Star Trek is not dead Jim

I have been watching Star Trek since I was a wee lad. I have always been a fan but never crossed the line of being obsessed with it. OH I have had many friends that have donned the uniform, did the fan club thing and the like but I never took that route. (I have other vices) Suffice to say after a long list of disappointed Star Trek Movies and spin-offs (I did like STTNG but it did get old after a while) I was hesitant to go see the new movie. I mean the last one which came out in 2002 was well not good.

Back to basics with the original characters was a good idea. After watching years of Picard pontificating about the nobility of man I just wanted to see someone punch someone in the face. Briefly so not to spoil anything, the story begins before our intrepid crew ever sets foot on the Enterprise. Now for those who crave a little bit of action, you won’t be disappointed from the very opening until the end there is quite a bit of it. I will say that only the Wrath of Khan is its equal in action and the new Star Trek movie has taken the place as my favorite. For those who are shocked that people might actually to go Star Trek to see action and its wasn’t Gene Roddenberry’s vision I say poppy cock. The man wrote Kirk after Horatio Hornblower for heaven’s sake. If you don’t know who Horatio Hornblower is, shame on you and head to your local library.( one of my favorite series of books)

Now be aware it stomps hard on holy Star Trek canon so if you cannot take that go see Night at the Museum but meh that’s one of the reasons why people didn’t go to the franchise movies anymore. You needed to know so much background that it was hard to someone walking off the street to just sit and watch. Another movie made in that fashion would not have been made, trust me on this, no one would have touched it with a 10 foot pole.

This rebirth or reboot of the story line is an excellent way to get a whole new generation of people into the story. Ultimately it’s about the crew, their friendship and how they face the dangers of outer space. Enjoy the show it’s a good story and isn’t what’s this is all about. Star Trek is far from being dead.
