The new Star Trek universe is different enough that Khan might not emerge as a bad guy. After all, Spock is the ladies man this time around. Think about how the destruction of Vulcan is going to change history significantly.
What if they recast Khan as an ally? That actually might be awesome if done right.
I haven't read the whole thing yet, but here's the opening of Ebert's review of the new Twilight:
The characters in this movie should be arrested for loitering with intent to moan. Never have teenagers been in greater need of a jump-start. Granted some of them are more than 100 years old, but still: their charisma is by Madame Tussaud.
I just read the whole review - it's hysterical: [link]
oh it is:
Edward and the other members of the Cullen vampire clan stand around a lot with glowering skulks. Long pauses interrupt longer ones. Listen up, lads! You may be immortal, but we've got a train to catch.
One thing I love about Ebert as a critic is that he's not just funny when he hates the movie. Because sometimes I read a review thinking "Wow, this ought to be poisonous," and that's the only time I read that person.
How long before Ebert gets letters from Twihards saying he's jealous he's not as much of a woman as Stephenie Meyer?(Although I'd start to like her if she would do a Miller-Gold cameo, maybe.)
Ok, I have to admit it. I want her to be Lloyd's client and I want Ari to clown her.
Being the psycho woman that I am, I saw it last night in all of it's beautiful, loitering, sparkly, emo, glowering, TAKE OFF YOUR SHIRT!!!!, horrible-ness.
It's better than the first one and I am a dirty, dirty woman (again). Thanks, Taylor Lautner. No. Really. Thank you.
sigh
He is really cute.
I'm not gonna lie.
If I were Bella, Edward would have his pain to console him.
But I can wait for the video for that.
Me, as Bella...is there a funnier thought?
Aims, he's a year past Age of Consent in Michigan.
My two friends that I sat with left the theater talking about any sane, adult woman would *never* choose Edward over Jacob. For one thing, you'd always be warm. It was so horrifically cheesy and angsty and there were spots that were SO BAD that we all just laughed and laughed.
But the eye candy was verra nice.
