would be oddly self-serving

hey i saw the star-trek movie

it was good, i liked it, but there were some issues


good:

1. uhura
   
2. spock
   
3. uhura/spock
   
4. pretty lights/cgi/etc
   
5. nimoy
   
6. sulu (FENCING) (ALSO MAYBE HE HAD THE HANDBRAKE ON)
   
7. chekov and scotty (and scotty's alien buddy)
   

bad/questionable:

1. i hate jj abrams with the fire of a thousand suns, and this movie did nothing to change that
   
2. MINISKIRTS? REALLY? MINISKIRTS?
   
3. TIME TRAVEL? AGAIN?
   
4. probably failed the Bechdel Test
   
5. after pwning at languages and the dude who had her job before, uhura becomes nothing but an aside after the action starts
   

now if you'll excuse me, i have to go vote, because it's compulsory here.

The miniskirts were fine of themselves. But all women? Really? Flying into battle? That hardly seems practical.
