Or is that next season? I saw the commercial for the season premier of Prison Break, I like the stereotypical Asian tech guy character in that commercial. I got a good laugh at that one...

Its the writing and story that might send it off course. I predict it will prob have a real good opening weekend, and then fade into a possible 200 mil grossing domestically film. I don't see it beating Iron Man or TDK domestic. I have a bad feeling Nimoy is going to steal the film and I don't know if that's a good thing yet? ^ My friend had this comment on Fringe I found amusing. "It's a mix of X-Files, Altered States, and whatever else you can imagine these three amigos were brought up with.." 8-) Well Star Trek’s gonna be a big hit opening weekend for sure, its freash and new, and I’m sure visually will look awesome.

Regardless, if this were a thermometer for gauging audience anticipation, they need to take note, quit spending money on all the viral stuff - and spend it on the story."</i> May be more on target than some wanted to believe? Should we worry about Star Trek, or do you think that they probably focused more on Star Trek and just pumped the media for Fringe.... Like one panel attendee asked: "Hey J.J., is Fringe going to be one of those shows you put your name on, then just move on from, to your next project?" I thought that was a classic inquiry. LOL. 790: So basically what I said about the Fringe panel at Comic Con:

Acting, writing, story all bad. He's is concerned for the new Star Trek movie, written by the same team. :-( :-( :-( Friend of mine watched a rough cut of the Fringe pilot, and said it was horrible.
