Star Trek Mania


There's a new movie in town sort of "Star Trek", The new film, directed by J.J. Abrams, takes "Trek" back to the early days of the USS Enterprise with a young Capt. James T. Kirk and his crew.The movie introduces a slew of movie newcomers in what are now iconic roles: Chris Pine takes on the role of the passionate Kirk; Zachary Quinto is the logical Spock; Zoe Saldana plays the beautiful Lt. Uhura; Karl Urban is Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy; Simon Pegg plays engineer Montgomery "Scotty" Scott; John Cho is Sulu; and Anton Yelchin appears as Pavel Chekov.

It base that watched the show's 79 episodes religiously, the original "Star Trek" television series. The new film has already stirred some controversy among die-hard Trekkies for messing around (a little) with that "sacred material." In the new film, the Enterprise is built in Iowa instead of San Francisco, and some of the relationships are a bit different than fans may remember -- particularly a romantic relationship. But history comes in handy, particularly if you're an actor trying to get a handle on "Star Trek's" characters. This will be the movie that fans would love, even me I haven't watch it just the previous but this will be the movie that im dying to watch in theaters.
