  • JJ Abrams to direct Star Wars Episode VII

    It’s dated news, but good news on the Star Wars front none-the-less. (I had this drafted up on January 25th!)

    JJ Abrams will be in charge of the new Star Wars films, which in my opinion means the franchise is in good hands. Abrams has really had a hot directing hand this past few years, and based on the work he did with the Star Trek reboot, Star Wars fans have nothing to worry about.

    How weird is it that Star Wars and Star Trek are both being directed by the same man? These are strange times indeed…but for Sci-Fi fans, the future could not be brighter!

  • Star Trek (2009)

    Intro:

    The latest Star Trek film boldly goes where no one has gone before, and it pays off big time. What is quite possibly one of the most popular Sci-Fi franchises of all time received a series reboot with director J.J. Abrams at the helm. It also is a great way to start off a summer filled with blockbuster releases. Will it set phasers on fun? Let’s find out! =)

    NOTE: I am not a Trekkie; I love Sci-Fi films and know basic Trek facts, but I am no expert on the subject. I am writing this review for those who want to see a movie that is both entertaining and different. (aka the layman’s review)

    I may not be a diehard Trek fan, but I like any great Sci-Fi series, and this looks like it’s gonna be a good one to start off the summer right!

    What do you think?
