Watch This: 'Star Trek' Meets 'Beverly Hills 90210'
Filed under: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fandom, Trailers and Clips

The latest Star Trek trailer has only been floating around for a few days online (24 hours for the official version), and it sure didn't take long to find a spoof-ish video up on YouTube. The production qualities aren't very strong, but I couldn't help and chuckle throughout this new (and improved?) trailer that uses the theme song from Beverly Hills 90210 against re-edited footage from Star Trek. The result? A group of hot young guys and gals from the future who like to play with big weapons and sexy lingerie. Yowsers!
They do make a point to stop and run the bit where Uhura takes off her shirt over and over again alongside the exclamation: "Boobs in Star Trek" -- and I can't figure out whether that's a bad thing. Is it a bad thing? Or are some Trekkers so withdrawn from sexual activity that it scares them to see partial nudity tossed around the Enterprise. I don't get it. Didn't Kirk have sex all the time back in the day with a number of different females? Why are fans so outraged at the thought of a little kinky foreplay in this version of Star Trek? These kids are young, strong, hot and all cooped up on this ship in outer space -- what else do you expect them to do? Make fun of Chekov's accent?
Where was I? Oh yeah ... check out the video below.
[Thanks Dave]

Well you'd think the bridge of the Enterprise would be a place for professionalism (barring mind control/diseases/etc.etc), not for letting loose.
If I remember right in the original series they used their mess hall for recreation?
Think of the modern day eqivalent:
Commanders overseeing the battlefield from their HQ. There's a lull in battle so they call up some strippers. Oh yeah!
Or the predators pilots piloting a drone in IRaq while they are sitting here back in the US. You just know it's 99% boring, what do they do for that 99% of the time? Get nekkid!
Obviously this is a move but it should still be Star Trek and stick to the professionalism that the Federation is known for. Not for giving a sexy image for all the kids today.
