LA ALERT!: Big screening, little screening for Trek movie(s) this weekend

If you're in SoCal this weekend and have room for one more look at Star Trek 2009 (and who doesn't?):

--You can catch it no-frills and free Saturday, Dec. 12 at 1:30 p.m. at the North Hollywood Regional Library, 5211 Tujunga Ave., North Hollywood CA 91601-3119 ... (818) 766-7185. The USS Angeles local Starfleet chapter is acting as host with door prizes, refreshments and a little Q&A prior.

—Or if you'd care for a bigger splash, JJTrek opens a double-bill in a special two-day Trek film event at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday at Santa Monica's historic Aero Theater, sponsored by American Cinematheque, Geek Monthly and trekmovie.com. PineKirk & Co. open things on screen Friday, followed by Marc Altman and Robert Meyer Burnett's 10th anniversary screening of their affectionate Trek homage, Free Enterprise—complete with their cast-crew reunion and panel afterwards. Saturday brings The Film Trilogy—Treks II, III and IV—with a special Q&A session with writer-director Nick Meyer.

So, set sail and take your pick; no 3-D glasses required. 2012, of course, could be a different story...
