I was totally not gonna go see it when I saw the trailer, cos of a)It's ST I haven't seen a single ST movie, b)it looked way too scary (I scare easily ) and c)I don't think it's worth paying for. I haven't watched Trek for ages, so don't know who's with who (Are Riker and Troi the only couple, and aren't they both really old and different looking now?), plus not too keen on the ST:TNG characters. Though this thread makes the film look kinda good...
Shame about Data dying... What's happened to the series? Has that finshed forever?
And how are there cars in it? Isn't it set in space?
SPOILER WARNING!
Riker and Troi are the only couple. The series ended years ago, when the started doing movies. Riker and Troi look pretty much like they did in the series, but Patrick Stewart, still a doll mind you is starting to look his age. The cars in space thing - they go down to a desert planet (that looks remarkably like the California desert) and they are tracking down what turns out to be a dis-membered robot that's an earlier version of Data. The pieces are spread out over a few acres, so they bring down with them what is essentially a souped up dune buggy, pick up the pieces of the robot, then get chased by brigands.
The earlier ones are all on video, so go rent them. Just avoid the odd-numbered ones (although #3 is ok).
I'm not 100% sure - although if I'm wrong I'm quite sure someone here will correct me at warp speed -- but #1-6 are original cast, #7 is a hybrid of both, #8-10 are new cast.
The robot they found is an earlier, simpler version of Data - so if they do make another movie, they could bring Bret Spiner back as that character, whose name is B-4 (kinda obvioius name, eh?).
