[QUOTE]Originally posted by bX: [QB] (I realize we're wandering off here: This [i]IS[/i] a starship thread, after all.) Here's the thing: Canon stifles a writer's creativity. If you have an an exciting out-of-the-box idea with a certain story, but then are forced to check that it doesn't contradict some little detail in however many years of other materials, well guess what? You are now back inside the box. In rebooting the producers have succeeded in making a very exciting, accessible and popular film which (whether we die-hard fans like it or not) has re-invigorated this franchise. I think the real genius here is that they did so without negating or betraying any of the Trek we've come to love, lo these many decades. So we will get to see more Trek because Paramount can make money from movies and stuff. The Trek we get will different enough that there's new stories, but similar enough that things are familiar. And so I'm excited to see what they come up with. If Nemesis was where it was headed, I for one am VERY glad to see it take a different direction. Except, fuck that the Enterprise is 700 meters long. Fuck that shit right out the airlock. [/QB][/QUOTE]
