    Besides the epic awesomnosity, this art reminds people that Photoshop and Illustrator can't do everything. Analog illustration wins again! #sciencefictionart

    @GreyHammer: Lucas used up all the "entire planets that are based on specific geographical regions" so it's hard to imagine someone else coming up with something new.

    That being said, it was definitely a homage to Hoth, wampa and all. #startrek

    This book had to be made to keep up the Star Trek book tradition. I remember when I was a kid I had the tech manual and the concordance and used them while watching the series every night on channel 39.
    I still wish one day they would build the Dreadnought.

    "Hey let's make Kirk land on a desert planet!"

    "You mean like Tatooine?"

    "Hm. Okay. Let's make it an ice planet!"

    "You mean like Hoth?"

    "...shut up."

    This movie sucked.

    @jeremydeananderson003: Agreed. My guess as to why Abrams rebooted Star Trek is because he couldn't reboot Star Wars. So, he tried to make Star Trek as close as he could to Star Wars without making it too obvious. Of course, he failed. #startrek

    @Pope John Peeps II: No this was not directed at the author of the story! Just saying that they keep coming up with more and more every week about the DVD. It was directed towards the industry. So relax. io9 is one of my favorite sites ever. I would never say anything in that manner.

    So forgive me if it seemed that way. Not the case.

    Peace #startrek

    But in the end, we are all humans, right?

    Data is totally the Butch - 3PO is such a prissy twink, he should have been wearing a skirt from the day Anakin pulled him out of the trash.

    Actually, do andriods even count as having Gender? #starwars
