I was never a huge fan of Star Trek: TOS, but I did see enough episodes to understand the appeal of the films (except for the first one--I fell asleep during that one). But, the trailers for the new flick have me really excited to see it.
The rest of the cast is good too. Simon Pegg as Scotty is fantastic, as is Karl Urban as Bones.
Yay for Simon Pegg and Karl Urban!! I was really pleased to see Urban get cast in this role, since he was only getting cheesy action films and/or baddie roles in better movies since Two Towers. Here's hoping he'll start getting some more substantial roles soon.
I adore TOS and I don't see this movie as a "fix." In spirit, it's essentially AU TOS fanfic. It's clearly been made with vast amounts of love for the show and the universe it inhabits.
News flash:
Run Lola Run
is a pretty good movie.
Yes, I'm lame, and just saw it.
Have we ever done a Top 10 Time-Travel Movies List?
Run Lola Run isn't a Time-Travel Movie, it's a Video Game Movie, with a reset button.

A perfect description! Love that movie--my sister was volunteering at the Tacoma art-film house and saw it a few weeks before I visited and she insisted that I see it with her. Loads of fun to watch, and Franke Potente is really riveting in it.
I love FBDO because Chicago is the main character.
I heard somewhere Matthew Broderick said there should never be a sequel because Ferris should never grow up.

Granted, but it would be amusing to see Ferris in an office somewhere, adored by all as he coasts along doing as little as possible. Plus I'd like to see if Cameron turned out OK.
I think Cameron ended up working for the mayor of NY.
