Just got back from Star Trek - I got sappy

[cellboy]

1. Made it to the Metreon, a bit late due to bad traffic and a bus accident, so the IMax was sold out
2. Saw it on the reg screen. But will go again, mid week for an IMax viewing
3. I did get sappy in two parts;
4. The beginning when we first see the starship, I got a big lump in my throat. Impressive.
5. And at the end, when they started to play the old theme song (I actually got teary eyed)
6. Guess it's because, I remember, at the age of 13, watching the first season (what ever happened to my starship model I so lovingly built?)
7. At 13 yrs old, I was not really paying too much attention, to every detail, but the show was my fave.
8. And today, whether it is Canon or not, I still enjoyed it. Had all the adventure, and bit of humor it has always had.
9. I just wonder why they had Spock narrate the ending sequence rather than William Shatner (or at least replay the old sound byte. (Legalities?)
10. Was a good view

Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no man has gone before.

PS I believe they said "no one", instead of "no man has gone before" :(

Not surprised that they used "no one", even though this is a pre-quel... They've been using "one" since Next Gen.'s debut. (wiki's a wonderful thing!) Well, your post just cinched it... I'm gonna have to break down and go see this movie (not a movie-goer here, rather watch dvd @ home in my undies!) Thanks for the post!
