Star Trek: Elders

.

The news is that Shatner and Nimoy have been tapped to do ANOTHER Star Trek movie, 2008 release. After #10 with the "other guys" was such a flop.

Who thinks that making a movie of octogenarians zipping across the bridge of the Enterprise in their wheel chairs and walkers will be riveting for the audience? Probably the same guy who put Julia Roberts on the Broadway stage to get bad reviews.

Will Spock's hearing aid interfere with his Tricorder readings? Will Kirk's irritating pauses... between... words become longer?

    You're joking, right?

    Actually, you're not. According to startrek.com, they really are considering making Star Trek XI. From the sounds of it, though, it won't be William Shatner or Leonard Nimoy.

    It will be like a pre-quel. Hey, it worked for Star Wars.

    Yes, Saj. 'Fraid so. The only other question is, who will be awake at the end of the movie?
