CHICAGO THEATER & TV REVIEWS
CHICAGO – After a delay that lasted well in excess of a year, “24” returns to FOX this Sunday, Nov. 23, 2008 from 7 to 9 p.m. with a two-hour “special event” (they used to just be called “TV movies”) called “24: Redemption”.
CHICAGO – “Wow! I feel like I’m at a rock concert!” “Me too. It’s like I want to rush the stage!”
While overhearing this conversation between two young women at the recent Chicago opening of “Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story,” I realized there were no better words to sum up Drury Lane’s recent jukebox-blaring, toe-tapping homage to one of the greatest rock and rollers of all time.

Trailer
I’m going to see Cloverfield for the trailer. Yeah, it’s weird, but I grew up with Trek and I’m hoping this one will be good.
As for the whole ‘canon’ discussion, I can’t believe I find myself agreeing with the anal retentive bloke tearing up the description of the trailer. Growing up with TOS there are certain things you just know - Gary Mitchel is Kirk’s best friend, McCoy wasn’t Kirk’s first chief surgeon, etc. Will it kill the movie if they change it all up? No, but it’s irritating - as much as the introduction of Spock’s long lost brother in Trek V.
Embarrassed to admit all of this,
Old Trek fan
