These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise…
I can’t help it. I’m getting excited about the new Star Trek movie. I’ll probably go see a midnight showing, even.
I mean, come on, it’s Star Trek! And if you’re not convinced, watch this:
Two concerns, though:
1. Did anyone else think the music was just a wee bit reminiscent of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight?
2. The pylons really don’t look large enough to support the warp nacelles. Maybe it’s just the camera angles, but the laws of physics still apply, even in space where no one can hear your warp core breaching.
But these things don’t really matter. I’m very impressed with JJ Abrams (Cloverfield was brilliant, and LOST is, well…I’ll let you know what I think if they ever discover some semblance of a plotline), and I hope he’s really managed to catch the vision of the optimistic future that Star Trek portrayed.
So who needs midnight tickets?
