Is Star Trek XI TOO awesome?

[ancient]

I was excited about this movie, but y'know, I'm starting to think it's a little too awesome. Star Trek shouldn't be awesome.

It should have only one style: The style desired by the true fans of Trek, The style of Fanon Treknobabble. This movie is disregarding a lot of dearly loved fanon assumptions. Dearly loved by an overwhelming 5% of Trek fans. Worse, it even violates a few ideas Roddenberry mentioned once or twice but never bothered to actually show anywhere in Trek. It's ignoring minor characters that only appeared once. That's totally unreasonable.

Magic treknology is not working the way it should in these trailers!

There appears to be just too much awesomeness in this movie. Frankly, that means we fans are getting the shaft.

Damn you for giving us the classic Trek characters again, Abrams! And to think we could've seen the further adventures of Captain Chakotay and the USS WUNDERTECH. Sigh.

Anyway, what say you? Is STXI too awesome for us?

We're unworthy!

If it's "too awesome" you guys may not hear from me after I see it. I might be dead from its pure awesomeness.

That will be the top story of 2009. I can see the headlines now. "STAR TREK KILLS THOUSANDS BY SHEER AWESOMENESS."

I had to go with the clearly always correct alternative:

The Women!

 

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

Trek needed some awesome cool!

 

[Augustus]

THE WOMEN!!!!!

This movie is too awesome to be called Star Trek, a new name should be given, in light of its awesomeness.

I think you hit the head right on the nail. This movie is too "teh awesome". Its kinda like both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight all rolled into one. I cant wait till this is the biggest movie of the summer and all the cry-babies have nothing to say...except, I agree. It is Teh Awesome...

This movie is too awesome to be called Star Trek, a new name should be given, in light of its awesomeness.

I vote we name it "Awesome Trek: The Motherfucking Motion Picture"

And it certainly looks like there is some MOTION to this MOTION PICTURE!

(Hey, I liked TMP as much as the other guy... but come on, let's not have on rose-colored specs.)

 

[Timofnine]

I think that it will be far better then plain awesome, I think that it will be truly awefull!

 

[seigezunt]

Not TOO awesome, but Teh Awesome.

1) The pace of the film doesn't appear to be plodding.

2) I didn't spot nearly enough middle-aged or elderly television actors.

3) The Enterprise appeared to be moving quite fast in a number of scenes.


This is not the Star Trek I grew up with.

 

[ancient]

Of course not. This movie is just too damn awesome. It may even be the feared and reviled "teh" awesome.

I had to go with the clearly always correct alternative:

The Women!

Don't blame me when you get them cooties...

...eh, it's worth it.

 

[RoJoHen]

I am fully prepared for my brain to explode from how awesome this movie is.

I suggest everyone saves their empty popcorn buckets to help with the brain clean-up.

 

[Captain Zog]

No offence to the OP, but the idea that a movie can be TOO AWESOME is ludicrous in the extreme. I want this film to be awesome. I want it to be bloody awesome!

I guess no humor is TOO obvious.

Now go and vote for the women before it's too late!

This movie oozes Awesome

You couldn't fit more Awesome into it without the galaxy imploding in on itself
