  1. Hubby is a long time Trekkie and he absolutely loves all of these selections. Me? Not so much. But right up his alley for sure.

  2. I don’t think I’ve watched most of these movies. I would say I’ve only seen Ender’s Game. It would be nice to see these flicks especially since I find Sci-Fi fascinating!
