Star Trek XI

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Good casting. I'm starting to get very interested.

This morning, SF Signal linked to an interview with Kevin Smith where he obliquely discusses a movie that he can't really talk about:

Host: So thumbs up on The Watchmen, what else you got?

Smith: I saw a movie last night that I cannot talk about.

Host: Was it good?

Smith: It was phenomenal.

Host: Any stars, any break out stars, and do they trek?

Smith: The stars absolutely trek in this film. It is fantastic. Anybody who was worried doesn’t need to be worried–about this film I cannot talk about…It was in very capable hands. The director did a phenomenal job–the director and his crew. Top notch cast and the guy that plays the lead is an instant star. That dude is going to be so famous. He is so wonderful. He picked up a role that I would say is pretty challenging for someone to step into the shoes of, because it is a role that has been played before many times by the same guy.

Host: How do you out Shatner, Shatner?

Smith: I don’t know what you are talking about.

Host: I was just saying that as an expression.

I remember Kevin Smith also got an advance viewing of SW:Episode II, and gushed about THAT as well.

However, Luas is not involved with Trek, so there may be hope. A new hope.

Kevin Smith was sitting in for mouth cancer dude on the movie review show once.

He loved every movie.

Yeah, I'm a big Smith fan, but you can't go by his opinions on films. I've only ever heard him say one film was shit.

The guy just likes movies and finds something good in all of them.

Here's the new enterprise.

Not sure how I feel about the redesign.

Here's some text descriptions of 4 clips of the movie that were shown, somewhere.

Sounds interesting. I'm still looking forward to the new flick.

I like it. It's got retro elements without being ugly. Sort of like something half-way between original TV and late movie Enterprise.

I don't like the "neck" that attaches the primary and secondary hulls, but otherwise I like it.

Looks like Kirk scores.

Bonus points if it's an alien chick.

I liked Bones' doom and gloom line:
