Posted - Mar 07 2009 : 08:37:05 ..a die-hard fan of Star Trek initially I was a little turned off by this series. I watched it for the first couple episodes but didn't find it interesting enough to continue watching.
However, for kicks I started ordering, beginning with the first season, the entire trilogy and have been watching before going to bed. I really like it. I guess it's alot better when you can watch one episode after another. The story lines move faster and not commercials is a plus.
I liken it to LOST. Same thing there. Never watched until season 5. Got the full series from Netflix, season 1. Watched it and now am a fan..
Just bored I guess.. |

Can't say the movie lived up to the hype. It was good, but not great. Transformers was a far better movie.
One of my biggest problems was the science was absolutely ludicrous. Creating a black hole in a planet?!? Why would you ever need to drill a hole with one of those? The uber (former mining) ship of doom!? Ala Borg style. I was hoping for some fleet action and not 2 ships sitting motionless in space at 100 paces (think old west shootout). The obvious scenes that we can all see again when the video game comes out (Scotty in a tube who needs to be rescued).
The best part of the entire movie was the opening scene. |

Posted - May 18 2009 : 19:05:58 Petri, I cant fathom why you cant play Project Torque with me. The girls portrayed are rendered, not real. And I have never even paused to stare at em for more than 2 or 3 minutes . Even if my new girlfriend resembles one of the splash screen girls . I cant see the point of such censorship in your own home. But I will always be glad to play approved games with ya bro. No joke there.
Far as the new Star Trek movie....Im headed out in about 10 min to go see it. |

Well, I think with Petri if a man looks at a woman.. HA! THAT'S soft porn to him...
Actually, that statement best describes my wife. While those scenes make me uncomfortable due to their unnecessary nature (they really are), they don't give rise to the: walk out reflex my wife exhibits.

Aaaaaaannnnd I still write PasadenaPolitics.net. Call it my experiment with the administration's tolerance of dissent (hey, Hillary thinks dissent is Patriotic - and so is paying your taxes).  |

Posted - May 14 2009 : 08:52:53 Yep, saw it for the 3rd. time last yesterday. Got my 17 year old out of school to see it at Imax. SHE LOVED IT! You're right BH, how all the characters met was really cool and kinda funny. Every time I go I pick something else up. I still think you have to see it on the big screen. Seeing on a TV, even a 60" flat will truly not do the filming justice.. |

Saw it twice and may go back again. Incredible job with both the canon of the series and the characters. Young Kirk, Kirk meets Bones, Bones ruuning around shooting Kirk up with everything in the book, Kirk meets Scotty... all hilarious moments that stuck with me long after I left the theatre.
They even managed to get a "crewman #6" moment in there too. Nothing like the role as the first to croak with Kirk on a mission. |
