And they have a long list of prerequistites for the character without then having to go down to the finiest detail like eye colour. Besides, thats easily fixed with contacts...though personally I'd rather see Paul's baby blues onscreen!

Scotty had brown eyes, if I remember right, and Paul has blue eyes. That is a difference. The only problem I have with Paul playing Scotty iis his eyes….

Watching the casting news has been changing my mind, though, and making me much more interested in the OS movie. My husband has a theory: he says that all the casting announcements have come after rumors. He thinks in fact that the producers are testing the waters, seeing how people react to rumors. Positive reaction to Zachary Quinto and Zoe Saldana? Sign them! Lukewarm to James McAvoy? Maybe we should do some more auditions.... Trekmove.com has been running polls; their archive is at http://trekmovie.com/index/pollsarchive/. Support for Paul is overwhelming, at 67%; if you consider that Chris Doohan, the next highest at 17%, has thrown his support to Paul, the competition barely registers. I certainly hope my husband is right, because if fan reaction counts, Paul should definitely get the role. Fingers crossed.... Hey, April, I’m with you on DS9!

I was very upset about the casting for the new star trek movie till i saw this! I don't care if the rest of the cast doesn't fit the part but if Paul McGillion gets the role of Scotty... I WILL SEE IT!!!!!! But he still should have NEVER been taken off SG Atlantis.... what a mistake... long live Paul McGillion!!!!!!!! I totally support this.

I love Star Trek but didn't want to see them do a young version of the original, I myself wanted them to update us with Deep Space 9. However if Paul is cast then I will watch the movie! Besides which I liked them casting Zachary as Spock. Go Paul!! Step one, audition aced!

Paul for Scotty! I have just one choice for Kirk: Ben Browder! He is an amazing actor, he like scifi, he played in 2 sci fi popular shows : Farscape and Stargate SG-1. Even if he will be 45 next december, he doesn't make his age. He will be the perfect Kirk! Yes! Paul for Scotty!
