Let me tell
you about my experiences with Star Trek
Yeah, whilst
it took me until I was in my 20s before I watched Star Wars for the firs time,
I never watched Star Trek. I think I had an old VHS of it, but it never caught
my attention. But in 2009 they decided to reboot the franchise in bring it in
the New direction, brought to us by the guy who directed the Force Awakens and
Mission Impossible 3, JJ Abrams.
The movie
was modestly successful, earning $385m on a $150m budget, not that great, but enough
to kickstart this franchise anew leading to a new TV series on Netflix. Look,
my schedule’s pretty packed, I may get to discovery some-when down the line but
not in the near future.
