Trek

No, I haven't seen it yet, but a slew of reviews says it actually doesn't suck glass doorknobs so I might get around to doing so.

Don't mind me - I confess I've never seen a Trek film in the theater, which might tell you something about how I feel about the need to see everything made in the name of The Franchise. In comparison, the only Star Wars films I haven't seen that way are Sith (too disappointed by Phantom Menace and Attack of the Wooden Acting by Hayden Christiansen, I guess) and the utterly repulsive-looking CGI thingie that looked like an especially lame episode of Reboot.

Well, considering how bad the past few Trek movies have been, you were right to proceed with cuation.

Yeah. I also belong to that small (or maybe *not*) group of fen who isn't real happy with Trekkies. AFAIK, they still refuse to acknowledge much of anything SF outside of The Franchise, and that makes them pretty much useless since most of the SF I peruse is...dare I say it?...*written*. Plus, I used to be involved in _Doctor Who_ fandom eons ago, and although some of them were tightly wound, they weren't even *close* to some of the more far-gone Trekkies in that regard.
