“Fans decry new Star Trek movie as fun, watchable…”


Trekkies Bash New Star Trek Film As ‘Fun, Watchable’

  • How dare you make a movie that *everyone* can enjoy?! Don’t you know that this material is only accessible to an elite, Klingon-speaking minority?

    I LOVE the Onion! Perfect skewer of Trekkiedia (a nation that I live on the outskirts of, since I do know what Pon Farr is) and the ‘fanboy’ mentality. Rock ONN.

    Funny, but disingenuous. TOS Trek has always been about good-natured action. Heck, everyone on Earth besides me HATES ST:TMP because it’s slow and had big ideas. It was the spin-offs that got preachy.

    “Gene Roddenberry was some hack who invented Star Trek back in the 40’s or something.” Nice *lol*

    You know, in that still it really looks like Spock is trying his best not to laugh out loud.

    “Really, Mr. Spock? Why, I have a very great friend on the Federation Council named Biggus Dickus.”

    I hate that young Kirk’s all black look. Put on you yellow overshirt, the all black look went out in the 1990s (right before World War 111).

    I must’ve missed about 108 of those World Wars.
