Due to Obamacare, he can only get part-time roles.

Funny comment from the comments section:
“This isn’t the droid you’re looking for..?”
I am going to say that all “the next generation” star trek movies were worse.
And Galaxy Quest was pretty good.

I feel their pain. I still can’t believe that Col. Klink came out of a window when Batman and Robin were climbing up a building. Not only did batman call address him as Col. Klink, but he told him to say Hello to Col. Hogan and all the men back at Stalag 13.

And Galaxy Quest was pretty good. By Grabthar's Hammer... you're right!
And Sigourney never looked better.

There's a second very ugly cinematic moment in the latest Star Trek "Into Darkness" with respect to it's rival Star Wars.
There is a very brief musical interlude where a snippet of the Star Trek sound track is played ...
Obviously, I can't musically describe it here, but that musical snippet appears in EVERY Star Wars movie made, often 2-3 or times in each movie.
The best way I can describe it is that's a flute-solo that has an errie quality to it.
I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Star Trek fan, with myself and my children (now adults) being able to speak in code to each other via memorized Star Trek movie dialog (from all seven TOS movies).
"Into Darkness" had incredible special effects, and the new cast does an excellent job as the TOS series actors, adding their own appreciated nuances to their roles.
But there was one-too-many parallels and quasi-spoofs to the "Wrath of Khan".
"No One" ... will EVER ... duplicate Spock's last moments in the original "Wrath of Khan".
All I can hope is that J.J. Abrams doesn't FUBAR his remaining Star Trek movies like those "idiot" brothers who did a great job on Matrix One, and then cosmically screwed-the-pooch on Matrix 2 and 3.
It was so baaaadd ... that perhaps even Putin's "Monkey with a Hand Grenade" could have done better.
And that's frightening.

Lens Flare is not a special effect, it’s more like a brain aneurysm.

Fans are becoming idiots. The “worst” Trek movie? Not even close. V was awful and X (Nemesis) is unwatchable.

Abrams is to the Trek franchise what Zero is to the Presidency.
