I saw the new Star Trek Into Darkness, and I thought it was a great film. I'm sure right now there's a Star Trek Into Darkness torrent, but I am a big fan, and I believe that it should be seen in the theater. Iron I won't give any spoilers. However, if you enjoy Trek history, there are some hilarious moments in the film. There were a few good previews, also: World War Z. I think that this film seems a little too epic for the trailer. I'm sure it will be a fun film, I'm just annoyed by films grabbing at the zeitgeist of "THE NEXT BIG EPIC FILM". Ironman 3 seems like it locked up that domain recently. There was an interesting commercial for the new HTC One. I'm not sure it really fits well in the phone ecosystem. It seems like there are three distinct types of smartphone buyers: 1. People who want Apple iphones and only iphones. They're going to buy the Iphone 6 when it arrives. 2. People who want the best Android, top-notch. They want the powerful and prestigious Android phone. 3. People who want a cheap Android, like an economy-class car. They want something that is affordable. Now, the HTC One seems like it's aiming for a class of people who may not exist in America. It's got a 1.7Mhz Snapdragon Quad-core; Samsung Galaxy has a similar ARM with GPU, likewise with the iphone. In my mind, the processor doesn't seem to matter as much when compared to the branding. It's got a shiny case; not quite the Iphone. It's got HTC blinkfeed...which does not describe the fact that it's a media streamer. The problem with media streaming is that it can be jumpy even on LTE. Not to mention that you need good reception, which is an issue with the carrier, not the phone. It's got a pretty good camera. Again, iphone and Samsung. Price? Maybe. The HTC seems to cost around $200 with a contract, the Samsung Galaxy s4 around $250. I think this is the only selling point HTC has when it comes to ostensible features. With iphone, the problem is phone insurance. What about the interface? I would imagine that the average person only wants to learn one interface and stay with that style of phone manipulation. (See die-hard blackberry users.) If you're a fan of Samsung, the HTC probably might not sway you away with only a unique interface. In closing, I admit that I would be tempted to try out an HTC one if I had an extra $200 laying around. However, I also said that about the Nokia Lumia...and I probably won't be getting a Windows Phone anytime soon, after using a Samsung Android for so long.
