Star Trek: Into Darkness teaser released

So who is excited for the new Star Trek movie?

It seems like it's been ages since the Star Trek brand was reworked on the big screen. Star Trek, starring Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and Zoe Saldana, was released in 2009.

I guess it will be about five years old by the time the sequel goes to theatres.

The movie poster looks akin to The Dark Knight Rises, but doesn't really give many clues as to what will happen in the film.

The new teaser trailer for Star Trek: Into Darkness that was just released gives us a little more information.


I've always been more of a Star Wars fan, but the trailer looks cool. It seems J.J. Abrams is going all out with this new threat that the crew of the Enterprise will face. In the teaser, there's a shot of what appears to be the Enterprise, crashing down into the ocean.

I'm not sure what other plots will be brought into the film, but it looks like the overall plot will be the threat of someone destroying Earth. The responsibility to save the planet will, of course, lie on the shoulder's of Captain Kirk, Spock and company. The trailer didn't feature much of Spock though, which seemed odd. I'm assuming he'll play as big a role as he did last time around, but I guess we'll see when the movie is released.

I'm trying not to keep too up-to-date with the plot and the cast of the movie, so I'm anxious to find out who this new villain is and why he, all by himself, is such a threat to the planet.

All in all, I guess it's a successful trailer. It caught my interest and, most importantly, the entire plot wasn't revealed. I hate it when movie previews leave me with no reason to watch the actual movie.

What do you think? Disappointed or excited? Take a look at the trailer and leave a comment.

Celebrity (look-a-like) sightings - part 3

Part 1 and Part 2 were good, but I think there's some definite look-a-likes this time around. I'll get right to the comparisons, but let me know what you think? Am I spot on or what? I saved the very best (and closest comparison) for last this time, so make sure to scroll to the bottom of the page. On the left: Edge On the right: Jamie Campbell Bower May as well start with a wrestling-related one. It seems those pro wrestlers have doppelgängers all over. I'd mentioned before that Wilson Bethel resembles Edge . I still stand by that statement. However, I think Jamie Campbell Bower looks even more like Edge. Jamie Bower, for those who are unaware like I was, is an actor who has quite an impressive resume already. I just watched The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (review to come later) and that's the first time I saw him...or so I thought. Jamie was in the final three Twilight movies, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Parts 1 and 2 , and t...

Choosing a side on DVD menu's -- what's the point?

Most DVDs go to a menu screen after you’re done hearing about ‘the cloud,’ how cigarettes can kill you and seeing a preview for the latest animated film. Some, however, give you an option. ‘Pick a side,’ they say. I’ve run into this twice recently – with the G.I. Joe DVD and The Break-Up DVD . At first I thought it was a cool concept. Maybe, if you pick Cobra’s side, there’s an alternate ending? Or maybe some special features --- like an in-depth look at Storm Shadow’s sword training. If you pick the side of the Joe’s, maybe there’s a look at their stunt training. No, no, and no. I went with Cobra and it takes you to the exact same screen, with the exact same features, as it does when you pick G.I. Joe. Same thing with The Break-Up .

R.I.P. to the Apple Grande

I got some sad news recently: Taco John's discontinued their deliciously underrated treat: the apple grande. For me, this is worse than the Twinkie ordeal earlier this year. I grew up eating these whenever my family went to Taco John's. You didn't even need to get a taco. A Pepsi, potato oles and an apple grande was a delicious meal by itself. The apple grande was not one of those treats that you'd often hear people talking about. There are probably quite a few people out there who never even got to experience the taste bud happiness that the apple grande provided. It was an amazing, crispy flour tortilla that was coated in cinnamon and sugar and topped with warm apple filling, cheddar cheese and crushed cinnamon candy. I was told by one of the Taco John's locations that they no longer served the apple grande and that it was a nationwide change. I don't know if that's the case or not. The item is still listed on the Taco John's website...
