Posted by I’ve mostly liked the last couple Star Wars movies that have come out, I think I’ll always prefer the originals, but compared to the 3 movies that came out in the early 2000’s this new set of movies has been a step up.
I like what he’s done with the new Trek movies – they aren’t totally in the same tone and message that the Star Trek tv series, so I understand why some people don’t like them – but they are fun and gives me a bit more of the Trek that I crave.
