You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Winona Ryder cast as Spock's mom.

That is just wrong.

Is WR old enough to play ZQ's mom?

No, he is only 6 years younger than she is.

Maybe she'll just be in flashbacks.

Oh, dear.

(Today's bit of random Trek trivia -- Kirk's mother was named Winona.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Winona Ryder cast as Spock's mom.

Maybe Keanu Reeves can play Spock's dad.

"Whoa. That is not logical."

Speaking of whoa, Ryder apparently isn't playing Spock's mother, Amanda.

She’ll play the young Vulcan mother of Zachary Quinto’s Spock in the movie

Now, not to get too Trek-geeky, but Trek canon (and please correct us if we’re wrong) states very plainly that Spock’s mother is Amanda Grayson, a human being from our very own planet Earth. So, we’re very intrigued to see how Abrams and his writers, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, are going to explain away the presence of a Vulcan mother – step-mum, perhaps? Foster parent? Does Spock not know at this point who his real mother is? Or are they pulling something a bit more grandiose and revisionist?

Maybe she's Spock's wet nurse....

Egg McMuffin: Actually, I think Winona would look pretty hot as a Vulcan....

Yeah, but I'm having visions of Call from ALIEN RESURRECTION (aka River Tam/Kaylee, the beta version) and it's not a good thing

Yeah, but she was an android in that one. This time she'll be a Vulcan!

Which will be different because... Vulcans are all logical, so she'll have to downplay all that annoying emotive stuff....
