Now, in an attempt to unite the two feuding fandoms, George Takei steps in as the ambassador for Star Peace in his unique position as the ONLY actor (at this time) who has EVER starred in BOTH!! Yes, that's right, my dear readers. George Takei is bad-ass enough to have starred in not only Star Trek as Sulu (Come on, you all KNEW that, right?), but also as Lok Durd in the Star Wars: Clone Wars tv series!! (That one I don't expect you'd have known... Hell, *I* didn't even know that until today! Which is why I'm taking the time to educate YOU as well!!)
And so, George Takei calls forth the two universes of Star Trek and Star Wars to join together in harmony and in battle against the TRUE ENEMY of us all: TWILIGHT.
Gone is any sense of heroism, camaraderie or epic battles. In its place, we have vampires that sparkle, moan and go to high school. Now, I'm not above mixing in a little sex appeal to spice up the fantasy, but sci-fi fans be warned, there are no great stories, characters or profound life lessons to be found in Twilight. Nooo…In Twilight, the only message that rings through loud and clear is: 'Does my boyfriend like me?'
Buffy, Blade... We're counting on you!!!
Ha-ha -- loved this! And I actually watch the Clone Wars, so I already knew this about GT. He is a cool dude like that, able to exist in both universe at the same time!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, yeah, down with Twilight! Bella is so vapid. I think she's sets back women by like a hundred years or something. That Oatmeal article got it right -- it's all just thinly veiled romance tropes with vamps and weres throw in just to mix things up a bit. But what hundred year old immortal would want to go back to high school? Shudder the thought!
