We all know if Jar Jar Binks showed up in Star Trek, he'd flop away screaming as Captain Kirk tried to have sex with him

Less on screen time for Jar Jar means better movie

I'm a little late with this news... but it is interesting and thought I would post it nonetheless.

The re-imagining of Star Trek by J.J. Abrams is already breaking records. In the first 24 hours online on apple.com, the new Star Trek trailer was downloaded 1.8 million times and 5 million times over the first 5 days, breaking both the single day and weekly records.

Lots of Trek articles in the news lately with the movie's launch around the corner....The latest thing in Trekkiedom - build your own Kirk vintage command chair:

Wow, He probably had plenty of time to build that chair because, you know, dateless.

He should have his nerd card revoked. Spending thousands of dollars on that chair won't make up for it.

The only way that I would buy that chair is if I could use it as a toilet.
