Star Trek

OH... so I thought that the Blogger outage was supposed to be TONIGHT.. but it's actually on Monday. HAHA... I wrote this blog post and published it like a mad man, but I guess I have more time to write it now. :P

So I went to see Star Trek tonight with Jon.. we went on a date. LOL. Not really a date. We just called it a date for fun since it seems to have become a thing to watch movies in the theater with just the two of us. But anyway, I just have to say that Star Trek was REALLY good. I really enjoyed it. Casting was great. Writing was great. Story was great. Cinematography was great. Special Effects were great. LOVED it.

Um... and I think Chris Pine (who plays Captain Kirk) is HOT!

Despite the weird "head-almost-falling-off thing" going on in this pic, he's SUPER hot!

I also enjoyed Zachary Quinto's Spock. Done well. And he really did look like a younger Leonard Nimoy. I definitely am not a Trekkie, but I did appreciate the series and the old movies. So even though some plot points may have angered the true fans of Star Trek, I was very pleased with the outcome. It was just an awesome, action-packed, funny, summer blockbuster. I think JJ Abrams (director/producer) did a fabulous job of bringing the Star Trek franchise back to life. I sure hope that he will continue to make more Star Treks with this cast!

Well it's time for bed now. I'm waking up in 5 hours to drive out to IKEA because they're giving away Gift Cards ranging from $10-$1000 to the first 1000 customers. WISH ME LUCK!!
