Not that anybody will read this..
I haven't been to a theater since the last "Ring" movie. That said the house was about 20% full. Some twit sitting behind me was cracking wise and chewing popcorn. I got up and moved away. Yea.. then he shuts TFU.
I'm not a rabid Trek fan. But I do admit that I know more than most people do about the ST franchise. One of my "Online" friends actually designed one of the ST Ships. So far he is not a big fan.
There is a huge publicity machine behind this film. Lots of "Gold Pressed" is riding on the success of this film. That is why EVERYBODY LOVES IT! ..sigh.. The only comfort I can take is this wasn't a Voyager movie.
Right off the bat the makers of THIS Star Trek have no chops. What exactly has JJ Abrams done? Gene Roddenberry went to war. He was an airline pilot and survived a crash. He had the sack to hold it together until rescue. Gene was also a police officer.
JJ Abrams only claim to fame is a friendship with Tom Cruise. Please.
The heart and soul of ST is gone. The "System" has co-opted OUR future. That includes our hopes and dreams.
They did that by wiping out the future. Now free from common sense and a wink and a nod to the makers.. are free to shape and form as they please.
Remember YOU are the product.
GENE (the other one)
