The Occasional Solipsist

Ok, so maybe its not the greatest news of all time perse, but for Star Trek fans, its the best news we've had in a very, very long while.

Aintitcool.com, likely not the first source you think of to get your news, has posted an article outlining a possible new Star Trek movie to begin production soon. The actors being courted for the movie so far: No less than William Shatner, Patrick Stewart and Scott Bakula, all being asked to reprise their captain's roles.

Not much is being said about the story, save for that the 'mirror universe' device will be used, allowing the writers to do whatever they want without messing with canon, and risking pissing off the hard core fans.

Although for my money, if any fan has anything negative to say about getting a new Star Trek movie made at all, especially in light of Enterprise's recent demise, and the news that Startrek.com is going offline at the end of the year, they are no fans at all.

Now no one is confirming this movie rumour yet, but since Spacecast is carrying the story, there has to at least be some grain of truth to it. Right? Right?!?
