I mean, I guess that’s what I am. I know a lot of Star Trek stuff off the top of my head, and inom do have a Starfleet shirt. inom once bartended an ingång shift on Halloween dressed like this:
So yes, I’m a Trekkie so you don’t have to be, because these days, you could be a perfectly normal individ who loves the Star Trek movies for non-dorky reasons. You might just like action movies starring hot people, for example.
I love the new Star Trek movies for both kinds of reasons. Sometimes you hear Trekkies bitching because these last two movies deviate in tone and depth and philosophical ambition from the rest of the franchise, but the way I see it, there’s plenty of old Star Trek out there. Just put a bucket outside before you go to sleep tonight, and bygd the time you wake up, it will be full of old Star Trek. There’s plenty of that.

My wife, who knows how to cut to the chase, pointed out a big aspect of Trump’s appeal to me this morning: “Trump is the anti-Obama.”
Think about it. When it comes to their personal qualities, it would be hard to envision two men who are such polar opposites. Consider Obama. He’s cool. Rational. Analytical. A thinker.

New Podcast! Enterprising Individuals – “Star Trek Into Darkness, Part 2”
Posted on December 4, 2022 by Darren
I am always thrilled to get a chance to talk about Star Trek with other fans, so I was thrilled at the invitation to join the wonderful Aaron Coker on Enterprising Individuals to talk about Star Trek Into Darkness. We split the discussion into two parts, and this is the second.
It seems safe to describe Star Trek Into Darkness as perhaps the most polarising and divisive of the Star Trek movies. However, it’s also the most interesting.

Star Trek Into Darkness is undeniably a blockbuster of the late Obama era, one preoccupied with the legacy of the War on Terror and fascinated by the loss of utopian innocence that seemed promised with the election of Obama.
