JJ Abrams had a tough job trying to remain faithful to what constituted the original Star Trek while upping the game by starting with a new cast playing iconic characters and aiming to broaden the aging fan base that has been in decline. I think he succeeded in every way. Great script, great casting, great first story getting the crew together, and great producing and directing. I felt like all $150 million bucks was up there on the screen. I can't wait for the next one to come out May 17, 2013. Star Trek Into Darkness.

For the record, Firefly was not a sci-fi. It was a western...
... which just happened to take place in space...
... in the future...
... on a spaceship...
Just sayin'.

LOL!!! I liked Firefly and wish the movie had done good at the box office because I would have liked to have seen more of it on the big or small screen. When the movie did poorly that pretty much killed Firefly once and for all. It is a shame a cable channel like SyFy didn't pick it up when the network cancelled it.

I don't classify myself as a Trekkie, but Star Trek is one of my favorite shows. Especially The Next Generation.

a Futuristic Space Noodle Western
In Firefly/Serenity, the Chinese won. There is a lot of Chinese visual influences in the movie
