Hey,
zinjadu (and all other Sean Bean and/or Shakespeare fans)...
Take a look at this.

Update: Oh, and while I'm linkspamming... I did a little checking at the official Star Trek site (www.startrek.com, as though any of you couldn't have guessed it...) and found this:
In addition to clarifying that he may or may not direct the film, Abrams also distanced himself from Variety's report that the plot of "Star Trek XI" would revolve around a young James T. Kirk and Spock at Starfleet Academy.
"We've made a pact not to discuss any specifics," he said.
At the same time, though, he confessed to being a fan of the Original Series and remarked, "Those characters are so spectacular. I just think that... you know, they could live again."
I'm a bit relieved by this, honestly, mostly because the Starfleet Academy plot idea seemed even further from the usual Trek movie than I'd expect. Still very interested to see what comes of this.

Like this.Yeah... having a pretty face is one thing, having a pretty face that's also emotive is something else altogether.

With all the plastic in her face? I'm certain you could.
Everyone knows she's really a cyborg... or maybe I just wish she was, cos at least then she'd be a little bit cool.no subject
Date: 2006-09-09 07:35 am (UTC)Talk about not being able to emote.
And at least if she was a cyborg I wouldn't blame her for all the future generations who will think she is cool and totally want to be her.no subject

This sparked a huuuuuge debate in the comments over exactly how one does make a good cup of tea. Neil later posted with regards to the hubbub, something along the lines of, "Wow. I haven't caused this much uproar since I mentioned that I didn't really want to know about RPS, especially if it involved me." That just made me laugh.

Date: 2006-09-09 08:31 am (UTC)Well I went from being in the South to Okinawa, JP and unless I wanted Liptons tea I had to buy the Japanese kind. Which btw is really bitter compared to the Americanized tea and I found that I liked it. I did't drink a lot of it, kinda made me sick if I did that but it was enjoyable.
