Six years on, STAR TREK is still the reigning Science Fiction champion to score big and win at the Oscars. We know now Star Wars EP VII got thrashed by Mad Max 4 despite the force being nominated half a dozen times.
Heres Ben Stiller costumed as a Na'vi hunter presenting at the 82nd Academy Awards in 2010. After slagging off Star Trek and gushing over James Cameron's Avatar, our blue friend finally scrams so Star Trek winners Mindy Hall, Barney Burman and Joel Harlow can victoriously claim their Oscars for best makeup category.
Jeffrey Scott's - Battle of the Bands regales Rockstar Aficionados all the time - so having found a Science Fiction angle, I wanted to join in the "Battle of the Bands" fun.
Star Trek Beyond's teaser trailer is exploring new territory. (Alas forget Jerry Goldsmith and
James Horner) Question: Is the Beastie Boy's "Sabotage" track punchy enough to shake up the
entire galactic Federation of Lifeforms?
We need Star Trek as a NO1 box office smash hit but Beyond has
to win over the hearts of fans first. The truth is emotional reactions are running quite high. You may remember the first time Kirk played "Sabotage" in 2009 as he drove his stepdads red corvette over a cliff.
Its time to choose 1 out of 3 songs you'd like to hear in Star Trek Beyond.
1. Sabotage by Beastie Boys
2. It's My Life by Bon Jovi
3. Womanizer by Britney Spears
Which of these 3 music tracks is your favorite for Star Trek Beyond?
Let us know your "song of choice" in the comments below.

Christine Rains, C. Lee McKenzie and Tara Tyler are hosting a Winter Bloghop which I spotted over at the writegame.blogspot.com. Its all good fun. The idea is to shake
off the seasons blues by posting a fun MEME on whatever cosmically takes your fancy. All you have to
do is select a favorite image (You've probably guessed that I love Science Fiction.) Now warp over
to https://imgflip.com/memegenerator, upload - type in your words/quotes and publish!
I found an amusing snap from Galaxy Quest with "Sir Alexander Dane" (Alan Rickman) chatting with co-star Gwen deMarco (Sigourney Weaver) over
the phone. (He's alone in his apartment, STILL wearing his latex Alien Scalp on his head.) Gwen is upset
because their supreme commander "Captain Jason Nesmith" freaked out bigstyle with a fan.
