Kevin Smith Uses the R Word


When I first read that he used the "R" word to discuss the new Star Trek movie, I thought for sure he was going to say "Retarded". Alas, no...

Kevin Smith, the only guy in Hollywood who's actually seen Star Trek more than once, called the movie a "reboot." He could just be referring to the fact that the original characters are played by new actors — or he could be dropping a bombshell about how the film resets Trek continuity. Or he could just be throwing terminology around. [Sci Fi Wire]

Then I read this:

Chris Pine describes his own performance as Captain Kirk: "I got to do everything: yell, shout, cry, laugh, take charge and be vulnerable." So now you know, Kirk cries in the new movie. [First Showing]

Uh, look, if Cap'n Kirk fuggin CRIES -- yeah, that's retarded.

This "new" Star Trek movie can't be any worse than Cloverfield? Or can it?
