Star Trek - Page 13

Yeah, not arguing here either. I like the revelations about people's taste, and what might be behind it.

mousepod, I've found on a number of occassions that I didn't like "Movie X" ... but saw it again anyway, and once aware of what IT was trying to do rather than what I wanted it to, gained a strong appreciation for "Movie X" that I originally hated.

I'm not saying this is what happened to you at all ... but your description of expecting the Time Alteration gimmick to follow the standard pattern and sorta waiting for that to happen, and being disappointed when it didn't ... well that kinda reminds me of when I don't like a movie until see it again under its own terms instead of mine.

Hmm, I guess I find different meaning for the term argument. More like presenting a case, different sides - not quite fighting. Arguing for me, while not fighting, can become tiresome once the point's been made. 100+ posts later, and I feel beaten about by the same points on both sides.

Then again, I keep reading. I must be a glutton for punishment.

Yeah, I'm getting near the done point. I think I've said all I can muster about Star Trek.

Let's see, 42% of the posts in this thread are mine.

Maybe Alex and I should take this to email or text message or something.

I could talk about Chris Pine some more.

Yes, please do talk about him. He's incredibly handsome.

The Transformers thread was 143 posts long. Certainly Star Trek is deserving of more talk than that piece of pucky.

And I just reread that thread and see that blueerica made much the same comment about the pointlessness of the endless discussion (though she's the one who started the thread even before the movie started).

Reality loops. I am Alex'. Alex Prime no longer exists.

I thought "Alex' " was "Alex Prime".
