Got a couple quick things I gotta get off my chest.
– So there’s a random poster at Trekweb who started a poll asking who would boycott the upcoming Star Trek movie if it doesn’t include Shatner. The poster is a deluded fool to think that Shatner will make the movie good and that Shatner needs to be here. I don’t think Shatner needs to be in Trek. His time has passed, he did his bit, and now he’s getting a career revival as Denny Crane. And as for Trek, it’s done fine without Shatner. People like to say that Shatner is Trek, but last time I checked, Shatner only lasted seventy-nine episodes, a short animated series, and seven movies. Most modern (or formerly modern, I suppose) incarnations of Trek have lasted longer. So yeah, Trek is doing fine and will continue to do fine without Shatner.
– For those who missed it, the first Power Rangers convention was held this past week-end. From what I’ve heard, it was a pretty good time had by all, as some old faces from the MMPR days showed as well as the recent new blood. I’m almost sorry I couldn’t make it, but then, I’m not much of a convention-type person.
– I’m digging the current Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness miniseries currently going on. For those who don’t know, this series is a crossover between Marvel Zombies (zombified versions of classic Marvel heroes) and the idiot Ash from the Evil Dead/Army of Darkness flicks. This is a great, somewhat hilarious mini that’s worth the read if you’re into AoD or Zombies.
So that’s it on my part…
Wait… am I forgetting something?
Oh right. That.
I’ll have my thoughts on the matter posted in a Bite commentary in a couple days.
