Funk Babblings

B5 fans may have heard that at one point J. Michael Straczynski worked on a treatment for a new Star Trek series. Now his cohort on that project has written about it and even posted the 14-page treatment as a PDF. This was to have been an alternate-universe Trek, retaining the elements they liked and ridding themselves of what they disliked.

From the article I also learned what I was apparently supposed to already know, that JJ Abrams (of Lost and Alias fame) will be doing a Star Trek prequel film. With him running things it should be good, but then again it'll be an odd-numbered Trek movie.....
