Give It A Rest. Please.
21 Apr 2009 22:35The publicity build-up for the Star Trek movie has begun, and so has the usual tide of sorry bleating from the trollers, who prove once again that there are two groups of people in the universe - those with imagination, and those without. Sorry, but you're not going to get fans all riled up with the same oh-so-tired "jokes" about "scraping off the (sic) Cling-Ons", "getting beamed up *snigger* by Scotty", "we come in peace - shoot to kill" (that was funny once, when The Firm did "Star Trekking", which even fans find funny)...
Of course it's not bloody real - that is the whole damn point. If you can't get that, just stick with the "soccer", and Top Gear - you don't hear sci-fi criticising "normal people" for watching the snooker for days on end, or obsessing about soaps or "reality shows". I think most of us have had our fill of the real world by now - if not, you probably will have by this time tomorrow, and Gordistair cut their own throats with the 2009 Budget.
I know what I like, and no-one - repeat no-one - can tell me my personal preferences are "wrong", unless they break the law (and they don't, I'll tell you that for free). Now excuse me while I tune out the bleating...
To the rest, I say this: See ya on May 8th, people. Oh, and anyone who abandoned Enterprise like it was made of radioactive anthrax should go and watch Season 3. You may be pleasantly surprised.
