Star Trek - Nemesis

[kneeshooter]

Was amusing enough fun.

I'd be forewarned by pax_draconis about how it was very much a re-hash of an earlier film, which I can see, but to me it also had great similarities with John Boorman's Excalibur. Despite being trite and obvious in places it kept me occupied, though I thought in the middle of the film the resolution would be different from the usual "phasers followed by unarmed combat between two main protagonists" - how wrong could I be...

Effects were good, and now we know what is behind the viewscreen on the bridge.

I'll save further fanboy nonsense for another time, and if I stop here I can claim that I'm not a fanboy at all...

Re-hash or no re-hash it was FAB! - but did you see how cute that Shinzon bloke was??? :D :D

Hmmm, didn't really do it for me. But then I've had other men on my mind this morning *cough*.

Plus if I'd wanted "cute chap" I believe Two Towers is still showing.

I liked their insect-chitin like armour though - changing colours under the light were v.pretty.

"other men"? Do tell!

And with reference to the Two Towers - Aragorn or LegoMan Legolas?? Hope it's not Aragorn for two reasons:

1) He's bloody rough and ugly and unwashed
2) All my men friends seem to fancy him instead of Legolas

And, yes to the comment about the suits in Nemesis... all shiny and purple and green, and and and... :D

differing opinions

Eomer was nice :-)

As to "other men" - no ;-p

As to Two Towers - Legolas. Definitely. Aragorn was far to grubby and square-jawed for me.

There were men other than Legolas in TT?

My point exactly.
