It's like writing a beautiful piece of literature, and having it interpreted by literalists.
*raises hand*
I like Star Trek (all of it, except Voyager.) I used to go to conventions, too, usually with my mom, my best friend and some other girlfriends. I even dressed as Jadzia Dax for Halloween.
This is going to effect my GT package rating, isn't it?
EDIT: What, no Chris Pine in your captain's list?
I want to get Jun into star trek--she likes the new movies--but having her watch the "old" stuff presents problems. First, I'd have to find boxed sets that have Chinese subs. This itself may not be too hard, but even I cringe at having her watch some of the 1st and 2nd season of TNG. Then of course, there's the original series...
Maybe just skip around a little? She doesn't need to watch every episode. Cherry pick the good ones and/or the ones that have important character or mythology moments.

Chris Pine wasn't a TV captain. I doubt she'd have referred to a Star Trek movie as "one episode."*raises hand*

Also: I haven't actually *met* you. I meant met in the meatspace sense.
It'd be no surprise to me that most of the females around here like Star Trek... but then, nobody around here is "average," ya?
It's a joke Nick, Bryan Adams is universally adored in Canada by both of its peoples. The long eared and the short eared.
I grew up watching the original Star Trek in syndication...because my mom liked it. She also watched all of the newer Star Trek series, including Voyager and Enterprise. She has all of the movies either on DVD or VHS depending on when the movie came out. Honestly, she is just a big space sci-fi fan. The only more recent show set in space that she hasn't watched is Firefly, but I bet if I showed it to her she would devour it.
And then, 10 minutes later, it would be over, and she'd be asking for seconds that never come.

I enjoyed Howard the Duck.

That movie is one of my guiltiest of guilty pleasures.I enjoyed Howard the Duck.
My grey hair. Not that people hate mine in particular, but almost all of the women I know who are greying spend a lot of time and money on dying their hair. I like my grey hair. It's pretty.
McDonald's fries taste like salted cardboard to me. Mind you, I'm not a picky eater, but I have to force myself to eat those.
Sill man. You're not supposed to eat the box they come in!
Archer is proof you shouldn't pick starship captains based on who's father designed the engine.Well, let me ask it like this: Which of the following pictures is of the captain of the Star Trek you watched?

Yeah, but you saw the episode that flashed back to the picking? The only other candidate was a pompous flash-gordon wannabe who would have treated every alien he came across as Ming the Merciless.
But...Carrot Top is one of the least funny, most annoying people in the entertai -
Ohhhh. I get it!
Someone who gets it!
Thank you. Seriously.
I really enjoyed Titan A.E.There have certainly been worse movies that got higher praise than this one:
Most definitely.
It's not my favourite (that'd be DS9), but I always enjoyed watching it. When I had cable and saw it was on, I'd usually turn to that channel.
In the same vein of Star Trek, I think I'm one of the only people alive that liked Insurrection.
