Yeah a weak away is cool but it so hard and lazy to work again  :D  Btw I translated the review about  Star Trek from English to Russia when I took my english exam at the university. Though never seen it, I think it is a very cool thing^^

That's neat, I couldn't really translate anything.  I'm supposed to be able to translate French, but I'm really not good at all.  I stopped practicing a loooong time ago, but I was good when I still practiced.

Anyway, I wonder how Nej will react to this Star Trek talk ^^.

Star Trek  is his favorite?^^

I translated a lot of texts, reviews, articles and notes when studied English. A lion share of my English knowledge comes through translation. Btw I just like it^^ It is interesting for me to know what is written on foreign language ^_^  ;012

I want to study second language but haven't decided which one ;018

Well, the old stereotype is Lucas fans and Roddenberry fans don't get along.  So with Nej clearly establishing on several occasions his status as a Star Wars guy, I thought I would take the chance to playfully rib him.  In all honesty, I'm not that big of a Star Trek fan, the only one I really like is TNG, which forever spurred my fandom of Patrick Stewart.  I think the real trekkie here is Smokey.  It would also be interesting to hear his perspective on the movie... hopefully he's not one of those weirdos sitting in a "Captain's chair" eating Cheetos and whining about what blasphemy this new movie is ^^.

EDIT:  I really need to proofread more... I know this is the interwebs and all, but there's no excuse for most of my errors -__-;.

It is shame I can say nothing about both of this series cuz never watch them and only heard smb's opinion. But what I have read about them both is really exciting^^ (so I just set after this talk the download  of Star Trek and Star Wars on mininova.org) Btw interesting to see acting of Christopher Lee in Star Wars. His acting as Saruman in the Lord of the Rings was brilliant^^ Such a strong character was created by his action^^

Edit: About errors. I just usually copy my posts into Word to check mistakes in word's writing XD And what about grammar mistakes...well I always afraid that I will type something in a wrong way (always in doubts about correct verb, tens, gerund and passive forms and etc) so I often reread my post before send it :rolleyes:

Well before any of that, Lee played many of the great monsters of Western Literature, and most well known as Dracula!  The man is a living legend, especially among sci-fi/horror fans.  He's done a lot in his career, but he's best known for his portrayal of great villains ^^.  He's one of the many reasons I would much prefer to play the role of a villain.

EDIT:  In regards to errors, Firefox does most of the work for me.  It doesn't auto-correct (not that I would want it to anyway), but it does spell-check automatically so I can make corrections myself.  The only problem is that it doesn't check for grammar or syntax, so I'm kinda screwed when it comes to run-ons and homophones and such.

Well, that was kind of the idea I was conveying with my earlier statement.  It seems that anytime a franchise movie has mainstream appeal, it's bound to piss off the hardcore fanbase for some reason.  The only franchise movie I know of that experienced near universal praise (i.e. appealing to both hardcore and mainstream audiences) would be The Dark Knight, although I've read some fairly heavy-handed criticisms of it as well.

Yeah, it's not uncommon for guys with distinctive voices to become a popular choice for voice work.  Few actors can match Lee's bass (names like Vincent Price, Tony Jay, and Corey Burton come to mind).

A little question: is Star Trek something like Back to the Future series? I have an imagination of it

No, Back to the Future is about time travel, whereas Star Trek is about space travel (in reality, these would be the same concepts, but in science fiction there's kind of a line drawn).  The theme in Back to the Future is a bit lighter too - while Star Trek is generally serious and dramatic, Back to the Future tends to be light-hearted and comedic.  We're also talking about the difference between a personal venture (Back to the Future), and the voyage of an entire crew (Star Trek).  I'm not exactly sure if this was the comparison you were looking for, but this was the best one I could do since I haven't seen the new Star Trek movie yet.

the only common thing they have is sci-fi and time travel.

Yep, and time travel isn't as central to the plot of Star Trek as Back to the Future I would say.

Also, infinity_zero sighted!  Business may be about to pick up! ^^

Hyoo~
Well, I'm not much of a Trekker at all, but that's just because the series are too bothersome to DL in comparison with the 6 starwars movies...plus jedis are fun in games. -w-

Nah, I'm not much of a star wars mumbojumbo either, really.


Wtf am I, then? The hell knows. Haruhiist for animu, WoT-ist and EWAR-ist for literature, but movies/series...who the hell knows? I don't watch much.
OH
But Johnny Depp is almost always good. So I'll stick with that.
Somehow most stuff involving Orlando Bloom seems to draw me like magnetism too, maybe that's because I stole his Legolas look. I dunno. -w-

Added after 3 minutes:

OH
And is anyone wonders why I'm here now, it's because I just woke up. I partied as FUUUCK last night, owned the dancefloor for hours and shit, and with my impending cold of doom sneaking up on me, that's turned into shit like a heavy-as-lead stone weighing me down in bed and making me miss school. So I'm sick. Yeah. Fuckit.
