Boo. Funny. but boo. Chris Pine sucks.
the comments on this video are exactly the same as the video… but serious. I love it.
i’m not even going to bother….
LOL!
@keegan47401 Yes it is. It the name of an episode in the original series. Please google “star trek arena”, it will land you on the wikipedia article entitled “Arena (Star Trek: The Original Series)” along with pictures of the lizard dude who was a “Gorn” matching the character shown around 1:10. The first sentence reads: “Arena” is an episode of Star Trek: The Original Series. It is a first season episode, #18, production #19, first broadcast January 19, 1967 and repeated on July 6, 1967
@jonstewartfanboy It’s not called “Arena”
What, no mention of the… groan… “Prime Directive?”
@scrambledpenis That’s fair. I didn’t mean to imply that you had to like it like I do. I feel that the characters were like the original, but my opinion isn’t fact, and so yours will be different.
It is fun to debate, but I’ll call it off if you want. :)
Live long and prosper.

@millenniumf1138 I dont think the new movie is bad. I just dont think it is much like the original star trek. I feel like there is something i get from watching the original star trek that i dont get from watching anything else. I just think the original show was very innovative for it’s time and very interesting. fair?
@scrambledpenis I don’t think I’m mixing character development when I say that Spock’s experience being bullied mirror’s the racism in schools found even today in some places. The result was CD, but it’s also an example of a moral issue that still needs addressing in some places. I don’t think Nero is like other villains, because he doesn’t specifically blame Kirk for anything. He’s just a crazy man in a powerful starship, but tragic nevertheless. But you are correct; older villains are better.
Actually i found this movie to be less watchable.
@millenniumf1138 I never said the acting in the new movie was bad. I just think your mixing character development with deep meaning in a film. and i personally did not think nero was that interesting. his character is similiar to other films. i think the villians in the original star trek were much better. for example apollo, or charlie x, or nomad. all these villians are not evil they are just torment people doing the wrong things. and in the end we the audience learned something from them
i’m a trek fan and i thought this movie was good and i can’t wait until september for the next one.
@scrambledpenis Nero however was unlike every Trek villain seen, other than Khan. He was a tragic character, and unlike other Trek villains he could be identified with on a personal level. I mean, how many of us have lost a loved one? Multiply that by a few billion, and then sprinkle a bit of betrayal for flavor. You get Nero. He was a terrific motivator for the plot. Eric Bana’s performance was pretty good, considering he’s an Australian comedic actor.
SFX and acting were definitely NOT bad.
The Onion is crazy funny!
Lol!
whattup bree?
@someguy459 Yes, it was in the original series episode called “Arena”, and the lizard dude is a “Gorn”. Just an FYI for you ignorant bastards out there ;)
That was some funny shite!
@ChriosM WTF? How funny the onion “used to be?” Yeah — it was great from 1998-2009, and then yesterday it started sucking? Let me guess — you started watching/reading the onion circa 2008-2009. –eyeroll–
@thecapone45 Its from the original series. Just look up “Worst fight scene ever” on Youtube…
Harsh!
Thumbs up if you’d like to have hot sex with Bree Lindsay.
