Off to Vegas!

I was able to download the Star Trek trailer, but considering it weighs in at 160 mB, there's no easy way to me to host the high definition version. You'll have to view it at Apple, or the official site.

And with that, I'm off! Have a good week!

Hi-Def Star Trek Trailer

Can be found at the Apple website, so go ahead. Go there and watch it! I'll wait right here. Trailer 2 is the one to choose...

Hey there, you're back? Great!

How fan-FREAKING-tastic was that!!!??

I love the new transporter effect! And the Enterprise's shiny corridors! The ship itself, I'm not so sure about... viewed from the front it's good, but it's the profile I have a problem with. We didn't really get to see more of the ship (other than the forward view). Based on what we could see of the USS Kelvin, Federation phasers may be red. The bridge looks great, as do the graphic displays. I also really like the uniforms! And hearing the familiar red alert klaxon!!

I think it's going to be a very popular movie in 2009!

New Enterprise!

I not sure what to say... but the story is from a credible source. In 5 days we'll see more of it in the new trailer, so I'll reserve judgement until then.

The Secret's Out!

In ten days I will be on a plane heading to Las Vegas!

As part of the birthday celebrations for my friend Liz, a group of us are heading down to Vegas from the 19th to the 22nd! Whooo-hooo to slots, paralyzers, and a great time!

Poll Results!

The last poll asked who was your favorite first officer and the results are in!

First up, with a whopping 75 percent of the popular vote, is Mr. Spock!
I figured Mr. Spock would be the most popular, but didn't realize how many old school Trekkies there are!

Coming in second with 20 percent of the vote was The Next Generation's William T. Riker.
I thought Commander Riker would place where he did. He's a popular, fun character, who embodied a lot of what James Kirk did for the original series.

Next up with the remaining five percent of the vote was Kira Nerys, first officer of Deep Space Nine.At first I thought of Kira as an Ensign Ro knockoff, but fortunately she developed her own personality (and hairstyle) over the years. I think she really came into her own during Deep Space Nine's seventh season.

Which leaves Commander Chakotay and T'Pol, who garnered no votes at all.

Chakotay was never my favorite on Voyager, and I think most people see him in the same light.Unfortunate, but considering Robert Beltran has made comments dissing Voyager and his role in the show, he places where he deserves to be.

T'Pol on the other hand, I really wanted to like when Enterprise started, but in the first two seasons her character walked around as if she had a very large stick up her butt!
By the time the third and fourth seasons aired, writers were getting away from that characterization, but it was too little, too late. The damage had been done.

Thanks to everyone for your votes and look for a new poll coming soon!
