This one disturbs me more than the rest combined.
that's what happens when you market to 12-year-old girls and their ability to vote
Well not mostly stupid just exactly half. So exactly in fact that when I change my mind on
on something the whole world consensus changes since I am that one guy whose
opinion makes all the difference in the world. Think of a "stupid" curve like an upside
down bell curve, a few at the extremes with a sharp, precipitous slope into mediocrity
on both sides.
I dunno, I liked a lot of really, REALLY bad stuff when I was 16, too. Youth is stupidity...realizing that (and that you don't have all the answers) is sign number one that you just might be growing up. 8)

I caught a bit of the Critics Choice Awards. Apparently they asked the 'people', via the interwebs, to select the best movie franchise of all time.
The choices included Star Trek, Batman, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, Toy Story, Spider Man, Lord of the Rings, etc.
Can anyone guess the winner? Yep, the Twilight abominations. The people have proven themselves to be stupid once again.
I ride a fast bus to vomit city. "Tee Hee? Like, you know the very best most awesome ever!!! Tee Hee! Like I told
Tracey? and she goes "like it is so awesome dude?" Tee Hee. and I go ?"Yeah? Riiiiight!"

He does that sometimes. We just sit him in a corner and wait for the magic mushrooms to wear off.

I suspect that only proves the "people" being polled are under the age of 16...and mostly female.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess he's perhaps describing a sample of dialogue he's exposed to on a daily basis.
That Martok he smart. That is a sample of the last 12 year old girl dialogue i heard.
That's who votes. I spend some time with my 12 year old niece? And she goes? Like that? TeeHee?

theres only one good Star Trek movie. its like that slighty off girl you keep seeing at the club and sleeping with but you dont know why because you really dont dig her but she does things you like. thats a Star Trek movie.
If you mean that she is really retarded you are right. That first Star Trek movie was really retarded.
Like so retarded it would be criminal to bone her. Or even think about it. Gahhhh!

We've got some guys around here who would prefer not to use "retarded" in that context. Thanks. :)

Yeah, please be careful about using that word Dan. It's a hurtful term for some of the guys here.

Here's my breakdown of the 10 Star Trek films:
2 were great (
Wrath of Khan and
First Contact)
1 was good (
The Undiscovered Country)
1 was decent (
The Voyage Home)
1 was tolerable/okay (
The Search for Spock)
2 were "meh" (
Generations and
Insurrection)
1 was "bad, but still fun to watch because it's easy to mock MST3K-style" (
The Final Frontier)
2 were downright terrible, and with no redeeming value whatsoever (
The Motion Picture and
Nemesis).
Gods, I still wish
Nemesis had never happened! Talk about the Star Trek movies ending on a pathetic whimper...

Exactly. There are only the ten Star Trek movies that I mentioned.
All others are fakes, substitutes, or STINO.

STINO -> LOL
I liked the reboot.

Yes, I said that a little tongue-in-cheek, but honestly, that's my take on it: It's a shallow, mindless action-adventure romp that just happens to have "Star Trek" slapped on as the title. Nothing more.
Aside from the character's names and locations, there's nothing actually in that film that truly *feels* like Trek. It has no heart, no soul. Almost everything that made Star Trek the phenomenon that it is, is entirely lacking in Jar-Jar's utterly laughable "film". To call it "Star Trek" is both absurd and a disgrace IMO.

Could not agree more.
