Star Trek

[€uroMeinke]

I thought it was fun. Didn't "love it" - but sci-fi films just haven't been the same for me since I came across magical realism and gave up the need to have everything explained to me.

I didn't hate it either, though I found myself wondering why everyone's motivation come from some Freudian situation of reacting to the death of a parent. Considering the amount of people with dead parents in the world it's a wonder why we aren't all star ship captains or evil villains.

Still, I was happy for the ejection of cannon (though annoyed a bit that they had to explain that too) one of the reason's I've avoided all the other interations of Star Trek was that I just couldn't keep up with the evolving mythology - just tell me a fun story in 50 minutes of less that didn't requirement to remember all the details of every past episode. (hmmm come to think of it, that's why I've avoided, Lost, Buffy, X-Files, etc. - damn geeks)

Anyway, I enjoyed it - probably won't see it again, but it was a nice way to spend an afternoon.
