(Can you name the movie reference?)
Yes! Secret of Andalantis is updated! After a ridiculous ammount of time! Thanks to Emeral Bookwise for giving this, admitedly short, chapter a looksie before it was published. I was able to do a few modifications that helped the story flow a little bit better.
I've left you guys hanging for so long, and I truly apologize for it. It's not the full chapter I wanted to release(more like half of it really), but I couldn't wait anymore. Between the holidays, those two weeks I had to do twelve hour shift, a cold, writer's block and general procrastination (lots of good story kept updating! Arg!), it had been way too long since I dove under the waves!
So here it is! Hope you enjoy it :D

Galaxy Quest! Yes!
Happy the new chapter's out.
The second-best Star Trek movie to come out in the 90s/2000s? (Seriously - I've never met a Star Trek fan who won't agree to list it as part of the Trek movie canon)
The main reason why I like Galaxy Quest is that you can use it to keep the even/odd thing going for Trek movies, since it came out between Insurrection and Nemesis and can therefore be counted as Trek 10.
1. Star Trek: The Motion Picture
2. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
3. Star Trek III: the Search for Spock
4. Star Trek IV: the Voyage Home
5. Star Trek V: The Final Frontier
6. Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
7. Star Trek: Generations
8. Star Trek: First Contact
9. Star Trek: Insurrection
10. Galaxy Quest
11. Star Trek: Nemesis
12. Star Trek 2009
So Into Darkness, by this logic, will suck. But will it suck hard, like Final Frontier, or will it be nevertheless watchable and even enjoyable, like Search for Spock or Generations?

Ooh, I really like how slotting Galaxy Quest in there off-sets the double fail of Insurrection and Nemesis. Regrettably the pattern still doesn't hold to me because I can't list 2009 as one of the good movies (better than Nemesis, ~maybe~, but that's not hard). It certainly tried to hit it big with heaploads of both nostalgia and grand spectacle, but that's not enough to gloss over all the illogical head bangers. I can't even rank it as "watchable and even enjoyable".
That's fine for me though because I can essentially consider 2009 the start of a whole new cycle, and both Motion Picture and Generations teach us that these cycles always stumble with the first installment. I'm actually hoping for better things from Into Darkness, and part of me would like to say it will be automatically awesome by comparison because it's impossible for it to be any worse. Too bad the TF film franchise has taught me that things can ALWAYS get worse.
