I love the movie. My favorite parts are the parts involving fans at the cons and the "geeks" that guide Tim Allen and Sirgourney Weaver through the bowels of the ship near the end.
As an aside,Over the years I have met fans that are that fanatical and have actually asked the actors technical questions about the ships like they are real. Makes me wonder some days.
The majority of fans are normal people except for the few that give us all a bad name especially when the news crews show up to find "geeks" to put on the evening news.

Which Star Trek Character Are You?
You scored as a Montgomery Scott--"Scotty"
You are Chief Engineer Scott. You know--"Beam me up, Scotty!" You can drink like a fish and work like a dog. You are passionate about your work and your (apparently scottish) heritage. You feel best when you've just pulled off a miraculous feat of engineering, and will celebrate with a round for your close friends, who you most likely met on the job. Watch out for that heavy scottish food, though, or you may end up with a pot belly and a bad mustache.

Of the 3 listed my favorite is Forbidden Planet. One of my favorite classic movies is The Thing (From Another World) the 1951 version not the John Carpenter remake. (the Carpenter version does follow the original short story)
So far Hollyweird's plans to remake Forbidden Planet have fallen through.
BTW they are remaking the Carpenter version of The Thing, so Hollyweird will be giving us ANOTHER remake of a remake ala` War Of The Worlds.

Mr. Clark was and will always be one of the greatest science fiction authors, nay authors period of all time. His books were more than just science fiction but visionary about the future. I hope he is with Asimov and Heinlein right now righting the greatest science fiction novel ever dreamed of and we will get to read it in the hereafter. His contributions to all of our lives goes far beyond his writing fiction. His work in science led to things we still rely on today. He fought long and hard to overcome a debilitating disease, he should be an inspiration to us all. Rest in peace you earned it and shall be missed by all.

What bothers me is that the idea will spread to the U.S. and some idiot will sue the government for not padding lamp posts and 12 even bigger idiots will award idiot #1 the money.
We need some of these folks to win Darwin Awards instead.

There actually was a flying car built in the 50's but it never succeeded in getting CAB (now called the FAA) approval.
The Moller company has been promising a flying car for several years now and has spent several million dollars of investor's money and so far no car. We may never see one in our lifetime.

Black coffee, I hate to ruin perfectly good coffee by adding gunk to it.

The new trailer looks great but is has one disturbing part, HE CRUSHED THE COBRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!! <_< otherwise it looks like a great movie.

If Van Roy were that Santa he would have asked that she serve 2 years home detention, HIS home. Thankfully the courts would not allow that under the 8th amendment to the Constitution of The United States.

Barker was losing it the last few years and Drew is doing a great job. Drew is funny and he is the "everyman" of game shows.
Another thing is that it must be cheaper to have Drew host the show, no more sexual harassment lawsuits.

The authors of that study made a big mistake. ALL illegal aliens (immigrants if you wish) ARE criminals. Their very presence in the United States is a crime.

I watched the movie and as far as TV remakes go it is far better than the new Battlestar Galactca and Bionic Woman.
It has several weak points:
No William Daniels as the voice of K.I.T.T. (actually a big weakness)
The script was rather weak compared to the original series pilot but passible
Edward Mulhare was the perfect foil as Devon Miles to Hasselhoff's Michael (this guy I'm not so sure of)
Where's Bonnie???????(sexy women mechanics, a car guys dream)
Where's April??????? (see above)
The CGI morphing was stolen from Viper (I could do without the morphing)
If it becomes a series I will watch it, it's better than most of the dreck on TV these days.
BTW I have owned a couple of Mustangs in my lifetime and I am happy with the choice of car.

He can be charged with grand larceny because he took the money knowing that is was not his. The bank is liable to the original depositer for the money, however the 2nd Mr. Lovell stole the money as it was not his money and he was not entitled to it, the money was the property of the first Mr. Lovell.

I hate to break the Catholic church's bubble but most of the people (including most catholics) celebrating St. Patrick will be doing so by wearing green clothes, drinking Guinness, drinking green beer, eating corned beef and cabbage and singing Irish pub songs not in church.

I think Data should have died somewhere in the series or at least been transferred. The character started out being enjoyable but eventually became as annoying as another character that should have died and not just sent to Starfleet Academy....... Wesley Crusher.

It's not as innovative as you might think. That technology has been used for years in RV refrigerators that can be run on propane or electric. On propane there is a flame that heats the ammonia solution filled "coils" like those on the back of a refrigerator. They are just using a different source for the heat not a new process.

Let's reverse the situation, if the groom were Van Roy the doll would have been the actual bride.

I think this woman is lazy and just looking for something for nothing.
She couldn't just clean the kid's shoes instead of throwing them away? that's just being lazy or foolish. Every time you step in something objectionable do you throw away your shoes or just clean them?
As for the city not enforcing it's laws, can the city afford a police officer to follow every dog owner around to write tickets for not cleaning up after it?
