And to be fair, there were some things that I did like:  McCoy was great, Kirk was great, the special effects were great.  But the story had huge plot holes in it:  explain to me why the bad guy, Nero, makes it back in time (when his homeworld ISN'T destroyed) and instead of saving it in the past, decides he must destroy Vulcan and Earth, et al. to hurt Spock's feelings? I can't be the only one who saw this incredible, glaring error in the storyline can I? Time travel story lines are usually fraught with problems that are difficult to resolve in a way that doesn&rsquo;t throw your audience out of the film or book.  This one didn&rsquo;t even appear to try.<br /><br />As I said, it wasn't AWFUL, but it wasn't very good either. It was a slam-bang, action flick with little heart, even less story, and logical inconsistencies that -- Trek fandom aside -- should embarrass the writers. Most of all, there was none of the optimism or big ideas that are the hallmark of Trek.]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Paradise Island</title><dc:creator>user@domain.com</dc:creator><category>Short Stories</category><dc:date>2009-05-17T16:36:54-07:00</dc:date><link>http://www.nexuspdx.com/page5/files/d6c8007bdf0e530c390ae717bc2917cc-0.html#unique-entry-id-0</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.nexuspdx.com/page5/files/d6c8007bdf0e530c390ae717bc2917cc-0.html#unique-entry-id-0</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[This is the first short story I ever wrote.  My hope is that this blog on the site will grow and that I will grow as a writer with it.  Occassionally, I&rsquo;ll also post information on my friend from work, Ken Scholes, who&rsquo;s a highly accomplished writer.  His book series -- the Psalms of Isaak -- have begun publication.  The first book, Lamentation, is fantastic.  If you love fantasy or sci-fi, pick up a copy.  Well worth the read.<br /><br /><hr></hr>]]></content:encoded></item></channel>
