Trek Talk: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS TEASER TRAILER!!!

By
Holy shit! Have you seen the greatest thing since sliced bread the glory of the new Star Trek film Teaser Trailer. The Star Trek film that daringly uses Sar Trek as a verb STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS. I can not wait to STAR TREK INTO a DARK movie theatre and see the awesome-NESS, projected in the real full screen mode before watching the Hobbit.  I love Star Trek have seen every episode of every series. Was absolutley enthralled by the last J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie which has put Chris Pine on my list of the only dude I'd go gay for, lol. Cumberbatch has some big shoes to fill stepping into the villain role, Eric Bana was intense and had some fantastic line deliveries. I think I'm going to have to catch up on Cumberbatch's Sherlock show to hold me over.

Interestingly enough, we've only seen "Earth" in Captain Kirk's era once and only once before the movies: in a Talosian illusion in the Menagerie (only two-parter from the original series), where we saw the Mojave desert, which is now green.

The notion the Enterprise can go underwater makes for a great visual but makes no goddamn sense...which is what I'd say about a lot of the Orci/Abrams take.

Reminds me of a bit from Futurama:

"We're at 20 atmospheres of pressure!"

"How many atmospheres can the Planet Express ship take?"

"Well, it's a spaceship. So somewhere between 0 and 1."

If the bad guy turns out to be Khan - the most banal choice imaginable - there is no end to how disappointed I'll be. Lots of this movie will be based on mining visual imagery from Trek's past.

"Hey, remember this, you fat fuck fanboys?"

Who is the bad guy? We know it's someone from Trek, so here are my Vegas style odds:

Odds:

Khan: 2 to 3
Gary Mitchell: 5 to 1
Garth of Izar: 20 to 1
Finnegan: 10 to 1
The parasite aliens from the TNG episode "Conspiracy:" 500 to 1

D-Rock's Top 21 Albums of '21

Photo by me at Shoreline Amphitheatre in California at a concert featuring Korn & Staind 2021 may not have been an especially good year in other ways but it was most certainly an amazing year for music. Not only did live music return (which I have complex but mostly joyful and grateful feelings about) but dozens upon dozens of fantastic albums were released this year. So I thought it only fitting to celebrate the year in music with this list of my top albums of 2021. Bearing in mind that rankings are always a little complex and these things are constantly shifting (my top three are honestly pretty much interchangeable based on my mood) blah blah blah all art is subjective, etc....enjoy my top 21 albums of 2021!

#VundaHalloweenAthon Day 29: "I Know What You Did in the 90's"

Welcome to Day 29 of our #VundaHalloweenAthon  The 29th theme of the month is  "I Know What You Did in the 90's."  Bust out the flannel because today we're watching a movie from the 1990's (or the 1890's I guess but that's probably not as fun). We enjoyed our 80's day today is equally as special because we were alive for this whole decade. Here are a few recommendations from our childhood, taken from our own watchlists for today... Group Pick: Blair Witch Project (1999) directed by Eduardo Sanches, and Daniel Myrick is a once in a century type of horror movie and it ended the 90's and kicked off the last 20 years of horror. This film has been emulated by many but still remains a one of a kind original. What better way to celebrate spooky season by getting lost in the woods with this classic film.  D-Rock: - I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) directed by Jim Gillespie - 1h 41m - Amazon Prime, Peacock - The People Under the Stairs (1991) direc
