[That-Guy]

Denny Crane does not appreciate that comment

Very true. Denny Crane is a great character. But man, did I love that Palin reading. That made me fall out of my seat laughing.

 

[Young Superman]

I love the scene where Kirk takes command of the Enterpise.

Yeah, there's a reason why he was the only one who wasn't invited to Takei's wedding.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Were everyone else seems to love this the more they watch it, I am pretty much the opposite, i find it getting worse the more I watch it, dont know what it is, but I think its with the realisation that with a $150 million budget, they could have done more.

Serenity only cost $40 million and had action scene's just as big and bold as ST, and was a better movie IMO.

I still like it, just feel it doesnt really reward repeat viewings for me.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea i remember reading he never really got along with most of the original cast. But hey its his own faults there. But it is nice to see he is trying to mend things now.

Also interesting article about that writer wanting to do sequel. Though its likely not going to happen for him.
