GEEKS and the Moron squad
By Glassman Cometh

This is actually aimed at GEEKINTHECITY's comments, but others as well...anyone who actually believes having Shatner in this new movie is a bad idea couldn't be more wrong if they tried....

GEEK, your long passage was filled with such a large volume of crap it amazed me that someone with your writing talent isn't a little more 'intuned' with the real world...

Let's just state fact here...

1. The bottom line....is always money. And to get money you want your movie to have exposure. Shatner is currently, if you haven't noticed, winning Emmy awards and is actually pretty hip with old, AND younger people. There is a good chance he will win yet another Emmy. And incase you have been sleeping for the last oh, 40 years...he is the BY FAR the most recognized person associated with Star Trek....no one else, not Nimoy, not Stewart, heck not even it's creator, Roddenberry, even come close...HE IS Star Trek...or hadn't you noticed...

ALL of that means....exposure. He is everywhere...and since all ages like this guy, not to have him any movie that is actually 'passing the baton' by rebooting would be a mistake of EPIC callibre. HE is the magnet to bring in people to your movie...and as I stated above...it all comes down to MONEY. Is it stunt casting? Maybe. But so what? STUNT casting is part of movie making....You people talk down stunt casting but some of the best movies HAVE stunt casting in them...SO WHAT?

For this reboot, and any further movies it may spawn, to have a chance to survive it must do everything it can to pull in the largest box office on that first movie. ..it's that simple...and Shatner, more than anyone else associated with Trek, can do that....if you deny that simple fact then you are a moron and should be eliminated from the gene pool.

And for those who think he is too old to be Kirk? Are you nuts? Do you actually believe that dribble? Humans get older. It's what we do.

BUT...this is what I want to see. I hope you moronic-trek fans follow through with your threats and stop being fans. THAT is exactly what Trek needs. One giant ENEMA. Time to clear out all that bile...YOU.

And as Shatner would say....DENNY CRANE!!

Chaotic
