To prove I am as geeky as the rest of you people, I got a Star Trek Phaser myself. hee hee. Here are some pics. By the way, this is my first BOUGHT Star Trek collectible. I also purchased Trek Desktop that Rico has advertised. That is such a cool thing. (Waste of $? Maybe, but its cool nonetheless)

The phaser, com, and tricorder are clearly bigger than the Playmates toys, which is good, my phaser is a little small. I like the Kelvin older phaser and comm and the Klingon com is a nice nod to STIII design. I am a bit confused by the odd brass thing on the back of the Kelvin phaser.

If I was mayor, the city would always look like this...

What does the TV ad say?

Jobydrone · May 06, 2009, 07:26:13 AM

Are there midnight showings tonight anywhere? I've been checking around Philly and it appears the first show is tomorrow afternoon around here.

Thursday was supposed to be the midnight showing day, they added some earlier shows. The official release date was supposed to be Friday.
The Thursday shows are already supposed 'pre-screenings'

Rico · May 06, 2009, 07:31:44 AM

The midnight showings are still set for late Thursday night/Friday morning. Like Joe said, they just moved it up a few hours to have some showings Thursday evening now too.

Thanks Rico! I'll see to get some of the Sony Center this evening! :)

"The Star Trek May
All movies. The best series. Galactic specials.
Real Kabel1"

Kabel1 is the station, it's satellite TV but free.
Usually the series premieres on Premiere (Pay TV), is then handed to Sat1 (satellite TV, but free) and if it's aged a bit it has reruns on Kabel1. I think TNG has above average ratings there.
But since I've given up TV a few years back, I can't give more details on what is scheduled on the program. ;)

I just caught JJ's interview on Jimmy Fallon from last night. I'm sure it's on Hulu, though i can't really find it since Hulu content is blocked for me!

Nothing really ground breaking about the film, though they did show an extended clip of Kirk on that ice planet from the trailers. Great effects!

EDIT: Oh they mentioned that Quinto and Nimoy will be on Fallon together on Friday.

Wil Wheaton went to see it. This is a completely spoiler-free review, unless you adhere to Sheldon's definition of a spoiler.
