Star Trek Trailer Has High Five

STAR TREK (2009)

This is not the same Star Trek that I use to fall asleep during on Saturday nights when I was a young chap. I’m predicting that the world will fight a third war that will be started by autograph hungry Twilight fans and incredibly pissed off Trekkies rioting in the streets. Video after the More.

    November 18th, 2008 at 03:23 am This is going to bastardize everything we've come to know about Star Trek. It looks like a teen romance show on the WB. And yet you take umbridge with a high five, that isn't fully shown? I don't care if it's a high five or a pat on the back, the the to be scared of is that the beginning of this trailer looks like Dawson's Creek and the rest looks utterly stupid.

    I’m saddened by the fact that my generation does not see the obvious metaphorical underpinnings of the high five, and the distinct signification of its bastardization of our popular culture. Plus, doesn’t Spock look like a pole smoker?
