Star Trek a Love Hate relationship.

Being an awkward teenager, Star Trek almost griped a paralyzing fear other my nerdness, even anything could make my personality less impaling to girls than in already was, Star Trek would make my awkwardness even worse. I had been a Star Wars fan since I was kid. Star Trek the Next Generation and Deep Space Nine were on the air when I was a kid, and they never seemed to appeal to me, mainly because I was always more interested in Star Wars. Star Trek was always geared to different crowd outside the main stream. Star Trek is series designed to help you think and expand your knowledge and understanding as oppose to show casing fast paced action, and sex. The first pilot episode of Star Trek "The Cage" as rejected by NBC because it was too mind bending  and lacked action. While most Sci-Fi is designed to help its viewers  think and expand upon their way of thinking, main stream audience don’t pacticlure get into to Scifi because of that very reason, they won’t more action, and more sex. George Lucas took his inspiration for STAR WARS from things such as Flash Gordon, and other fantasy tales he grew up reading as a child.  Lucas felt lots of Sci-Fi that pre dated Star Wars, lacked the sense of heroism, and adventure. There has been a rivalry between both franchises. To me as good who grew up idolizing heroes, and being taken away their heroics, and how they always pull through against the bad guys, Star Trek, for what it appeared to be always seemed kind of strange, boring, and uninteresting. The only difference between Star Trek and Star Wars, is the word Star. Stark Trek was pitched to NBC by Gene Rodenberry as a band wagon to the stars, and sort of space western. Star Trek, is about exploring space for the needs to better ones culture, in the future of United Federation of Planets, money is no longer the means of living, and search of exploration is. Star Wars however, is about more than just blowing star ships. Mastering the force requires lots of thinking and focus, and dose teaches valuable lessons, to believe in your own self and let go of fear.

My whole life the words beam me up Scotty were quoted directly to my face, and I was excused of being a tricky due to my nerdy appearance, however I knew nothing about Star Trek literally nothing, about the show, or the characters, I knew zip. And that because I had stayed away from the franchise. As a teenager I got into Isaac Asimov, and Piers Anthony, and Terry Brooks. When the Lord of The Rings movies wrapped up in  2003 I hope it would at least build up enough potential to view to get girls to like me but was I just too hopeless.

Most of my inspirtion for Scifi came from a little knowm british series called Red Dwarf. If you were too compare Star Trek and Red Dwarf, i would simply put it this way. Star Trek  is the white colour of space, Red dwarf is the blue colour. With all the witt and charm of Mounty Pyphon, unlikee the situations and diolege in Star Trek, Red Dwarf never took it self too serously. While shows like Red Dwarf made mockrey of Star Trek you still see its influence.

You can see the influence from Star Trek in a lot off Scfi, just like with Star Wars. Love it or hate, its infulence is seen a lot in our culture.

It was always for me persanly, the way Trekies or Treckers, are viewed by society. They ware the franshise too heavly on their sleevs, and if they won to isolate them selvs in thee fantasey world, cuase like accident rome, Star Wars and Stark Trek fans feel both worlds, need to be learned and explored. Convetions can often be imdeamting, yet if ones isn’t love by female society do their haveny interest in a franchise, they need to not worry about well female society, and just find a female that suits them, and is willing in accept their intrest. When I say wearing the franchise heavely on youre sleev to the point were it isolates  ones self, im not just talking fan convetions, and the way societys views Trekies patilccure when I comes to often being a virgin and not appealing to females.  Star Treks fans have taken their love of the show, as shown in the documentary Trekies. They see the fanchise as a way of life, dressing up as charicters, even wearing extensive make up, there some who have had Star Trek themed weddings.

As the 2009 reboot was fastly approaching I myself still knew  very little about the franchise . My areas of interest in 2005s Stars Wars III Revenge of The Sith, which I enjoyee very much despite the mixted reviews, I had also been a Superman fan my whole life and was exploring that world in  paticlure, in other worlds Super Heroes have always been my main thing.

