Sir Jean Luc Picard, Indeed.

I always liked Picard style better than the cowboy diplomacy of Shatner's Kirk.

I hate to start a fight like this, but Chris Pine did a better job of being "Kirk" than Shatner, but maybe that was beginner's luck.

Oddly, I totally agree with ya....

I thoroughly enjoyed last year's movie, but I still can't understand how a Mustang could be driven so hard, being hundreds of years old, and also having access to tires. I suppose there would have to be ground-bound vehicles then, but perhaps they would be like hovercraft, not needing rubber. As to Pine over Shatner, amen. He did a great job, and I am hoping for another prequel. This could go on for a long time.

Mustang could be driven so hard

uh.....

That was a 65 Corvette Stingray Roadster.

Proof.

[Greg Goodfellow]

My bad. Thanks for the correction!

That is a hell of a mistake for a man.
But a common mistake for a Klingon.

[cgarison]

Vulcans have similar issues because they do not have the emotional response to steel, fiberglass and big, cast iron block V8s like humans do.

[Bob Campbell]

Picard couldn't carry Kirk's phaser holster.

And so....let it begin.

From a description of me at birth, I sorta resembled a baby Klingon. Unfortunately, it's been all downhill from there
