Sunai and all you other young bucks, Personally, I enjoyed both Star Trek and Star Wars. Please remember that Star Trek was originally developed in the 60's when the modern technology of today's cinema wasn't even envisioned. The true treckies followed the series so closely that Gene Rodenberry received tons of letters every time the writers made a mistake-- like having the Enterprise reach a planet at a Stardate that was impossible by normal warp travel. They had little to work with and still kept their appeal for several decades. As evidence, there are still numerous conventions every year-- not bad for a 40 y/o series. The movies, then, had to keep some consistency with the original or be laughed at by all the fans. If you're really crazy, take a look at the original series and think about the sociological issues it confronted.
If you want to see some even stranger writing (and technologically older cinementography), look up the old Dr. Who series that the BBC put out. If you are familiar with that series, you're either too old to admit it or a true sci-fi fan. Daniel -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sunil P.
