My main problem with Steam Trek:
1. Title cards for screaming. I thought that was the one thing you didn't need title cards for?
2. Pianos playing sweeping up and down notes. Music majors: is that what piano players did in the theaters when stuff blew up?
It does make me want to see some Buster Keaton films.
I also want to see a 1940's version of this, but there's no way you'll find actors that look good enough to convince us that they belong in 1940's Hollywood.
