I read a comic book recently (New Universal, a new title) in which an Arkansas hick is visited by people from alternate Earths. When he gets where they're from he goes "Spock with a beard!"

"I can say that when the script came in, it was so well written, it was so emotional, it was fun, and big and I found myself unable to not direct it," Abrams said, according to Fest21.com. "I couldn't give it up. I think it's going to be great. If in my gut I felt there was nothing else to offer, I wouldn't do it. It's not a business decision. I would rather take no money and do something inspiring. I hope it ends up being both a really cool, original, emotional ride and comes from something that we're familiar with." The new movie, reported to be a re-imagining of the original series, is likely to be the most expensive, action-packed Trek film to date, according to script writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci. "I'd feel like an idiot if I let someone else [direct] it," Abrams said in a recent interview on Wired.com, where he also states that the script is "clearly a fun, emotional and wild adventure. I can't believe that they're letting us do this." The next Trek film is scheduled for release Dec. 25, 2008."
