KUMAGCOW MOOOOVIE REVIEWS: STAR TREK (The Movie 2009)

Tuesday, June 09, 2009

It was a fast paced fantasy based movie that originated from the original TV series. A connection between the past and the present, time travel and super warp drives, this movie has not failed to impress me. I thought it was going to be a boring one since I was not impressed with the reviews in the US and local papers. I was not a trekkie to begin with but man! I enjoyed each scene that came out of the silverscreen. Not to mention this day was a little special since I dated a long time friend from Canada. Yes, singlehood has its perks but it would not hurt to date every once in a while. Anyway, back to the movie hehe...

She was the one who chose this movie by the way because she probably was a trekkie and she did not admit it haha! She doesn't read my blog so that's okay to say hehe. So back to the story, it started on a space jump then people died in the USS Enterprise... the mighty captain sacrificed himself and rammed it into the alien's ship. This was in the eve of his wife giving birth to a healthy boy, this lad later on became the captain of the ship. Spock was in the story too, he time travelled and told of the past so he could change history. There were some drills that were started by these aliens so they could make blackholes and get these planets to implode. Soon almost the whole civilization of Spock perished, only a few survived. The alien had some sort of grudge against Spock and he wanted him to see his people die. The alien told of a story of his people dying too so that's what he did to Spock for revenge. In the end, they all were able to defeat the alien from within their ship. They also rescued the previous captain who was captured in the initial war. Spock and the new Captain became close friends, then everything was in order after they destroyed the ship and defeated the alien in hand to hand combat.

I strongly suggest you watch it if you still have time! Givin it 3 KUMAGS for effort, and becaus the date went fine! ^^ Hahah

Star Trek Maker To Spend Eternity In Space

Tuesday, January 27, 2009



Gene Roddenberry the creator of "Star Trek Series" died in 1991. His wife Majel Barrett Roddenberry hired Celestis Inc., a company that specializes in "memorial spaceflights" to launch a part of his remains into space in 1997. Majel Barrett Roddenberry died just last Dec. 18, 2008. Celestis Inc. will be launching their spacecraft carrying capsules and digitized tributes from all their fans in 2010. It will not be returning to Earth and will just fall deeper into space. Their bodies will be creamated then put into capsules and will not return to earth.

Memorial Spaceflights like these are fitting tributes for explorers, pioneers, entrepreneurs, aerospace professionals, and all who have an interest in space exploration, science fiction, or astronomy or who simply feel at home in the cosmos. I on the other hand would not like to be shipped to space like this because I'd rather stay here instead so that my family would be able to visit me anytime. ^_^

Would you like to have the same experience too?
