Guess what, since I hit a follower milestone this week, why not make this a giveaway. If you’re following this blog and like or reblog this post (both count) until tomorrow, 25th May, 4 pm GMT, you’ve a got a chance of winning one shirt or one zipped hoodie. I’ll be giving away one of each, so there will be two winners. I will draw two random numbers, using a generator, and those two likers / rebloggers will win. First number I draw gets the hoodie, the other one the shirt. Please remember to have your askbox open so I can contact you in case you win. Also, I need to contact you fast, so I can order this for you before the time’s up, so be ready by the time this giveaway ends ;)
Good advice in any century.

You are officially spoiled if you read below, NO COMPLAINTS!
Up front I will say I enjoyed this latest Star Trek movie a lot. It was super noisy, but enjoyable, beautifully executed, and I particularly like some of the secondary characters, Spock was excellent, etc etc. I just want to share an…
Totally valid concern, though I would point out that:
A)There are several women sitting around that roundtable, including a black female captain and a Vulcan female captain
B)Marcus did not strike me as a damsel in distress (her underwear scene was stupid and gratuitous, I don’t know what JJ was thinking there) as she was portrayed as a competent scientist who is the one that figures out what the torpedoes actually are and saves Bones’ life when she defuses one of them. She is also shown standing up to her father/commanding officer, and condemning his actions
C)I felt Uhura was kicking ass left and right in this movie. She negotiates with the Klingons alone (and is the only one of our heroes that manages to stab one!) and saves Spock from You Know Who when he’s about to get his skull kicked in. I thought she was on equal footing with Kirk & Spock.
D)It’s worth noting that the Enterprise bridge was full of women, including that badass Deltan officer that takes over for Chekhov when he is transferred to Engineering
E)That being said, I would like to see more prominent female roles in Star Trek 3
F)Wouldn’t it have been interesting if Admiral Marcus had been a woman? I think you easily could have cast Marcus as a woman without a single script rewrite

He said Star Trek is too “philosophical”? Screw that noise.
I don’t know when this interview happened but I AM SAD AND ANGRY NOW
The philosophies in Star Trek are kinda part of the actual setting. If you don’t get that, why are you allowed to make Star Trek movies.
Sigh. The whole point of Star Trek is that it’s philosophical. If you don’t want philosophical Science Fiction, there’s plenty of that for you to enjoy, but Star Trek is philosophical. Philosophy is part of Star Trek’s DNA, and if you’re given the captain’s chair, you’d better damn well respect that.

While I don’t blame people for not wanting to watch the new movie, this quote is taken seriously out of context.
He goes on to say that as an adult he appreciates the philosophical stuff in Star Trek so much more, and the kids who did like Star Trek were smarter than he was.
