Decision: Star Trek or Alien?
I saw these two t-shirts. I love them both but am torn between which one to get!
Both appeal to the geek in me. One is in my size, Small and the other is Large. Needed help to decide and sent help request via Facebook...
Friends and relatives chipped in with the decision-making. Now I know who are Star Trek fans and who are Alien fans lol.
In the end, I went with Star Trek because it probably won't freak people out and it is in my size lol. :D

Star Trek vs Star Wars
And Star Trek won! Lol.
Having grown up with both Star Wars and Star Trek in my life, I couldn't decide which one I like more or which one is more me lol. So I took the Blogthings quiz "Are you Star Wars or Star Trek?" to help me decide.

| You Are Star Trek |
 Stories with a strong ethical element are compelling to you. You like to think about what's right and wrong. You appreciate the down to earth approach Star Trek takes to sci-fi. It's both relatable and relevant. You could totally see yourself in the Star Trek universe. You'd be the first to enroll at Starfleet Academy. |

For BSG Fans
I saw a video on my friend's Facebook and really loved it. The video, which is a music clip of an Extended Battlestar Galactica Opening, is editted beautifully. I think other Battlestar Galactica fans would enjoy the video. :) Unfortunately, I can't upload the video here but here is the link for it on Youtube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-gvgPEtv4g
Enjoy. :)
Enjoy. :)

Tron: Legacy
Goodness, another trip down memory lane lol. Tron!!
The original Tron (1982) was, at least for me, considered darn radical, high-tech and futuristic. :P The new Tron: Legacy is still just as radical, high-tech and futuristic!! :) Lol. It didn't just bring back some of the original cast like Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner, I was really tickled to see the movie also incorporated things from the first movie! :) Never mind if there are loopholes in the storyline, the special effects, sound effects and music score are absolutely awesome and brilliant. Tron: Legacy definitely provides a perfect escape from our world. :)

District 9
I had some time off today and decided to watch a movie. Settled on District 9. It looked interesting enough from the advert and it is only showing in a few cinemas which meant I could also avoid the crowd.
District 9 turns out to be one of the best movies I have seen so far. It is a thought-provoking movie. It makes you ponder long after the movie has finished screening. District 9 is a sci-fi movie filmed as a mock documentary by first-time filmmaker, Neill Blomkamp and with first-time actor, Sharlto Copley casted as the lead role, a goofy government officer. It is almost like Cloverfield, another sci-fi movie as seen from a videocam but District 9 is tons better!! As the movie advances, it makes you ponder long and deep about issues such as rights as a group, rights as an individual, segregation, supremacy, what is humanity. There is also the exploration of emotions. Before you dismiss it as one of those boring thinking movies, there is action too and pretty cool. :) District 9 is definitely engaging both in terms of the drama as well as the action. Oh, but if you can't stand blood and gore, District 9 might not be so suitable for you. If you enjoyed movies like Cloverfield and The Blair Witch Project, you will definitely find District 9 your cup of tea.
District 9 is about a race of aliens who became stranded on Earth, and most refreshingly, in South Africa. The humans designated a district (thus, the name of the movie, District 9) for the aliens to live in but they are kept segregated from the humans. A series of events followed when the aliens were being moved from their slums in District 9 to a new district... Enjoy the trailer.

Star Trek 2009
It is a day off for me today so I decided to catch Star Trek 2009 on the big screen. :)
I am considered a Trekkie, I suppose haha. :P I have watched every episode of Star Trek: The Original Series and its spin-offs such as Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Voyager, and Star Trek: Enterprise. The only spin-off I have missed is Deep Space Nine. I have watched all the Star Trek movies starting from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, The Wrath of Khan, The Search for Spock, The Voyage Home, The Final Frontier, The Undiscovered Country, First Contact, Insurrection, and Nemesis. For me, the most memorable movie with the original cast is The Wrath of Khan and the most memorable movie with The Next Generation cast is First Contact. :)
I came out of the cinema all SMILES. Star Trek 2009 went beyond my expectations. I am amazed how the new cast managed to "look" like the original cast in terms of mannerism, their essence and looks too: Spock, Dr "Bones" McCoy, Kirk, Uhuru, Sulu, ... I am really happy that Leonard Nimoy, the original Spock reprised his role as the elder Spock in the movie. It was just amazing to see the younger (and new) Spock along side the elder (and original) Spock. They look uncannily alike! The action sequences were really great and kept me off my seat. :) I can't wait to see the next Star Trek movie and "to boldly go where no man has gone before" with this new Star Trek cast. :P I think with this new Star Trek movie, there will be a new generation of Trekkies. :) Here's to Trekkies, "Live Long and Prosper". :)
Here is the trailer for Star Trek 2009.
Here are my favourite pieces from the Star Trek 2009 OST
PS.
I specifically looked for this when I was at the Hollywood Walk of Fame, USA. :)

Sci-fi and Supernatural Galore
I am really glad that I am now subcribed to Sci Fi and AXN Beyond! It is a real sci fi and supernatural galore on those channels! All my favourite series in just 2 channels, such as Battlestar Galactica, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, The X-Files, Roswell, Mysterious Ways, The Dresden Files, Firefly, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Eureka and many more...!!! :) Yes, I know I am such a sci fi and supernatural junkie, hahaha. :P
Fortunately (or unfortunately?!), I am working. If not, I think I would be glued to the tv the whole day, not that I would mind, LOL. :P
