Star Trek 05-08-09

A bit late (by a week) on posting this, but in my defense I had written it once already and then my blasted iPhone deleted it somehow. Anyway…

I had the pleasure of seeing Star Trek on opening night and what a pleasure it was! I was expecting awesome (of course, being the Trekkie that I am), but this movie really blew me away. Not only will Star Trek fans like it (and no, I’m not talking about the die hard ones who will QQ about Vulcan), but the average, everyday joe/too-bad-your-not-a-trekkie-too will love it as well. I saw the regular version opening night and then again the next day on IMAX. If you haven’t already, GO SEE IT! I even went all out and wore my beloved Star Trek t-shirt that Dhare got me at comic-con. Yeah, that’s right…I’m like real geek.

You won’t find a better cast in a better movie all summer. Zachary Quinto as Spock and Chris Pine as Kirk are dead on. What talent, and the rest of the cast? Outstanding!

J.J Abrams is a genius and my new hero. Thumbs up for Star Trek, but not for the mean ticket taker jerk who wouldn’t let me in an hour ahead of time. ♦♦♦♦♦

HQ Wolverine Promo #1

Originally uploaded by X-Men Origins : Wolverine

So, I am leaving in about 15 minutes here to go see “Wolverine”. I’m hoping it’s not going to suck…but if it does at least I’ll only lose $6 (it’s a matinee) since I woke up at the crack of dawn for this. Last night we saw about 20 minutes of the movie due to some luck. Apparently a disgruntled ex-employee of Fox Studios was really pissed and leaked the movie online, haha. It was our good fortune to have a copy in our hands, but as it turned out some of the, uh, movie effects were unfinished. I can’t stand less than perfect quality, so here we are going to the matinee this morning…but can you go wrong with Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds? No.
