Gawker goes Sci-Fi

Gossipy haters + nerdy shut-ins = my favorite new blog of 2008.

E.G., reasons Star Trek should stay dead:
3. It's no longer looking ahead. Like Star Wars, Trek is trapped in prequel-land. Enterprise bored us by filling in pointless backstory on the early days of Starfleet, but the J.J. Abrams movie looks to be twice as pointless. We already know everything we need to about young Kirk and the other Trek tots. Mining your own past is a prime symptom of idea bankruptcy.
That last sentence should be carved into a public building or something.
