Star Trek: Countdown

[Dragon Ninja]

Star Trek: Countdown is a four-issue comic book series published by IDW Publishing and serves as the prequel to the new Star Trek coming out on May 8th. It follows the characters of Spock and the Romulan Nero (the bad guy from the new movie) during the year 2387, detailing the events that cause them to travel to the 23rd century. The story not only serves as a lead up to the film, but as well as a continuation of the Star Trek: The Next Generation franchise.

TO BE CONTINUED.... on screen in the new Star Trek movie.

I must say, I am excited about the movie. I am not much of a Star Trek fan, only watching it from time to time. I was really into Voyager back when I was 10 though. But this movie looks like it is going to be fantastic.
Even my friend who dislikes Star Trek is looking forward to the movie.

Or better yet, use the Jedi Mind Trick.

I don't think that works in the Star Trek Universe.

Neither does J.J. Abrahms.

If any Trekkies try to cause some trouble, just give them the Vulcan Neck Pinch. Sure, it may not actually work, but they'll go along with it just to convince themselves it does. Or pull out a lightsaber and insist you deflect all the phaser blasts.

Ah, Star Trek vs Star Wars. Their battle will never cease.

But at any rate, I'm going to see the movie. I'll withhold all judgements on how it may turn out until I've actually seen it, but once I have, you can expect I'll have a review of it written soon.

Watching it Thursday night.  Glad they're having more (earlier) shows than just at midnight (12:01am.)  :)

My theater already showed it during a GM conference last week, and I was able to watch a few minutes of it (like, the bar fight where Kirk gets his @$$ kicked..)

[kollunz]

ohhhh snap I got into a free screening in IMAX last night! it was awesome...

Doubt it.

[Eliteslayer]

Well, I just saw the movie. It was incredible. I, too, held my doubts as to whether or not it would be good or just an explosion-filled excuse with the Star Trek name, but it was made of plenty of epic win.
