Sorry folks, I've been behind again in moderating comments. (Though there are actually other 'bloggers' on this one blog, I think they have the capability of moderating comments, but they're probably busy too...)
I've decided to go back and take another look at this movie, and I've decided that I must come up with at least 10 Good Reasons to like this movie... well... why not, if the people that love it so much can do nothing but swear at us, I think they should come up with at least 10 to my 100 (actually I've probably come up with more than 200 by now).
So here they are: 10 Reasons to LIKE the Abrams Trek Film
1. The Arab Captain. He was interesting, a neat actor, perhaps the first arab in Star Trek (?). Oh but they killed him in less than two minutes...oh well.
2. The actor that played Doctor McCoy did a decent job I think. It seems he went to the Ewan McGregor school of acting 'remake characters.' Not bad, though McCoy had blue eyes, and it seems they didn't tell the actor this wasn't really a serious Star Trek movie, just a parody.
3. Uhhh....let's see, what else is there...the shirts...well, the collar idea is clever, where its really a black sweatshirt underneath a colored jersey, but I didn't like the polyester football jersey fabric they were made of...not too bad...
4.... searching.... searching... the outside of the ENTERPRISE didn't look too bad... hmmm although it was hard to see with all the lens flares and shaky cam shots...
5. damn this is hard.... Checkov ... he was kind of funny once in one scene.
6. Okay... now I'm having trouble here... this is hard. Were there any Tribbles? There were no tribbles, but I can't totally remember. No tribbles is a good thing right?
7. Crap, I can't come up with any more reasons... this is not good.
8. ???
9. ?????
10. ??????????? !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, let me know if you can actually find any other "GOOD" reasons to like the movie, or if my 'good' reasons really fall flat, because seriously folks I cannot come up with any more.

Some erratas.........
ReplyDeleteReason 1: The guy who played Dr Bashir in DS9 is Arab but i'm not sure. (I don't remember his name though)
Reason 6: There's a tribble in ST2009. In the butcher's cold chamber...huh..i mean the federation outpost on Delta Vega on Scotty's desk in a small cage.
Now laet's try to add some good reasons
7 - This movie is a good cure to constipation.
8 - The ending credits: The "Final Frontier" speech, The revamped D.C. Fontana's theme, These different cosmic scenaries during the credits. Besides the fact it's a sign the movie will end soon, this is the only part of the movie we see some real Star Trek stuff.
that's it....
I haven't really enjoyed the TREK franchise since "VOYAGER" went off the air. I tried with "ENTERPRISE". I really did. But . . .
