The Nexus #52 - Star Trek (2009) (Patreon)

On this very special edition of The Nexus, the gang closes out 2020 with a lengthy discussion about the better-than-they-remembered 2009 J.J. Abrams Star Trek. Were the lens flares really that bad? Are we still cool with the Beasties on the soundtrack? And how rad was that Sulu swordplay? PLUS: Bones just throwing around "hobgoblin" in this movie?

Star Trek stars Leonard Nimoy, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Eric Bana, Bruce Greenwood, Karl Urban, Zoe Saldana, Simon Pegg, John Cho, Anton Yelchin, Ben Cross, Winona Ryder, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Morrison, and Clifton Collins Jr.; directed by J. J. Abrams.

The Nexus is a We Hate Movies podcast where the guys futilely go through two Star Trek series at thesame time. Thank you so much for continuing to support this weird thing known as WHM! We couldn't do it without you!
