California

Massachusetts

SeeingStar Trekon the big screen again sounds like a good time, though sitting through Star Trek Into Darkness again probably isn’t desirable for most fans. While the sequel was entertaining, the story was messy and convoluted and it wasn’t anywhere near as good as the first one. Here’s hoping director Justin Lin gets the franchise back on track.
