Wasn't Galaxy more of a Star Wars style movie? But Hey, instead of repeating itself with Khan, Klingons and time travel let go ripoff Marvel! Look I love my Sci-Fi but after binging on Star Trek TNG and DS9 on my Amazon Prime it's time for Star Trek to go back to it's roots on tv/cable.

Just when everyone thought The Avengers Ultron was the coolest trailer of the year along came the Star Wars video which was just one big tease. Where's Luke? Oh by the way these two will cross the $1 billion mark or Very Close. 50 Shades of Grey? That doesn't count. Like that's going to make $1 Billion at the box office. Ladies please.....

It sounds good except for one problem. Read the comments posted and I agree with them. There isn't enough movies in a month to go to see. Most can wait till Netflix and other sources. Take away the blockbusters, which of them suck anyways, and what do you have?
PS Most of the Xmas movies have already got mixed to bad reviews. What does that tell you?

First just the hacking alone was great publicity for the movie but now this is just bad news. This is the kind of publicity you Don't want for your movie. Well there's always sales on DVD/BDF. And if you notice I haven't been really posting news on this much since the big news will be the aftermath after all said and done.
