as for the new movie, just got back from finally getting a chance to see it and was very impressed. did a great job of reviving the classic franchise and paving a path for them to show entirely new plotlines. i also like the alternate reality explanation vs. destroying the original timeline completely, i hope they have old Spock expand on that a bit in the sequel to appease the hardcore trekkies like Devil'sAdvocate. really looking forward to seeing what direction they want to go in now
