Ok first things first......... I liked the new Star Trek Movie (2009). OK OK OK I know it may have violated some canon story lines but then again some made sense. I mean how can you keep the Trek story update when the author is already dead. Sad but well as a trekkie (of sorts- I love the Voyager Series), I too hunger for a new Star Trek, and since Gene Roddenberry is no longer amongst us.... how the heck are we gonna get new Treks?
When I first saw the trailers of the new Star Trek movie.., I thought maybe its gonna be a prequel; while i was a bit apprehensive of another prequel since there have been many movie prequels already, I thought "WHY NOT STAR TREK?". It would be nice to know how everything began and saw it on the big screen rather than just reading about it from another trekkie fan.
Its nice to know that its a different timelime... well as for the current Trek, technically its a whole new time line now. Its refreshing but i kindah have some problems with it.
So I am guessing SPACE is not the final frontier now but rather...... its TIME.
The creators of this movie obviously wanted to create a whole new time line, as my friend so lovely put it "its a great way to keep the franchise alive".
Overall I am happy how the movie went, the details was superb BUT the Romulans? Why where the Romulans bald?
Things I liked about the movie??? Hmmm a lot..... The detail - the Starships/technology where apt for the "star date". The detail of the effects me loved it. The STUNTS - well not that flashy but I didnt see much CGI corruption - no offense to other movies but whats the use of STUNTS if its all CGI? or maybe my eyes were just fooled by the editing :D
DOCTOR McCoy (portrayed by Karl Urban) - OMG WHAT A HUNK!!! ME SO LOVE!!!!!!! The rest where cute.... sure Chris Pine was hot as always but argh McCoy with his grrrrr he was just sexy.Now things i didnt like about it well... hmmm aside from Winona (no offense i like Winona but i didnt feel like she was the right choice for a Vulcan mother). The new time line and how it will affect the rest of the Star Trek Universe.
With now Vulcan gone, where will Tuvok (character in Voyager-Star Trek), whom has saved Capt Janeway (captain of Voyager) several times, and this captain and her crew are supposedly the ones who fought and defeated the Borg.... does this mean we'll see more of the Borg?
Wait wait wait, I love the Borg too and I know they will never really die, Yes i've seen the new Trek Novel with Capt Janeway becoming the new Borg Queen but.......
Ok am ranting..... hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehhe
Like I said ..... Space is no longer the final frontier - TIME IS THE NEW frontier. weeeeee
OMG I am already excited about the next movie, and the possibility of seeing more of the Borg and possibily Species 8472.... OMG i am so excited.
With this new time line I'm pretty sure theres a huge possibility of new "incursions"... The Bad Lands may no longer exist, Klingon peace treaty.... hmmmmm maybe no more.
Races that should've been extinct may now be revived.
The Saurian Race from the Delta Quadrant may return back to Earth.......
Possibilities are endless.
