To boldly go

BoomKat and I finally saw Star Trek last night, after several weeks of planning and rescheduling, and we loved it! Growing up, I was enough into the Star Trek mythology that I could catch some winks and nods to the original series here and there. The movie was much more lighthearted than I expected, in a very refreshing way that hearkened back to the '70s television show.

And knowing that JJ Abrams was at the helm of the movie, it also has clear antecedents in LOST and in Alias, which was kinda cool. I can't wait for the next one!
