I just cancelled my pre-order of the Blu-ray set. I'm not a Lucas hater, I'm not a purist, I'm always up for innovations and alternate versions of my favorite film series (yes, the whole damned mess) but I was sitting here for the first time ever thinking "I don't care about this release." I've seen enough of the

The genome is not the issue, Dude!

Did Zoe Saldana see the last STAR TREK movie? Pine-Kirk was shirtless and sans pants in Uhura's dorm room. Zoe, you were in the scene!

Ain't It Cool News got this misinformation rolling yesterday— I've come to expect lazy, inaccurate reporting from that site, but io9 is supposed to do better!

That's Henry Cavill from last week's SDCC; those are most certainly not set photos.

As long as Fishburne doesn't turn all silver and go surfing, I think he'll do a fine job.

James Franco- brilliant scientist? The guy can't even say Alzheimer's correctly. I'm deeply unexcited by this aping of "Apes."

With the recent episodes of "Doctor Who" being so dark and apocalyptic, I don't know if there is such a significant clash of styles between that show and Torchwood. "Doctor Who" is not offering characters like the flatulent Slitheen on a regular basis. Or the cheerful Adipose... oh, how I miss those little fatties.

Spielberg should merge his Lincoln movie with Transformers 4. "Autobots, emancipate and roll out!"

Yes, I would be less harsh on Robin Curtis. For one, Saavik's character really didn't have an arc in TSFS- she was just there to babysit the "emerging Spock" and her involvement in TVH is eclipsed by a good two dozen other actors who had more lines and screentime. For shame.

Looks like the location shoot on "Silicon Avatar" which was on BBC America tonight! Ah, this show holds up, I miss it so.

@Stephen Mark Monteith: I think Christian Bale proves that an English actor can lose an accent very effectively for the purposes of a superhero film. I doubt Cavill will keep his native accent. Warner's is in the "picture business" and they will do everything to make this film conform to American tastes.

For anyone critical of a non-American playing Superman, I would like to remind you that Kal-El is not even a human being. He's an alien. And and illegal one at that- you "truth, justice and the American way"-loving traditionalists!

I'm looking forward to the movie poster where Thor has to marry Sandra Bullock so she can stay in the country. Hijinks ensue!

DOD has concerns with UFOs entering orbit? Now, I have concerns with the same!

If X-Men are first class, what does that make X-Force? Coach?

In a billion years, the dominant, sentient lobster people of our planet will discover the frozen corpse of Pauly Shore and clone him, thus reviving humanity's greatest example of pond scum.

A thousand birds just crashed on my front lawn. Coincidence?

Star Trek needs to return to television. I liked the new movie and I'm glad to see the series is back on solid footing, but at its core, Trek is a weekly television program.

@I_Like_TDs: Yep, Sebulba left it there, that silly prankster!
