Discussion: Star Trek Into Darkness: Trekkie vs Casual Fan
So,
as one of our first posts here on Non-Ram, Alex thought it would be
cool to sit down with me and have a discussion about the new Star Trek
film, Star Trek Into Darkness.
Just
as a little background, I have only a passing familiarity with Star
Trek. I mostly grew up on Star Wars and have only really seen the new JJ
Abrams Trek films. This is a whole new world that I am learning about
as we go.
Alex,
on the other hand, grew up with Star Trek, watching reruns of The
Original Series (TOS) with his mom, and even watching some original runs
of The Next Generation (TNG.) He told me how he remembers the first
time he saw Wrath of Khan and how he fell in love with everything about
it. He’s been a huge fan ever since, and will always love Star Trek.
Alex
thought it would be fun to get the opinion of a Trek fan as well as a
non-Trek fan to see exactly how Abrams' films work for both sets of
viewers. I agreed and below you will find some excerpts from our
conversation. I hope you enjoy.
