>> Filmmaker J.J. Abrams has made it clear he's boldly going where no
>> "Star Trek" has gone before with his upcoming big-screen saga of
>> Captain Kirk and the Enterprise crew's early days, while reportedly
>> promising, "We're serving the people who are completely enamored with
>> Star Trek."
>>
>> Be that as it may, Clifton Collins warns die-hard fans of the original
>> series that this ain't your grandmama's "Star Trek" for sure.
>>
>> "He's totally reinvented the whole thing and taken the cheese out of
>> it," says Collins, who co-stars in the film with Chris Pine, Eric
>> Bana, Winona Ryder, Zoe Saldana and Zachary Quinto. "I tried to watch
>> some of the old 'Star Treks,' and with all due respect, they were
>> probably cool at the time, but I couldn't watch them."
>>
>> He says of the new "Star Trek," "This is the real deal. It's just got
>> a lot of reality. It's not corny at all."

>> How much of it's hearsay when the people who are in the film, and the
