>>> Filmmaker J.J. Abrams has made it clear he's boldly going where no

>>> Be that as it may, Clifton Collins warns die-hard fans of the original

>>> "He's totally reinvented the whole thing and taken the cheese out of

>> Yeah they are saying things that might be easy to take out of

>> done, finito. Time to move on. The new movie will be different and

>> camaraderie and combine it with a good sci-fi story, it could work and
