STAR TREK by JJ Abrams - new photos

Keep in mind here, that he's more of a writer producer, besides a few episodes of Lost and Alias, the only film he's actually directed is MI3. Granted that's an action movie, but only one movie isn't enough to base a judgement on, IMO.

Star Trek: Tiberius Cologne For Men

Tiberius Cologne for Men gets physical, quickly blending chemistry and emotion. Crisp and clean; a casual yet commanding fragrance spiked with raised notes of freshness and sensuality. Difficult to define. Impossible to resist.

Inspired by a man on a mission, a journey of sensual discovery.

Tiberius — boldly go.

They do? If it makes me just half as successful as Kirk with women...

Sure-- but the catch is that it only works on green-skinned aliens.

Well, everybody's gotta start somewhere.

Attractive green-skinned aliens.

I guess the problem is finding even one of them, eh?

Hey... If it can make the stereotypical convention-goer smell a little sweeter, I'm all for it.

it would suck to see Star Trek permanently die.

I disagree. A good death is preferably to an eternity of studios suckling at the necrotic teat of an undead cash cow. Far too many franchises fade intro mediocrity because they are not allowed to come to a good end and instead they defile themselves in hopes of expanding past their loyal core audience.

Remakes can run the gamut from Masterpiece that breaths a soul into a soulless original to a Rotting flesh golem stitched together from a drained out cashcow. Unfortunately the latter is more common than the former.

I'd like to think James T. Kirk (and co.) on their way to becoming characters for the ages, like Robin Hood or Sherlock Holmes.

Though it's true I'd like to think that because I've been a Star Trek fan since the age of 4...
