Star Trek (2009)
In anticipation of Star Trek Into Darkness opening next week, and our subsequent review, we’re going to review the 2009 Star Trek movie. We’ll be rating the Star Trek movies differently than the individual episodes. Instead of the scoring system being out of 5, it’ll be out of 10, and eventually we’ll also rank all the movies. For being a tightly executed, well cast and particularly exciting Trek movie, and in spite of some plot holes, we give the 2009 Star Trek an 8 out of 10. More on why we gave it this rating after the jump…

Alternate Voyager – Season One Overview
Our first entry in Alternate Voyager: Season One focuses exclusively on what our version of the premiere, Caretaker, would be like. As we’ve mentioned before, we like the first episode of Voyager a lot, and a lot has remained the same, at least compared to what we have in store for the rest of the season. Future installments also won’t be as detailed, and will include 2-4 episodes worth of story.
