MOVIE PREVIEW

Let me just say that I’m far from being a trekkie, probably the farthest away, actually, lol, but I am, & I’m not afraid to say so, absolutely geeked up about seeing the new incarnation of Star Trek. For all of you who don’t yet know, the storyline is follwing a new mythology, so you don’t, I repeat, DON’T have to be a trekkie to enjoy it. And for all of the trekkies out there, harden not your heart, & fret not, because I’m sure there will be plenty of nostalgia mixed in with the new plotlines. Read the preview below for an overview of what you can expecgt. Make sure you check this flick out. And no the studio behind this movie is not paying me, though soon I will be paid for these posts. But that’s a pony of a different hue.
