IIRC they did a couple of spin-off novels that reworked the Eugenics Wars as a "secret war" played out over the course of the real conflicts of the 1990s. Having just watched Space Seed and Wrath of KHAAAAAAAAN, it's pretty obviously a clunky attempt to retcon the old episodes. Not having read them, I'm not sure how well the attempt worked...humm
The Eugenics Wars (or the Great Wars) were a series of conflicts fought on Earth in the mid-1990s. The result of a scientific attempt to improve the Human race through selective breeding and genetic engineering, the wars devastated parts of Earth, by some estimates officially causing some 30 million deaths, and nearly plunging the planet into a new Dark Age.
reboot needed?



Reboots=Win (BB, CR)
Prequels=Fail (Wolverine, Star Wars, Temple of Doom)
Saw an interview with the writers of the new film - apparently they're thinking of bringing KHAAAAAAAAAAAN back, and getting Javier Bardem to play him.![]()

It's gonna do for Star Trek what Batman Begins did for Batman and Casino Royale for Bond.

Not so sure, the new Hulk isn't as bad as it could have been. Although I still prefer the other one...
I'm not going to be able to watch without going 'look out captain , it's sylar!'

The new hulk wasn't a prequel was it?
I actually quite enjoyed it.
I'm not sure what you mean by "history". All that happened between Kirk and Khan was in "Space Seed". After that he didn't see him again until "TWOK". How they'd work him back in I don't know.Oh man that would be great! If they did it as a the history between him and Kirk and the events leading up to his enforced exile even better!![]()

Yeah but Sherlock Holmes and Superman were already established characters before anyone played them, and no one played them for as long as Shatner and Nemoy played their characters. They played them for so long, and basically created them so that Kirk IS Shatner and Spock IS Nemoy.Going to see this next week, when I'm on holiday. I've been a Trekkie since it was first shown on the Beeb, and, to put it mildly, I hae me doots, but if Abrams does pull it off, I'll be cheering from the rafters. I'd love a reboot to work, nothing has ever matched original Trek, and just as we've accepted different actors playing Sherlock Holmes or Superman over the years, I'm not opposed to the concept of a different Kirk/Spock per se. I just want it to be right.

The first film was shit, there can be no doubt. The question is if it's better than Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahn!Yeah, but this new film looks tons better than the original Trek, which was really quite dull.



Definite contender for best science fantasy/space opera film ever, even gives the old star wars films a good seeing to.
But the Trek Purists will despise it, mereckons.
