Star Trek XI - Will Simply be Awesome - It's about time!
- Thread starter Hello It's Me!
- Start date
agreed. i admit to being a bit wary myself but i hope its great!No, but you have to admit that there are others who feels that way.did i say anything in my post that indicated that it would be awful?
The film could very well suck, but that trailer hooked me like any other action/adventure trailer.
I for one can't wait.
Generations wasn't the greatest movie ever, but I liked it, one of my favourites.
Nemesis was a bit of a confused jumble of kewl stuff that didn't make much sense to me, I still watch it from time to time though. It has its merits.
I have no time for insurection though, it was a change of pace from First Contact, but it just doesn't tickle my fancy.
So long as the wife enjoys the new film, and therefore didn't make her endure a rancid pile of cack, I shall be happy whatever.

So, basicaly, you didn't read what I said.
I said I take the BAD with the GOOD.
I do have plenty of critical thoughts on every iteration and form of
Star Trek and have even debated it heavily with friends
and associates and on these boards.
I just choose to keep that seperate from my enjoyment.
I can sit through every Trek series and movie and not one
thing will bother me and keep me from deeply enjoying it.
I am a Star Trek fan. I think a lot about Trek, each story I see and what
could have been done one way or the other and what made sense and what didn't.
But at the end of the day, well it already happened and I can't help it.
So I enjoy it for what it is. Another part of the Trek saga.
And so plain and simple I like Star Trek, and I get to enjoy all of it.
I like Star Trek, too, probably a bit more than I should. And overall, it is a great universe with a lot of potential. That's why I get annoyed with the crap that gets made under the 'franchise.' I also like good stories, done well, and Trek has not had an abundance of those in the last decade
Yeah, it's been said. Not everything that gets said is a good idea, though. Trek lives or dies by its reputation and its ability to attract enough interest to continue - so by definition, bad Trek is not better than no Trek - it's the reason for no Trek.
Eh, to each their own. I've seen Trek that isn't as good as SOME previous Trek, but nonetheless still Star Trek and still part of it all. So I enjoy.
Trek went away because it never changed much, and most people got bored with it.
Generations was AMAZING for an episode of TNG. As big budget movie it was a bit flat. The way they killed Kirk was idiotic. I could have come up with a better ending.
The only movie that was a "disgrace" was The Final Frontier. That movie was horrible, even if it were an episode. Surely the "Spock's Brain" or "Shades of Gray" of all the movies.

What was wrong with those episodes? And for that matter Final Frontier? I keep hearing these things suck but never a decent reason why outside of personal preference, because that's really the only deciding factor.
Star Trek the original movie was a horror show...Could have killed the Franchise. TWOK saved the day
Anyone have an original version of TMP? I can't stand the butchered "Directors Cut" version.
I am expecting this movie to rank up there with TWOK. I believe that Zachary Quinto (Sylar) as spock will be special...
. I may or may not like kirk as much but if he overacts like shatner that might be cool, in a down memory lane kinda way.

Although I expect Pegg will be a hoot and a half as well.

I think they all look good in the roles, but the one I am liking more everyday is Urban as McCoy, he just seems to have it down perfect in the trailer and then his interviews are all very good.

i agree. i think greenwood was an excellent choice to play pike.he kinda has that jeffrey hunter look going on.i can't wait to see him in that role. btw, pegg is funny as hell.
I daresay that the new McCoy is kinda hot.
She was "Shag" only in the pilot episode, then "Shad" for the series proper.
Maybe her middle initial also changed from "R" to "T"?

It's available for download on iTunes. The theatrical, not the "Special Longer Version" nor the DVD DE.
Forgive me for trying to bottom line this movie...I guess I am. It just feels like something big, huge and fun is about to happen to the franchise...So I am very optimistic...
