Star Trek XI: Romulan Wars?

Tycoon Guy writes "TrekToday reports that the next Star Trek movie will deal with the war between Earth and the Romulans that led to the founding of the Federation. According to Rick Berman, the film will be 'set before the time of Kirk, but will not be connected with Enterprise.' So how will they make this fit with the Classic Trek episode Balance of Terror, in which we learned that no human ever saw the face of a Romulan during the Romulan Wars?"

Yeah, I saw the episodes. I STILL want to know what happens next. With half the team dead, the ladies crash landed, and an Armada on the Chig doorstep, you can't get the suspense any higher. Of course, Fox cancelled it before we found out what happened next.

*sigh*

A liberal hatchet-job by Anonymous Coward · 2004-07-09 08:28 · Score: -1, Offtopic

Rumsfeld Rumsfeld Rumsfeld, LSD....AAHHH! SNAAAAKE!
Oh, aren't you brave. Taking words out of context and throwing them in Rumsfeld's face without giving him chance to investigate and prepare answers.
A liberal hatchet-job if I've ever seen one.

  Out of context? Clearly, those words are very contextful.
  
  Why should he be given a chance to investigate and prepare answers? So he can come up with a bunch of horse-hockey, and avoid the question like he always does?
  
  Face it... He was caught with his hand down America's pants--fondling our naughty bits and all. Why should we give him the chance to say "Oh, sorry! My bad! I thought those were MY pants. And besides, I only accidentally brushed up against your package. I wouldn't know, for example, if you have an 12" penis, and balls the size of water chestnuts--for example that is, purely hypothetical. What's that? You want to smell my finger? Why, gosh-darnit? What? You say because you think I was toying with your anus? Oh, you're sure of it, are you? Well... Too bad. It's my finger. I'm the only one that can sniff it! Nahhnahhnah!" *runs away to daddy (Dick Cheny)*

Fox has a tendancy of doing that. The cobbled together ending for Dark Angel (when it was suddenly cancled during the second season) is another good example.

"destroying records and doctoring memories..." by Anonymous Coward · 2004-07-09 16:57 · Score: -1, Offtopic

God, wouldn't the Bush administration LOVE to have the capability of "doctoring memories"?
They certainly have no qualms about destroying records....

Is pResident Bush hiding something?
Look! It's the Fa-a-abulous Outing of Mr. Gee Dubya Bushikins

(Maybe he was "outed" before: and the event got him removed from the National Guard.
Could that be why those records had to be "inadvertently" destroyed?)
