Abrams hasn’t had the best of luck lately. A couple of years ago Cloverfield came out to some marginal reviews, and last fall Fringe became a high budget show to avoid if for no other reason than the main character never changes facial expressions, but this summer might bring the mighty Abrams (J.J., not M1) back into the spotlight. Well, Lost’s new season currently not sucking could do the same, but we’re not talking about that right now, are we?

According to Yahoo News, even though it’s against Kahn’s wishes, the new Star Trek movie is actually pretty good.

Fans of the “Star Trek” saga will be delighted to see Capt. Kirk (Chris Pine), Spock (Zachary Quinto), Bones (Karl Urban) and all the others in the early part of their lives as the Starship Enterprise takes its maiden voyage. The film is so much fun, however, that it will draw in moviegoers just looking for a sensational ride. The box office should beam up enormous returns when the film opens on May 7.

So there you have it. Some one you’ve never met liked the movie. I just hope that unlike George Lucas, this re-envisioning of a decades old space film will not feature any Gungans. Also, there had better be Tribbles in some form or fashion or I’m walking out of the theater.
