“Star Trek ‘09” 10th Anniversary

[Captain Dunsel]

Wow—I just realized that the first “Star Trek” reboot film passed the 10 year mark, this summer.

No matter how you feel about those three films, you have to admit, this is one hell of a teaser:

Meh.

Time flys even when you are not having fun....

I know...I have to admit it was but the beginning of where things are now.

10th anniversary of Star Trek for people who don't like Star Trek...

I wonder how many Trekkies went bonkers seeing the ship being built on earth! And not in shipyards in space!

*raises hand* And in Riverside, Iowa, rather than San Francisco. I was so into that teaser up until I saw the warp engines. The saucers were built in landside graving docks, so the first part of the construction montage was fine with me. But the stardrive section was built in space, the saucer then boosting up to be mated to it. As robust as they'd have to build that ship to hold itself and its incredibly massive engines up under Earth gravity... Well, I was about to say why bother when the ship is never supposed to land, but then in the very next movie it's parked in an ocean, so... *sigh*
