Star Trek....

Way back when Alien premiered, a group of us went to see it. Between cosplay and roleplaying gaming, I'd portrayed several space explorers by then, and described my experience as trying to watch a dumb horror movie with three starship captains in my head making wry comments. This time, they were laughing themselves silly...

Yes, I finally got around to seeing Star Trek. The plot performs contortions that would strain a bellydancing python, and logic is honored almost entirely in the breech, but for all that I rather enjoyed it. As Vicky pointed out, the idea is to observe our old favorite characters being young and silly.

As the old saying goes, belief must be not so much suspended as hanged, drawn and quartered... but it's still amusing if you don't take it seriously.
