Oh, and Tracey -- the last Trek movie I saw first-run was "Wrath of Khan". Everything since was on video or cable.
As for my resistance to see this one... it's my Little Voice talking. Despite every persuasive argument I've had handed to me, it still says, "No." And I trust it. Last time I ignored the Voice, I missed out on a weekend with a beautiful woman who was VERY interested in me. I don't do stupid twice. ---------[ Received Mail Content ]---------- Subject : [scifinoir2] Martin---I'm Coming For you!!!

I thought of your refusal to even see it, several times throughout the movie, and I just shook my head. It's not that I did not think that some plot decisions would not enrage you. I knew that they would. I have never seen a reboot, good or bad that has not done so. It comes with the territory. It's that is really a good Trek film and you, the Trekker/Trekkie who probably needs to see it the most, won't because you are resistant to change. Also, except for First Contact, the last few trek films were bad with all sorts of continuity issues. Why did you not refuse to see them? What is the principle or point you are making? I've never known you to be so rigid in the past. I could see if that guy who did Fantastic Four was at the helm, but even then, I bet you would see it on video. So what is it about this one that has you so close minded? Are you going to watch the series when it premiers or are you going to boycott that as well? OK.
