Getting Geekier

All my life, ive looked down on sci fi movies. I always thought they were unreal, complicated and extremely boring. Slowly with time ive developped a different approach with films I watch and with a more mature eye I started appreciating deeper and more diversified features. This week end I saw the last Star Trek movie and I fucking loved it!

 

I always hated star trek as a kid because it was a stupid show my loser uncle would watch while I wanted to pop in my bugs bunny tapes when I was at my grandma's. What made me want to watch it this time is because an actor I really like, Zachary Qinto, was in it. For those of you who wouldnt know he plays Spok. One thing that always amazed me about star trek even tho I hated it was how NEAT the Vulcans eyebrows are. I mean, it has to be all makeuped and shit, they cant shave the actors brows just for the filming. Then they would look like idiots for weeks growing them back. I just cant believe how well theyve done that small thing.

 

Spok is one of the most obvious characters you first think off when someone says star trek because leonard nemoy was just so great at his role and I thought qinto did a pretty good job. I have no idea what are the general thoughts from the public on that matter because I havent seen any reviews. Im curious to know if the die hard fans like this new spok and what differences they see with the original. Anyway, Nemoy was in this movie as well, playing spok from the future and he was awesome, as always. Im really drawned to the ''no emotions showing'' thing although you can always understand how hes feeling. Its a complicated concept and its done so well, its mind bottling.

 

Also, I fell off my couch when I realised that both Kal Penn and John Cho are casted in this last star trek movie. How the fuck did Harold and Kumar, 2 burger chasing potheads, score this gig? The only logic explanation I can come with is that they partied with the right people.

 

At this point im becoming a trekkie or trekker, wich ever is the proper, non derogatory term to use.. and I wanna watch all the first movies.
