*****ALERT - THIS IS A TOTAL RANT *****
Well, I never thought any of my posts would resort to out and out ranting but this is just awful.
Nothing about the new JJ Abrams butchery of 40 years of a sci-fi icon is worthy of being seen over again. The first ten minutes is pure drivel. Since when did ships that old carry 20 shuttle craft? Since when would now orphaned Jim Kirk be listening to Beastie Boys Sabotage? Angels of Grace save us.
At least they got Vulcan right. Oh wait - what about the IDIC? I thought there was supposed to be a tolerance for things different. THE ONLY thing that was right was the green blood on Spock's lip.
What the hell is a Starfleet installation doing in the middle of Iowa anyway? Thats just preposterous. Ok - THEN Jim Kirk hits on Uhura? This is more than Darth Vader making C-3PO; oh wait - he did. And then Kirk morphs into some Matt Damon "Good Will Hunting" reject? Beyond insanity.
Lets move on to Bones McCoy - Hold old is he anyway? 40? AND REALLY? Medea is Starfleet Commander Komack? Honestly? Lets have Tyler Perry run Starfleet - wait Komack was a WHITE MAN! Anyone see the episode "The Trouble with Tribbles"?
Eric Bana as the Romulan who starts communications with "Hello?" and what the hell is "the red matter"? NO ROMANCE between Uhura and Spock. Just cant fathom that one.
More to come - but man alive -- so far SO BAD.
All this, and Im sober.
