Star Trek

[Moristans]

The only really cheesy bit in the movie was when Sulu brought out a sword, amplified slightly by the fact that someone else actually also had a sword to fight him with. Why does anyone have a sword? That was just contrived. Stop that.

The only real cheesy part? Contrived?

The whole movie was cheesy and contrived. That's what made it fun. Pick a favorite defining characteristic of any main TOS players and they fit it into the movie. Sometimes, like Sulu's sword fetish, they had to wedge it in sideways, but those moments made the movie.

Why was there a hot green chick at Starfleet Academy? Why were Vulcan kids picking on Spock?

My favorite cheesy moment that was just plain over the top contrived to show us what a rebel Kirk is in this new timeline? Young Kirk stealing stepdad's 60's Corvette, being chased by a 23rd cetury cop on a 23rd century motorcycle.

Ughh. Stop that.

The rest, yup. Star Trek is back and I couldn't be happier.
