Why you should see “Star Trek” in the theater

Posted on May 16, 2009 by

Last night Swifty, Arfer and I saw the new "Star Trek" movie at the beautiful Ziegfeld Theater in midtown Manhattan.  It was just about the perfect blockbuster movie experience.

Here's some reasons why you should spend $12.50 see it in an actual movie theater (instead of waiting for DVD/Blue-ray, watching it on your iPhone, etc.):

  • Trekkers will enjoy all the insider references much more with an audience of a couple hundred other Trekkers
  • Zoe Zaldana / Chris Pine will look much yummier in the big screen
  • Digital audio surround sound makes the "pew pew" sound effects that much cooler
  • It's as bloody great as everyone has been saying it is

I can't wait to see it again!

(We also got to see trailers for many of the summer blockbusters.  Movies you probably should not see in the theaters, or really, anywhere: "Transformers II," "G.I. Joe.")

    Yup, it was pretty damn awesome. I wish I could see it at IMAX. That would be sweet.
