I wish I could remember where this quote is from: "The only thing you should have faith in is that eventually you will be wrong. Look forward to it."
Trekmovie.com posted a look at some of the new toys coming out.
USS Enterprise featuring Kirk, Spock, Bones and two other figures labeled as "Villains".
Next is the Klingon Bird of Prey which has Kirk in his civilian garb, Uhura and two Klingons. I knew the Klingon BoP was a tiny ship, but this looks more like a star fighter from Star Wars.
Up next is the Volcano mission with Spock and Sulu. Wonder what the red pieces are for. Lava decoration?
A scene called "Transporter Accident" featuring Scotty and a Klingon.
Kirk's Space Dive with John Harrison sporting what looks like Star Trek's second bazooka.
A mini-ship line which Hasbro was kind enough to display the Klingon Cruiser backwards.
Figure packs featuring Nero, a Gorn, Grasia, a new character named Lieutenant Sprong, Keenser and a Klingon.

Grats dude!
I just wish they had a better song that wasn't meant as a huge love letter to how awesome humanity is while at the same time being a big fu** you to the Vulcans. You don't think that was the point? Here's a taste of Archer's behavior around T'Pol, all from the first episode of the series.
And it's not like this series had any interest in letting the Vulcans have a point to show humanity that there are ways that are better than the ones we have. No. One of this re-occuring theme throughout this series that all the Vulcans ever do is hold humanity back. It's such a big theme that even other aliens comment on it. T'Pol can't even make a comment regarding crew morality without Archer lashing out at her. So if your theme song was meant to show how selfish and condescending our heroes are towards anyone who has a different opinion, well, mission accomplished.
Sorry, I don't agree so much with that. Sure they wanted to show that Humanity can 'find its own way' but it's undeniable, even in Enterprise, that the role of the Vulcans was crucial to the development of Starfleet.
Wow. I couldn't disagree more with you about this. There are actually SEVERAL examples of T'Pol getting her messages through and not being 'lashed' out at.
Even a simple example that comes to mind, the episode when she, Archer, and Tripp are eating together and she cuts through that bread stick with a knife and gets the fork through it with out making a mess of it. Doesn't she say something along the lines of 'with proper discipline, anything is possible'? No one shoots her down, in fact they were both impressed.
Archer ends up relying on her advice on several occasions.

I enjoyed Enterprise for what it was but it was certainly flawed. The stuff with the Xindi, while I liked the conflict of conscience that it produced and the idea of the expanse, was a little too "military" to me. While Trek certainly has that aspect to it it falls down when it focuses and dwells on it.
The future agent crap was annoying as well.

I liked Enterprise (except for the finale) but the problem I had with it along with Star Trek 09 was, I am tired of time travel plots. Isn't there someone in all of Hollywood who is creative enough to come up with another plot point.
Sorry for going a little off topic here but seriously, we have the new X-Men movie, we just had Looper. I'm worried the next Star Wars movie, someone approached Disney execs and said "what if a sith goes back and kills Shmi before she has Anakin"
But back to topic, I'm looking forward to this next Star Trek. Khan or not, it looks like it might be pretty good. I hope they soon get to heading out to "where no one has gone before" and leave "where everyone knows your name"

Because if there's one thing that highlights a character's role more than her exploitive skin-tight attire, it's being able to use a fork. And while I will give you that Archer does take her advice on occasion, you'll find that those episodes aren't usually written by either Berman or Bragga, the creators of Enterprise.
Hey, that skin tight attire was half the reason I was watching! :lol
You'll know we'll get there when the film makers can actually come out and say they're making a Star Trek movie and not just a 'movie' for 'movie fans'.
