I was looking around the net for the opening date of the new Star Trek Movie set to open in May and I found that it opens in the US and in Mexico on the 8th of May. I try to stay away from reviews before I even see the movie because I want to make up my own mind about the quality of the movie. As I was searching about, I discovered an online series called Star Trek:PhaseII. It takes place in the same time frame as The Original Series but uses different actors playing the original characters, and tries to keep in line with the aliens that have been encountered at that time. You need to download the episodes but they are free and I have begun to watch a few. They are interesting if you are a super die hard Trek fan and you can have fun looking at the older ship designs, sound effects and music.The acting is sub-par but I like the risks they take and if they have time and energy to create this series, then more power to them. In the mean time, I am getting very excited to see the latest Star Trek Movie and I hope one day they decide to bring back a Star Trek series to mainstream television. Here is a link to the website for Star Trek : Phase II.
