  • The Ten Commandments is on right now.

    If your kids are around, you should know that there’s a four-letter word in this preview. Still…Hilarious.

  • Heeeeere Trekkie, Trekkie….

    I have the DVD. Two disks. No complaints. This video pretty much summed up the reaction I had. In my head, I mean. (HT – Space: No Uglies) As for the next film, do you remember this post? At the end, I wrote the director a note. Dear J. J. I want another Trek. By…

  • Revenge is Sweet.

    Yesterday I saw Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. I don’t know what the critics have been complaining about or hoping for… Over on Rotten Tomatoes, Revenge has a 21% fresh rating. Again, I can’t help but wonder why. Nothing was diminished. The quality of the cinematography, acting, effects, etc., were identical to that of the…

  • Star Trek – Thoughts

    The image above is not mine. It’s from Futurama. I Googled it myself. Here’s a confession if ever there was one: If I was not a Christian, Star Trek would be my religion. I kid you not. Given the an opportunity to hypothesize, some may cite Buddhism and other faiths. But me? Forget deities that…

  • Star Trek – A Prayer

    This review cracked me up. And quite honestly, I agree with every word. Lord, we thank thee for imbuing Abrams with taste and conscience enough to guarantee that “Star Trek” will once again live long and prosper. May he do the same. LOL. Seriously, though? Now that I’ve seen Star Trek in Abrams’ hands, I…

  • “Are you out of your Vulcan mind?”

    LOL. Not really. That, by the way, is probably the closest I’ll get to swearing on this blog. (I didn’t know it was a previously-used Trek line. In the current movie, Bones says it in such a way that “Vulcan” serves as an excellent stand-in for…Another word.) Now then… One of my roommates took me…

  • If it’s craptastic, I’m gonna sue.

    J.J. Abrams had better not disappoint me. The movie had better be worth it. I’ve been waiting long enough. Why is everything in this post sounding like a demand? Because for years I’ve done without cool fresh Start Trek content. If I think this movie is sub par, the whole world’s gonna know.

  • False Avatar

    …And to think sometimes I wonder why directors cast Chinese people to play Koreans, and vice versa… Right now there are bigger fish to fry. *cue Valley Girl accent* So I was just looking at Racialicious, and like, this series called Avatar: The Last Airbender is being made into, like, a live-action film.  The characters…

  • Thank You For Smoking – The Movie

    What a sweet surprise! TYFS is a well-made film with a killer cast. The writing was absolutely delicious. Somehow I have the feeling it was a hoot to make. I highly recommend TYFS. It takes on this era’s penchant for legitimizing BS and is hella smart. Blah blah blah plot summary. Go read that here.…
