Never really been a fan either, but you're right, this does seem pretty cool.

I am a long-time fan and I loved it. There were a few things I think could have been done differently (but I won't post spoilers) but I still give it 5 stars.

A must-see for fans and non-fans alike.

Totally agree with Bear. I'm a longtime fan of the original (watched all the reruns after school when i was a kid). Not so much of the subsequent entries. But the idea and final product of this movie is great. Can't wait to see how many more they make.

Alright, so I'll admit, I'm a hard core Star Wars nut!!!  I'm not the type to buy or collect the toys or trinkets mind you, but I have all the novels and read them all the time.  I even have an original VHS release of the Trilogy in mint condition which is one of my most treasured possessions.

So, like any TRUE Star Wars fan, I've never cared for Star Trek.  This caused many problems growing up because my dad was a Trekkie, and I still to this day think that he 'donated' all mine and my brothers' Star Wars toys to charity to spite us for not liking Star Trek.

That having been said however, I do think Picard was awesome (mainly due to the Slyness) and can appreciate and enjoy the movies for the Sci-Fi factor.  I'm not sure if I'll be seeing this in theaters, but I'll do in fact want to see it.

2 great Star Wars Vs. Star Trek videos.........    O0

I saw it this past week and I loved it. Probably the best movie that I've seen this year. Action, adventure and pretty heroic

Definitely go and see this one in the theater. Go catch a matinee or something if need be (that's how I do it). I've seen the thing twice now and the visuals are fabulous. Enough so that only a theater screen is going to do it justice.

Aside from being a really great movie, well acted, written and directed, but there are quite a few SLY mofos in the film as well. Apperently, shaved heads are gogin the be a pretty big thing in the distant future  ;)

I always enjoyed ST and rember it being prime time. My sister andI begged our parents to let us stay up and watch it.  I 'd like to see this new one but have thought about skipping it after seeing the  clip where they are trying to evacuate a pregnant woman off the ship as everything is going to hell. The clip brought back nasty memories of me dealing with 30 odd pregnant soldiers at the Fort Hood mobilization site who couldnt deploy, couldnt fight, were just a drain on the taxpayer, and had ZERO business in the Army.  Anyway, I have heard the film is politically correct.  So....as a loyal American who has had his share of Marxism, attacks on free speech, capitalism and the Constitution, and global trips of apology and appeasement to bad people and countries over the last 100 days, is this a film I would like?  If its a film that will anger me, I wont waste my money. lol   

I always liked the ST premise of the prime directive but they meddled when requied. (and of course, kicking the borgs ass..)

I always catch the Tuesday matinee, there's hardly ever anyone else there. Which is good, because I hate people eating popcorn in my ear.