The first even episode I was watched of Star Trek was trouble with triffles in a high school math class, as rather, more relaxing lesson given by the teacher.  And the second episode I watched didn’t come until four years later, after lot having a very good experience in a night club, I began to drown my sorrow on the internet, and I figured since the neww reboor was looking really good, I was time to watch another episode of Star Trek, the episode in which crew are infected by simlure inxtocation which one would get my achol, felt somewhat simulure to a Red Dwarf episode called Polly moprh. I later watched Charlie X and Space Seed. When I saw Star Trek 2009 I was blown away, I coudnt bleeive JJ Abrams made Star Trek cool. It totally change my views on Scifi, that it can be sexy, cool, and have lots of action,

After years of hiding from Star Trek, and avoiding it at all cost, i figured that there was a lot to learn from the show. Every adventure has a lesson, one tthat expand on the way we think to give a us a bigger prespective of the universe, to understand th diversty, and who we are, and to think and live better. I don't consider myself a Trekie,, and instead of ending this with a quote from Spock ill just say ill bodly end this post like no man has before. Well atleast ill end it with a good luck.

What if Super Heroes were real.

lWhat if, we lived a world were masked men in tights capes or spandex really did run though our streets. This concept has been explored in such media as Watchmen, Kickass, and even The Dark Night. Vigilantes who take the law into their own hands, to help bring criminals to justice. Alan Moore’s Watchmen chronicled the lives of costumed avengers, in an alternate universe. Once criminals started wearing masked and costumes, a group called The Minute Men decided to do the same. However some of these men became victims, of their own life style habits, one killed due to her own seductive life style, one getting his cape stuck, and another who just went insane. Apart from serve even life threatening injuring that would  require intense medical attention, hospitalization, and months of recovery, are these such what took place with the original Minuet Men the realalistc aspects of what a hero live super hero might face. In the film Kickass, one young teenager questioned what if someone tried to be a super hero, and sets out to do it, despite his first outing wasn’t a charmer. And in his wake he inspires others, but his actions lead to such violence and consequence. In The Dark Trilogy, no super heroes exist, but the Bruce Wayne we all know and love steps out of comfort zone, to seek training to fight the war on crime, and project his fear into a symbol known as The Batman, and use his theater tics and stunts, to pull off the job. The Dark night trilogy unlike ike The Burton and Schumacher era that was just Hollywood hoopla and over rated character pieces, The Villains in The Dark Knights trilogy Joker and Bane were more like that kind of super villains you would imagine in the real world, who would really put society under a micro scope, using fear to manipulate us.   Superman is meant to never grow old and live forever, but were kids what we don’t realize is that even most heroes aren’t immortal like Superman. Even though realistic aspects such as aging don’t come about often in comics, a young Stan Lee dared to do comics his way, as his wife suggested. Lee proved throughout his work in Marvel that comics weren’t just for kids. They told him they counts make Spiderman, cause A he couldn’t be a teenager, B he couldn’t have problems. Spiderman was the prime example of a super powered being in the real world, who was a nerd that was UN popular in school, lived with his aunt, and lost his uncle at the hands of brutal murder. Uncle Ben always dad Peter "with great power comes great responsibility. Spiderman/Peter Parker was always pitted to make certain choice given to the good and bad. And losing his girlfriend Gwen Stacy was only one of those many choices.

If one too to really go through with being a Super Hero, what one think.

It would depend on the hero’s actions, the way they are carried out and most of all the way heroes present his or her self.  Charles Xavier made his heroes wear uniforms because it was something people would understand.
Yet has a Seattle man named Phoenix Jones helped answer the question of how one would view a real life super hero. Some have applauded Phoenix Jones others have been spectacle. Some say what Jones dose his dangerous, and should be left to the police, who he his followers mostly wind up calling when the situation gets out of hand. When using pepper spray on a hostile citizen, Jones was arrested, ordered to reveal his identity.
Taking the law into ones owns hands is very dangerous, and most of all deadly. I myself would recommend any one to take on the role of a real life super hero. Its fun to fantasize, just like a lot of other things, but harder to take on.
