Entertainment Weekly has a spread on the new J.J. Abrams' Star Trek movie. Despite the presence of so many beautiful people, it ain't pretty.

Is the world ready again for Trek's optimistic vision of the future? Some involved with the film suspect the presidential election may have a dramatic effect on how Star Trek will be perceived. ''This is a franchise that offers hope for unity — and so does Barack Obama,'' says (the great Zachary "Sylar") Quinto, who has stumped for the Democratic presidential nominee. ''When this movie comes out, and Obama is president, hopefully there will be some parallels.''

Oh, for God's sake. Remember the '90s? Hollywood loved Bill Clinton. What's better than love? I'm not sure there is such a thing.

OK, OK... what's worse?
