Trek's Musings about the world.
The new Star Trek movie is out today! Everyone go see it!

Yes, I've seen it. I saw it Wednesday as part of an advance screening. It's truly an excellent movie, and I'm not just saying it because I'm a huge Trek geek. whee

I won't say much about the movie here, since I don't want to spoil anything, except that it's getting phenomenal reviews. Here's a colleciton of quotes from various sources regarding the movie:

“This year’s ‘Iron Man’.” - Geoff Boucher, LA Times

"'Star Trek is way cool." - NEWSWEEK headline/feature

“Familiarity with the franchise is irrelevant. ‘Star Trek’ is exciting on its own terms.” - Todd McCarthy VARIETY

“Get yourself excited…very, very excited…for the first A+ movie of the summer.” - film.com

“…enough to move even a ‘Star Wars’ fan to tears.” - Robert Wilonsky VILLAGE VOICE

“I just about wept with joy, and I’m not even a Trekkie.” - Ty Burr BOSTON GLOBE

“Seeing it once is not enough.” - Lisa Fuller-Magee, KNBC

There's quite a few trailers online, but my favorite one is this one. You can find a less choppy version of it on the official web site.

Go see it! ^_^

Seen it already? Wanna see it? Post a comment below! ^_^

Here's a few Star Trek tekteks for everyone to try on!

James Kirk
Lieutenant Uhura
Chief Engineer "Scotty"
Science Officer Spock
Ensign Pavel Chekov
Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy
Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu

I have others, but I'll just leave it at the original crew for now.

Live long and prosper everyone! heart

No comments?
Dude, wft.
This movie deserves comments here. D:<

Bones for the win; Urban totally did him well.

And according to my friend, the only disadvantage
young!Spock had in front of the High Council was
wearing that lovely knitted sweater.

I'm still watching the original series, I'm picking my way through them,
but I think the movie did the show some damn good justice.
A lot better than other movies based on books/tv shows.

I loved the new Star Trek. It was everything I love about reboots, and exactly what the franchise needed.

This movie was awesome. I saw it late (last month) but was certainly worth the wait.

And 'This years ironman' is an understatement. Ironman sucked compared to this, and I'm an ironman freak..
