Movies Ayo! Scott: Boldly Go See Star Trek

Kirk and Spock team up to probe deep space.

Ayo! Scott identifies with James Tiberius Kirk. The critic and the captain both know that, whether the skin is yellow, red, black, white, brown, green or blue, it’s all black hole when the lights go out. That’s about as deep space as Ayo!’s identification with Star Trek goes. After all, he doesn’t have a glandular problem or sleep on a twin bed in his mom’s basement, and the only convention he’s interested in is girl-girl-girl-MILF-Ayo! It’s a testament to director J.J.

Movies John Cho Talks Star Trek, Stoner Fans & Celebrity Rock Bands

This weekend, do yourself a favor: go see the new Star Trek. Even if you aren’t a Trekkie, director J.J. Abrams has created what will no doubt be one of the most entertaining flicks of the year (trust us).

One actor we’re happy is associated with this quality blockbuster-to-be is John Cho. He was just on Complex’s cover last year, but we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to check up on our old Harold & Kumar homie about his high-profile project. In the quick “Mantras” interview from our April/May 2009 issue, we spoke to J.C. about everything from stepping into Lieutenant Sulu’s shoes to whether or not his band Viva La Union could take Jared Leto.
