So, there is going to be an actor's strike now. While the rest of the country struggles to fill our gas tanks, actors who make 20 million a pop are going to beg for more. Sometimes I just cannot stand Hollywood anymore. Yes, I know there are struggling actors out there, it just doesn't seem right that the $20 million a pop stars will also benefit from a strike and be the most vocal about it.

Now, about Trek. Next May is filling up quickly and I really think, now more then ever, that Paramount made a huge mistake by moving this film. I love Trek but, I believe it will get lost in the shuffle of summer blockbusters by today general audiences when it would have been the only thing to see this Christmas. I also believe the same thing will happen to Indiana Jones in a few weeks. Todays audiences will be turned off by the "old style" of movie making and it will get lost among the other movies coming out.
