Star Trek fans have been waiting anxiously to see exactly how the relationship between Spock and Uhura develops in the sequel.

But, if super-villain John Harrison has anything to do with it, the relationship is doomed to end in tragedy.

Gay Blade!!!!

Stan Lee is and always has been a lefty. I dunno, if the whole red menace thing was satire or not.

Oh, My!

“Avatar” was:

Anti-Christian (by its advocacy of reincarnation)
Anti-Capitalism (By depicting the profit motive as evil)
Anti-Military(By depicting the Military as oppressors)
Anti-American (By showing the oppressors as obvious English-Speaking American types)
Anti-Homo-Sapiens(By depicting the “other” race as superior in thought, word and deed to Humans)
Anti-Caucasian (By depicting the oppressed ‘other” as an outlandish, non-human color.)

Other than that, I wouldn’t say that it had an agenda! hahaha

Bottom line...sell books. Build an audience, then head left...

That was the symbolism of young Kirk driving the ‘67 Vett over the cliff...’67 being the year the original ST came out. They were saying right from the beginning, this is going to be a different ST.

I would have loved to see Avatar.

I did not see...I wont.

I just don’t care to watch a film that blatantly portrays our nation and our military as criminals and conservatives as evil.

So the whole things a rerun........not surprised.

Yes. Well Done.

A quick visit to Jamestown (and it’s latest archaeological discoveries!) will disavow one of any notions garnered from Disney’s “Pocahontas”.

In fact, as the Park rangers tell the story while displaying the artifacts, they keep saying, “It WASN’T like the movie!”.

I missed that too (although I did recognize the year of the 'Vette).

I do like this new series so far. Of course, I liked Enterprise a lot too, and that seems to put me in the minority.

I could take or leave TNG, Voyager and DS9. Ditto with the ST movies.

Breeding your race out of existence? Hmmmm. I think Spock would call that illogical.

Vulcans are not controlled by their hormonal urges until their time of pon-phar anyway.

Always liked “TOS.” I even bought the three season dvd-sets. So I was awfully tempted to go see the first film re-boot when it came out. But when I learned the new Spock actor was a fruit, it just soured me on the idea. So I didn’t bother.

It’s hard enough now to go back and watch a once-favorite episode of the old series like “The Naked Time,” with Sulu prancing about the Enterprise corridors, without getting a bit nauseated!

Rules...

...the photos of that kiss make me think more of a couple of young women I knew years ago who fell in love with homosexual men...sort of sad and icky at the same time.

M'lle I saw it as an emotionless Vulcan enduring a kiss by a passionately human woman. Maybe that Sylar guy playing for the wrong team helped with the characterization.

I'll even venture to say, perhaps it takes someone as gay as a three dollar bill to kiss Zoe Saldana onscreen without shooting off like a rocket into the final frontier!
