It’s Racism Jim and just as we know it

May 28, 2009

I’m not a trekkie or a lover of blockbusters but I really loved the new Star Trek film. It’s visually thrilling, exciting and funny. It even won round the 10 year hard-boiled film critic I went with.

Leanard Nimoy returns with great authority. It was noticeable that his closing monologue had been changed to “boldly go where no one has gone before”. Fair enough.

However was it right, in a working environment notable for it’s diversity, that the Kirk and McCoy characters repeatedly referred to Spok as “that pointy – eared b*stard”?
