From Cool News
http://www.aintitcool.com/node/39031
Sounds exciting.
I remember paying no attention to these before until
I read one concerning the opening scene of "Insurrection"
...and it was right on

Did you read it?
I assume they saw exactly what they said they saw
Or, is this one of those BBK things and you will refuse to like
this movie no matter how it turns out? |

| No I just don't like the look of the ship. Also, I don't want to read plot spoilers. |

| Yeah! I can SEE the ST-TMP and TNG influence!.....and THAT THING is suppose to bring 1st generation trekkers back into the fold??????? Does paramount honestly believe that THAT monstrosity or is it abomination....is going to recapture the hearts of old line trek fandom? Next year when this latest debacle opens long misguided paramount is going to wish that they had kept that THING in drydock. If Bil is really down in the dumps about being locked out of star trek then my guess it would cheer him up almost immediately to see a picture of that thing. He might even break out laughing although I`m not laughing. I`m just truly dumbfounded at the mentality of the fools running paramount who shortly will be burying star trek forever. |

Here we go again... The ever-so "optimistic" mental meanderings of Morgram. As usual, you will be wrong. Star Trek seems set to be the movie event of next year. Abrams is a savvy player, and even if the film turns out to be crap, like... say... Transformers, it is certain to do well. Having said that, I have heard nothing but positive comments from everyone who has had a glimpse at the film.
With new Trek and a new, wonderful, glorious President... Man, life is good!  |

Here's a bet. If the movie is a flop, I will never post here again. If the movie is a major hit, you will promise to do the same. |

A bet is a bet! I stand by my promise and I expect you to do the same.
Having said that, you may as well stop posting now.  |

Also, can we pre-define "flop" and "hit"?
-Paul |
Millions (or billions) of dollars perhaps?
Morgram is so sure the film will be a 'flop'.
Harry_Mudd is damn sure the film will be a 'hit'.
Are both of them sure they're willing to leave the forum because of this bet? |
