BBC News => Star Trek Film Turns Back Time
Every time Paramount gets bankrupted for new Star Trek ideas, this “going back to the early days of Kirk and Spock” idea keeps popping up.
While I’m not opposed to the idea, and have no real problem with recasting Kirk, Spock and the rest of the crew (as long as we don’t see Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Will Smith, etc.), I can’t help thinking that the Christopher Pike era wouldn’t be a much better ground.
Of course, since they can’t make a good Star Trek anymore, anyway, why bother?
I want to see the OLD Enterprise. If they have to gussy it up for the kids, they might as well not bother.
