I'm a total Sci-Fi nerd but for some reason never got into Star Trek. I'd definitely see it though, I'm sure I'd enjoy it.
TNG is the best Star Trek franchise ever, if for no other reason than that I could listen to Patrick Stewart read stock quotes all day long and still be mesmerized.
LOVE! The series finale is still my all time favorite series finale ever. It was perfect.
And yes, I'm the trekkie! H didn't really care for Star Trek until I made him watch it. I posted in another thread about wanting to go the Star Trek convention in Boston in June (want to come?). I *really* wish I had time to sew a costume. Oh well, maybe we can buy them there!
We're going to see it this weekend with some friends.
We went to see Iron Man 3 on opening weekend. It was hilarious, we were in FL on vacation, so we went to the 10:20 PM show on Sunday. I was worried it would be busy, so we went early to get good seats. Yeah, we were in the theater ALONE! They had it playing on like 6 screens. It was so awesome to be there all by ourselves! And the movie was really good, definitely go see it!!

I do! We're seeing it on Friday. I had to see the first one without H because he didn't want to see it. Then he saw it with a friend after hearing it was good. So this time he's coming with.
I just saw that they're showing it at Jordans in Reading in 3-D on the IMAX which might make it more entertaining to me. DH was psyched to hear that, so we'll probably go see it there on Sunday.
LOL, we're going tonight! We saw the last one as our first movie together as a couple (yes we're lame movie goers) on opening day and loved it. I'm pretty stoked.
We were going to see Iron Man 3 on vacation but DH got sick. So yeah, totally want to see that.

I love, love, love Star Trek: TNG and also the first movie by JJ Abrams with Chris Pine as Kirk. I am so excited to see this new one. I am trying to convince H to take me on Friday - but I also really want to see Gatsby. We almost never go to the movies, though.
I am hoping he will take me the Lux Level at Patriot Place. Have you guys ever been there? It is so fun, you get table service at the seats and can order cocktails, beers, food, etc.
I def wanted to see Iron Man 3 and I totally want to see the new Fast and Furious movie, I mean it's got all the original cast and I did really like the first one Star Trek I enjoyed but I wouldn't have picked it to see at the theaters. I would be game for going to a convention though. My husband always talks about wanting to go to the big Comic Con in San Diego and I'd totally go with him to that, even just to people watch I love the costumes!
We saw Star Trek last night! We enjoyed it, but I was sort of expecting better. It was a great action movie with great visuals, but I felt the plot was a little thin and forced for dramatic and 3D affect. I guess that's how most movies are these days. I think we liked Iron Man 3 better.
So many good movies this year! We also want to see Monsters University, Despicable Me 2, Superman... I'm pretty sure there are more. I can't remember the last time we saw 2 movies in less than 6 months!
Man, it was expensive though. We went to Patriot Place and it was $16 per person! Ouch. It was only $10 in Florida.
ETA: I like JJ Abrams, but now I'm worried with him doing the new Star Wars movies too.

We had a rare date night last weekend and I was set to see Gatsby....until I realized Star Trek was out. I didn't find out until after that DH apparently wasn't even that interested. I didn't really want to see the first one, but I went with him and LOVED it so I was excited for this one, especially with the good reviews. I was not disappointed.
