Here's a question: how come J.J. Abrams finds all these super gorgeous females for his productions, but then ends up killing them.
Take lost...do you know how much "scenery" was shot and killed off each week. Somehow whenever there was a plot with a new hot babe, and some weird gnarly guy, the babe would be shot and the gnarly guy became a recurring character. Never the other way around.
Abrams continued that tradition in Fringe. Just this week, the episode had a stunning red head who morphed across time and abducted people. She had huge...tracts of land. But at the end...yep, a bullet in the chest.
Now star trek...a full length movie. What do you bet it ends up with 4 guys left alone who go "warping" away after all the female leads are phasered into ashes.

Really, I was happy enough to know to Kirk was from somewhere in Iowa sometime in the future.
A bratty, McCain wannabe, does not endear me to the charachter or the Federation.
I miss the point about the greater good and the prime directive when a classic auto is destroyed in some self serving and pointless stunt.
Scotty needs to beat the crap out of him for starters just out of general principal.
And I totally expect JJ to re-edit the film to match my precommentary.
That still of him smashing the computer monitor reminds me of when I moved out of Hillman/Columbia City last winter. The damn landlord, Mr. Wields a big stick over a dozen+ properties extending up to the beacon and d
own to the shores of Seward, gypped me out of my security deposit! Granted, 100 measly Lincolns, and the guy was permanently attached to his tool belt, sampling "each and every one" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3W81v0ScT…) of those businesses - boxing school, BOSS dim sum, butcher (lost 10,000 probably more during the windstorm blackout many moons 2yrsago?) socialist hall, tv & stereo pawn on the curve up tween Col and Hillm, right after
the Busy Bee --- wow, approx 6 blocks past blocks of Hillman business dist. --take a right, 2 blocks in - on the left - a cool thrift store owned by some khristan old lady do-gooders thing? some ok vintage wear --- BUt across the street, on the right -- a sectin8 old persun sort a place --- Please stop by and say hi to the guy up in 3rd florr smelly but tidy hovel --- in his 70s, suggested i try getting a cellphone -- has about 500 dvds, is from Texas, toured with honky tonk bands in the 60s
and 70s, still fighting with his ex, both still fighting alky anononoumous, --- we jammed on the sidewalk a few times -- him on boogie woogie casio (i gave it to him) me on acoustic --- he gave me SO MuCtH in those last few months living off Rainier ave --- fitting/manouvering his wheelchaior into my '90 tercel...dinners out side of Sakeway...on and , so yeah i felt
like smashing the F U out of my monitor C K when i skedaddled one bright winter's day. i gave the car away, to mey "employer" at the time, a guy, handyman in Richmond Beach, virtually living out of his gerryrigged Vanagon, when he's not eating oatmeal in that small room he rented from the guy with a meth addicted son... Star Trek - Yay - does Carlos Santana do the new soundtrack? Dous P. Allen smash a Ctuhulli when Cinerama premiers at midnight.? ...........grrrrrrr.......ahhhhhhh.......the lonsome whistle blow of the railroad.....out my window.....the dawn....of the d e A. --- D
Ah, "Turnabout Intruder", probably the nadir of TOS (with "Spock's Brain" running a very close second), which kind of makes sense, seeing it was the final episode shown in first-run.
Shatner playing a woman trapped in Kirk's body - priceless.
