They should stop making Star Trek for a while.

I hope that the changes they make will be for good reason, not just for dramatic effect, or for the sake of being re-imagined.

At least we know one thing. When it comes out, most of us will be very busy here speaking our minds.

Maybe I'll bring my laptop to the movie and complain/swoon to the forum in real time.

Hey, has anyone else watched Star Trek V with the Rifftrax commentary?

I was wondering if anyone else enjoyed hearing a couple comedians rip on the movie while they watched it.

Infamy is fame for a negative reason. As in the quote you mention, which was part of an FDR address regarding the Japanese attack on Peral Harbor, calling Dec. 7, 1941 "a day that will live in infamy."

You honestly aren't sure if I meant Pearl Harbor, and just made a typo? You have heard about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, right?

FDR

Even if you couldn't work out what the name was meant to be, don't you think the above bits of info sort of spell it out for you?
