It’s Monday, I’m back at work. Still wondering where the weekend went. It was full of Star Trek and Pokemon Go. High nerd factor. I hope you all have a great start of the week.

Being a nerd is simply awesome. 

WOW! Star Trek: Beyond Is Awesome! #startrek

Star Trek: Beyond was one hell of a ride. It was very well done with plenty of action, adventure, thought-provoking questions and so much more. The story of a crew coming together under dire circumstances is a significant theme of this movie. It is also a love letter of sorts to Star Trek past and present. Beyond features new villains, new stories and a new direction I think for the franchise that will make it more a more serious series.

It’s a movie well worth seeing in the theater. This movie pays tribute to the late Leonard Nimoy and the late Anton Yelchin who have both passed away since the last Star Trek film. It’s a great film, it is a great piece of sci-fi too.

Star Trek: Beyond – This Afternoon’s Movie Adventure

I am looking forward to this! Beyond is the latest in the rebooted series of Star Trek films with J.J. Abrams as the producer/director. From what I hear this is pretty, pretty good. Let’s boldly go to the movies this afternoon.

It’s a beautiful Sunday morning here in Chattanooga. My day involves church, lunch and the new Star Trek movie this afternoon. Let’s have a great day.
