So?

Like I said, if someone were to create a fantasy culture influenced by western culture, does that preclude the possibility of non-whites appearing in that work? Absolutely not.

Also, I wouldn't be mad if they cast the Avatar characters with Asians, my point is it doesn't matter, because the characters aren't Asian (in the biological sense), because they don't, and never did, exist.

Of for god's sake, I'm completely with you on this issue, for the most part, but stop bringing up Avatar! Those characters aren't Asian! They're not historical! The main character even looks white!

Saying one particular 'race' gets exclusive rights to being depicted in a fantasy culture, simply because it resembles a historical culture made up of people of that race is god damn ridiculous. Imagine if whites said Asians and Blacks etc. were not allowed to be depicted in fantasy cultures that resemble ancient western culture, there'd be outrage! That is of course ignoring the fact no one has even tried that, but I'm not against you in saying the fact it hasn't been tried is an issue.

If you want to pick a fight with a film for this issue, pick something like 21, where historical Asian characters were changed to white ones, or Prince of Persia where a Persian (a real culture/country, unlike Avatar) character is being depicted by a white person.

I'd like to tell you what I think, but unlike Paramount with Star Trek, the producers of Terminator have decided to wait 2 bloody weeks until they release in Australia.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if piracy was strangely higher for this movie than Star Trek in Australia. Jesus Christ movie studios get your act together, we want to pay to see these movies too!

That goes to you too Disney, Up in September? SEPTEMBER? Fuck you!

So nothing can happen in 24 hours? Riiiight.

All I want them to do is make the story actually feel like it's taking place within 24 hours. Remember Sangala, Juma, the hearing, Emerson, Matobo, the planes colliding etc.? Yeah, they all supposedly happened the same day as what's going on now.

**** You CBS!

Sounds like it could be cool. They need to do something different for the next movies, having 3 movies all set in the future could get boring pretty quickly, without something to mix things up a bit.

Whether or not it will work, well that depends on how well McG handled Salvation, and we don't know that yet.

Didn't we already know this was shooting in Sydney? At least I was under that impression, and that would be odd if it wasn't the case until now.

I was kinda worried about Quinto as Spock, he didn't seem to resemble Nimoy in any way other than appearance, but he really nailed the performance in this clip.

Why?

John Cho is older than Takei was when Trek started, and the rest of the cast apart from Pine and Yelchin are over 30, with Pine being 28, hardly a 'young' cast, it's in the same ballpark as the show.
