I'm a huge star trek fan, I mean who isn't. A story that proposes some day we'll live in a super advanced society that promotes exploration of space and works based on people's qualities as individuals beyond their outer appearance, not a bad way to go...
We're far from that reality as is evident by the rampant retardation in the news and endless friction between races in this world.
People are babies man, gotta say. I'm not trying to say I'm mr. badass, hell no. But I go to work and it's like I'm in kindergarten all over again. Grown men and women acting like "ow he hurt my wittle feelings" all day. Serious? You're done being a kid, time to accept life sucks some times if you didn't know that already... Worst thing about going to work is tolerating the childishness some grown ass people put on at times.
But I really don't give a shit. I just count down the hours till I gotta get out of there and that's all.
I don't live and breathe this fucking job.
Nobody should. It's a means to an ends. Unfortunately nobody's free in this world, gotta work some shitty job you hate...
So they're making star trek 3 without JJ Abrams. I'm over the moon about that. He sucks ass at making star trek films. They're insultingly stupid, under my estimations. I'm not a super duper smart person or none of that but even I have to say the movies are too LCD for my tastes. I've sat and read novels, I've studied complexities of liturature, and THAT'S the best you can come up with for a star trek movie? A lense flare action fest?
Stupid. Now he's appropriately making star wars movies instead of making star wars movies using star trek characters as an excuse to make star wars movies. Good for him, really I couldn't imagine a better person to helm a new star wars movie even if it wasn't including the original cast.
This is going to blow up for Disney, it really is. They made the wisest investement EVER in the history of investments. You wait and see. these new star wars movies are going to explode to the point where they'll prettymuch bust a huge nut all over everyone's face at the theaters. Only issue is that they won't make a damn inch of sense. Yeah it'll be cool as all hell to explore the star wars universe again, but there really is no more story to tell, so what's the point of these new movies. I dunno...
They'll figure something out but I know deep down that it won't really feel natural, as if it was meant to exist. It's like superman Returns is a kind of alternate universe superman movie. You have to look at star wars now kinda in the same vein. The prequels exist and happpened but maybe in a parallel universe. I hope JJ actually mentions parallel universes in the new movies to kinda hint that the prequels can be taken as alternate universe material, not legit prequels...
I'd love that. I mean I've been around the block with bad sequels. Lord knows why hollywood green lights a million dollar sequel that has nothing to do with the original movies, but they do it all the time. From batman forever to batman and robin to the superman sequels etc. They some how smoked enough weed to get to the point where they thought that a sequel that doesn't have SHIT to do with the orginal story would be the best idea. Now we're in that same boat with star wars. Lucas bit off waaaaaaaaaaaay more than he could chew, didn't want to admit he's not good enough to handle everything, and decided to deliberately make horrible star wars movies in front of all of us like an asshole.
And he did, unabashedly and steadfastly, relentlessly, horribly made whatever shit came out his ass and put it on screen.
Sadly a whole generation of kids will see those prequels as legit star wars, they'll go their goddamn grave believing those movies are true honest good star wars films that deserve to be held up alongside the original classics.
I don't know. I'm getting long in the tooth here. I have to admit. I'm feeling older and not feeling like I should give a damn about whether kids will look at the prequels as shit in the future. I honestly should be slamming my dick into a girl's ass hole deep and hard and not giving a shit about star wars anymore truth be told. If things in life went the RIGHT way... I'd be in that position.
We'll goddamn see won't we. I'm just like lost right now. I had no idea I'd be hanging out all my teen years watching the star wars prequels and basically addicted to those movies then, here I am I'm 29 fucking years old now, and they're pushing forward with new star wars movies and all I can think is that I have no choice, I have to reverse back in time and voraciously hunt down star wars news like a psycho...
Anyway on to the point of this post. Really I was thinking that now that Star trek is in the hands of someone else, perhaps it'll finally be LIKE a star trek film. Sad to say I'm not a fan of JJ's style, totally wrong for a star trek film. I mean, shit. It's star trek, it's supposed to put kids to sleep, it's so boring and high minded. It's supposed to cater to the intellectual set. It's supposed to be above star wars in terms of complexity of story and plot. How the fuck can the animated series be more thought provoking and smart than the movies they made. I have more fun watching the cartoon than watching the staright forward mustache twirling villain antics they plopped on screen twice now. Not saying Justin Lin is some super genius and will create some amazing labyrinthine star trek film, but perhaps he'll actually bring trek back to its roots in this one, SHIT.
