Burning out his fuse up here... alone

Various sources are tabbing Chris Pine, star of Smokin Aces and various teeny bopper movies, as the favorite to play Captain Kirk in the upcoming Star Trek prequel. Right away I see a problem: the crew is going where no man has gone before, while from the looks of the pic I found Pine has gone where many, many men have gone before.

Entirely Logical

Heroes star Zachary Quinto has been confirmed as landing the sought after role of Spock in the Star Trek prequel that will be written and directed by J.J. Abrams. (Alias, Lost, M:I 3)


With all due respect to Jonathan Frakes, J.J. Abrams is by far the most accomplished director to helm a Star Trek movie. This is truly make-or-break time for the once mightiest of franchises. After Enterprise's premature cancellation, Paramount is at risk of losing a generation of nerds. But I'm confident this movie will deliver.
