Josh Has Seen the First Nine Minutes of the New Star Trek Film!
As excited as I was to see The Hobbit this past weekend, I was equally excited to take a gander at the first nine minutes of J.J. Abrams’ upcoming Star Trek sequel, being released this summer! Certain IMAX showings of The Hobbit had the first nine minutes of Star Trek Into Dar
“Far over the Misty Mountains cold…” Josh Reviews The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
During the buildup towards the release of the first film in Peter Jackson’s three-film adaptation of The Hobbit, I found myself having a hard time imagining Mr. Jackson and co. being able to top the magnificent achievement that was his Lord of the Rings trilogy. I’m sure

Movie Posters Into Darkness
So they just released the first poster for (the terribly titled) Star Trek Into Darkness. Here it is. And, hmmm, does that poster design remind anyone of anything…? Devin Faraci has already started calling the film Star Trek Into Dark Knight and I am now unabashedly stealing tha
Star Trek Cold Equations Book 1: The Persistence of Memory
David Mack’s 2006 DS9 novel Warpath made me a fan of the author’s forever (boy, I can’t believe that novel is almost a decade old!) and his epic 2008 trilogy Star Trek: Destiny (click here for my review) surely proved Mr. Mack to be one of the finest Trek authors wor
