COMMENT(s) DU JOUR
Dumbed Down Star Trek?


I'm no huge fan of the TREK universe but at least it was distinct. Abrams has made it a roller coaster ride. When it's over you take nothing with you but a spinning head and the memory of the whoosh.

If the brand was dead before Abrams got to it, then I object to the desecration of the corpse.
-Deborah
