Raumschiff Edelweiss (Edelweiss is a very popular Austrian Hefeweizen beer)

I can't believe they didn't make it big in the US.

Well the Batman film made in 1989 could be considered a reboot too.
There's at least two Batman films that were made before the 1989 version:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman_(1966_film)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041162/
The 1949 Batman was a serial, not a movie.

Serials are short movies. Were shown in movie theatres. also 1949 was the 2nd Batman Serial called "Batman & Robin" actually (and it was better than the movie 50 years or so later with the same name..
:p

ST reboot is a wonderous idea.
Rebooting any franchise is a stupid idea.  Never once has it produced something that didn't suck.

Batman?
Inferior to the original.

The 1941 Serial? then yes. all the Batman movies/TV since have not lived up to all the Tojo bashing  & camp/noir sensibilty from Director Lambert Hillyer in that.
What are you talking about?  Most movies before 1970 didn't actually happen.

Amazingly this movie is starting to rack up very high scores in the major papers over here.

Rotten Tomatoes has it 94% positive, with 93% of the cream of the crop!

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Your date can't stay up that long?
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan

It could have been worst.  Kirk could have been a woman. ;)

I think that it was alright until it became routine.  They did it twice in TOS and once in TNG.  When I really started to get annoyed was in DS9, when they introduced the department of Temporal Investigations.  All of the sudden we were doing more and more time travel, and as I understand it, there was a whole storyline about it in the Enterprise show (which I have never watched).
DS9 was more fond of the alternate universe though.

Voyager had a few episodes with time travel.  The episodes were good, but like you I feel time travel is overdone in sci-fi.

Inferior to the original.
- prefers men in tighs to armored men
- prefers crazy male pilots to crazy female pilots
- is a fan of Kirk
- likes to tease Martinus

I always suspected you were gay.

But if there is a Starfleet Michael Winslow, it will more than make up for things.  Imagine how cool it'd be to hear him making phaser and transporter noises, and imitating Spock.
It's called Spaceballs, Cal. :contract:

:P
Experience bij!

Who's Marinus?
