I wasn’t around to pen the review for J.J. Abrams first journey into the stars, but I was definitely impressed. I grew up watching Next Generation with Profex Sr. and hearing stories about the original from my uncle, but never considered myself a Trekky. Any “space journey” fiction intrigued me as a kid (hence my love for Ender’s Game) and the Star Trek lore always intrigued me, just never as much as Star Wars.
The rekindling of the franchise in 2009 was an opportunity for a fresh start. These modern takes were made for people much like myself: Curious, but not entirely informed. Most times, as a fanboy, I condemn the liberties taken when writers get a hold of these stories that we hold near and dear. It took a different perspective for me to truly understand, though.
Its definitely true that some writers get a little wild with additions/subtractions to existing material, but I think the Trek movie got it write. With Into Darkness bringing one of the most infamous Trek villains to the screen, will the energy built by the first film carry over, progress, or fizzle out?

Its always trouble when you’re bringing a true classic from one medium to another. Expectations and emotions will be high, fans chomping at the bit for any blemishes. Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge!, Romeo + Juliet), known for his grandiose directing, was tasked with bringing F. Scott Fitzgerald’s infamous novel to the silver screen. With Leonardo DiCaprio (Django Unchained, Inception) in the leading role, does it live up to the hype? Of course not, but its their own fault.

“The bottom line is that the chances of cohesion from a sampler like this happening with other rappers (let alone himself) are slim to none… but like I said before, his name’s Chance for a reason.”
