Saw Star Trek tonight... [View all]

Good movie. Although, the guy sitting behind me came up to me after the movie and yelled at me for laughing during the funny and amusing bits telling me "It's Star Trek, not fucking Anchorman." What an asshole. It's called a sense of humor, pal, grow one. It's people like that that made me stop being a Trekkie.
