MINE: This film boldly goes where no Star Trek has gone before.
HIS: Like so many franchises, it’s more concerned with repeating a successful formula than going boldly where no “Star Trek” has gone before.
Bob Mondello (NPR) THREE TIMES-
MINE: This film boldly goes where no Star Trek has gone before.
HIS: You'd think... there'd be few places in the universe a Federation starship could still "boldly go where no one has gone before."
CLR's: This movie has its Phasers set to "STUN"
HIS: In short, to set phasers on stun with a killer opening sequence
And a "warp speed" pun. Again.
HIS: it's hard to imagine anyone caring much why we're plunging ahead at warp speed, when the ride is so insanely satisfying.
Tom Charity (CNN) DUAL APPEARANCE-
MINE: Star Trek not only lives long, but it prospers!
HIS: May his work live long and prosper.
And a "warp speed" pun. Again.
HIS: This exhilarating blockbuster gets under way at warp speed.
Carrie Rickey (Philadelphia Inquirer) THRICE-
MINE: Dammit Jim, he's a doctor, not a heart throb
HERS: To paraphrase McCoy, I'm a movie critic, Jim, not a physicist.
CLR's: This movie has its Phasers set to "STUN"
HERS: Abrams has the Enterprise crew set phasers to stun
This "warp speed" one doesn't even make sense:
‘Star Trek’ prequel a warp-speed success
HERS: To paraphrase McCoy, I'm a movie critic, Jim, not a physicist.
CLR's: This movie has its Phasers set to "STUN"

Peter Travers (Rolling Stone) -
MINE: This film boldly goes where no Star Trek has gone before
HIS: still boldly go where no man, William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy included, has gone before
Yup, warp speed again:
Summer officially hits warp speed with Star Trek
Claudia Puig (USA Today)
MINE: Resisting Star Trek is futile
HERS: Resistance is futile
MINE: This film boldly goes where no Star Trek has gone before
HERS: it boldly goes a long way where previous Star Treks haven't gone before
To those who used a cheap, played out, canned "warp speed" pun - shame on you! To the rest of you who used the new, brilliant, creative puns that I came up with in under a minute, kudos! Good work! Way to be "out of the box" and creative.
Good work on this.
ReplyDeleteI like this as an ongoing feature similar to guessing the NY Post headline. Can be occasional, whenever inspired. But I want to play along.
Most definitely.
ReplyDeleteI think we'd nail a lot more of them with group work.
"transported" was one that came up a lot. I should have come up with that. We would have.
J'accuse - There's no way you knew all these Star Trek phrases. You googled. Which make you no better than the rest of us.
