Well, sort of. If you're me. Anyways, check out this link!
It will take you to an article about A POSSIBLE NEW STAR TREK TELEVISION SHOW. I would not be nearly as excited as I am about this if it wasn't going to be based off of the newest movie, which, as I discussed with Mary Grace after class the other, I thoroughly enjoyed. A moment I did NOT thoroughly enjoy, however, is learning that Zachary Quinto (a.k.a., new Spock) was homosexual. Alas, he doesn't bat for my team. Though it took me a minute to get over the fact that the 2009 movie so easily deviated from the standard plot line due to the flagrant use of an alternative timeline, I eventually convinced myself that, because no one can redo the awesomeness of TOS, they had to do what they could to make the movie a) legit and b) profitable, I had to let it go. So, if this new show is based on the black hole-induced alternate timeline from the 2009 movie, a revamped Original Series could be seriously legit! I wonder if they'll keep the same actors. Probably not. Let's find a Spock that's less homosexual and more available, shall we?
Editor's note (again): I don't have anything against gay people. I just mean that gay people don't generally want to be in love with me, which is the problem in Zachary Quinto's situation.
I will definitely have to watch out for this.
ReplyDeleteSo you don't have anything against gay people, Haley, you just don't want them cast as straight people?
ReplyDeleteWhat career choices WOULD you grant them?
