Decisions, decisions...

To watch Star Trek or not watch Star Trek? On the plus side - my first geeky love, the thing that drew me into fandom before I knew such a thing existed. Also, Simon Pegg.

On the minus side - my first geeky love. Do I want it spoiled?

OMG! I got to see it a second time last night. (hubby took me!) I was jumping in my seat the entire time. Cause, this time I paid more attention. (until those damn blue eyes came on the screen and I got distracted again. And wow! he really needs to be in black. cause wow! It was like Sheppard-in-black-hotness level. )

Um...where was I??? Oh yes, movie!!!

So, at least you're young enough that there was internet to feed your new addiction. I had to resort to reading books. (Yes, I own something like 300 star trek books.) I remember when my internet was dial up and took 5 minutes to load a page. (I really didn't have the patience for it but I still did. I actually found my first fanfic with ST:Voyager of all things. Helps that I was a voyager fan.) It was on a BBS? system. I forget. It's been a long time. There was a thought here, but I lost it! lol

OH, lifetime trekkie thing. I totally understand that. Been watching Star Trek for as long as I can remember. Knew all the characters, places, ships, dialogue from each episode. Had TV Guide covers. All that. So I understand what you mean by being disappointed.

Go in with an open mind and remember to go with the flow...think of it as a new doodle-pad with familiar tools, but a whole new picture.

(Am trying not to spoil anything so it's hard not to say...this and this was awesome.)

Sorry to hear about the money. I only got to go due to tax refund money. So I feel your pain. Sends virtual hugs. Hope you get to see it soon. I'd love to dissect it with you. In total fangirl squee!

Ah, Voyager was what got me hooked on Sci-fi in general and Star Trek in particular. Mum had to pry me away from the TV! And when I discovered that they showed ToS on Sundays, I was absent from Sunday lunches for six months. Poor Mum...

However, apparently the movie theatre in my city hates geeks. I decided that Star Trek is, after all, more important than food, only to find out that they're not showing it where I live. I might be a tiny little bit disgruntled at the moment.
