I have always been a 'casual' fan of Trek. I seen at least half of the films in theaters (III, VI, Generations, First Contact, Insurrection, and Nemesis). I always preferred the films as they had a way bigger budget. and I liked the use of miniatures (which is funny as the 'enterprise' in the 80s films was 16 feet long!) over the CGI (FYI First Contact was the the last 'trek' film to use a miniature for the 'enterprise'). I never got into the TOS (60s show) i was more a TNG and VOY fan (did not care for DS9, and when i moved to NY we did not get UPN so i never could get into Enterprise). I did like the TNG movies, mainly the beloved First Contact, but i still liked the others (even Nemesis was fun for me like when Riker rammed the Enterprise into the bad guys ship!). I am really looking forward to this film, ever since I saw the wicked teaser with the JFK and early NASA astronaut voice overs ending with Nimoy as 'Spock'.
so, i know where MY butt will be when this sucker comes to theaters!
