Ehm, I've never really enjoyed Star Trek at all, but I hope this project goes well.

as the series' went on, the aliens became more and more diverse...
and the ones that are still 'two eyes, two arms and two legs', well, that was explained years ago...
as for lack of ideas? umm, no... they still publish new books regularly, and there are plenty of new aliens in those...
not to mention what enterprise did, creating new and revamping older alien species...
i don't know if replacing shatner as kirk is a good idea, i really don't... but i know i definitely don't like the idea that abrams is intent on making his own version of star trek... a re-imagining could be really bad...

I just cant see, anyone playing Kirk, except Shatner, he made the role completely his, they should present a new crew.

Matt Damon could do a good job. Adrien Brody was rumoured to be playing Spock, which would be quite nice. A decent actor.

what's wrong with em? shatner was eccentric, but he did his job, and there have never been any problems with nimoy's spock as far as i've heard...

No, of course they do well for what their roles are, but "great actors"? Not at all. darthmaul1 suggested either Matt Damon or Adrien Brody was annoying, but compared to Nimoy and Shatner? Pfft

but thats it isnt it? they're good at what was required of them, thats all that can be asked...
the thing, imo, is that for so long these characters have been associated with shatner and nimoy, i think its going to be hard for any other actors to come in and make those roles their own...

The only people that could really make these character come alive again are going to have to be decent actors; not your run of the mill TV actor, not your ego-frenzied A lister. Damon and Adrian Brody could pull it off, in the same way Bale pulled off Bruce Wayne.

You might not stand him, but he is probably the finest young method actor around and, as of now, his generation/

I will never trust your opinion again.
Christian Bale = Greatest method actor of his generation (of what we have seen of that generation).
Really, what films have you seen of his?
Batman Begins? (Voted Best Batman in most of the KMC polls) American Psycho? (Can't have if you think he's crap)
The Machinist? (Ya definitely have not seen that)
The Prestige? Shaft?
Empire of the Sun?? (he was like 13 for crying out loud!)
Really. You just have it all wrong.

There's some stinkers too! Shaft, for example, I don't consider a decent film, but Bale was bloody manic in it.

Yea Shaft was pretty bad. I agree you cant always have a perfect script, but his performaces are usually above par.
