Go See Star Trek!






Shout out to B. Free Paparazzi for the hook up on the FREE Viewing of the new Star Trek Movie last night.

I am not going to go on and on about it but look not only is this a GREAT Star Trek Movie (best in the franchise if you ask me) - this is a GREAT movie. I am certain that old fans will be more than satisfied and the uninitiated will soon be "assimilated". LOL.

If I had to describe this movie - its like take every "what if" question you ever had about Star Trek, and every folk-lore saying about Star Trek (ala - Capt. Kirk will sleep with even a green woman - yes they go there), mix them up and take out the restraints of having a 40+ year old cast (a la' the first Star Trek movie) or the culture handcuffs of the late 60's (a la the original series) - THEN put that mix on some Manny Ramirez steroids (sorry couldn't resist) - and then you would have this STAR TREK.

Basically I say all of that to say this - GET OUT ON A THURSDAY AND GO SEE THE MOVIE!

The Wrath of Khan is still better. Better plot and character development. Plus you can't beat the emotional response of Spock dying and the great Capt Kirk not handling it.

The new movie did show a glimpse of this when the old Spock met the young Jim Kirk and his FEELINGS (yes, Vulcan feelings) survived the time travel, alternate timeline, etc.

"I have and always shall be, your friend".......Great line from BOTH movies!
