STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS - Grading & Discussion [SPOILERS]

[Belz...]

This forum would be so much nicer if everyone could just accept that others have a different opinion about wether or not this was a good film.

This forum ? The WORLD would be much nicher if that happened.

 

[Belz...]

made the 23rd century way too contemporary

As opposed to miniskirts and hippies in TOS ?

Young, inexperienced people often make poor decisions. Kirk also executed Chang in The Undiscovered Country. After obviously crippling the Bird-of-Prey, he didn't even offer surrender as an option.

Yeah but that was ok because it was real Trek.

Star Trek Into Darkness conveyed a message just fine.

What message would that be?

Executing people without a trial is bad. Friendship is good. Stupid laws are stupid, etc.

 

[Ovation]

Star Trek Into Darkness conveyed a message just fine.

What message would that be?

Revenge is not a sound basis for foreign policy.

The execution of someone without a trial is wrong.

Hubris (thinking someone like Khan is controllable and manageable) is usually a recipe for disaster.

There are surely others.

 

[Set Harth]

Never trust a Vulcan.

I figured I'd start small. But seriously, for fans of a show that promotes peace amongst mankind, you'd think they'd be more tolerant towards eachother.

For some of us, IDIC is more of a journey than a destination.

 

[Ryan8bit]

The execution message in STID was a good one. It made up for them executing Nero in the first movie. And yeah, it was an execution. Any kind of battling was over and they were communicating.

Nah. I don't think combat works that way.

 

[Neumann]

I loved the movie, seen it twice already.

And by the poll, it seems that most of us like this movie a lot!

But... the massive ship, despite its damage, was drifting into a known time travel phenomenon. A pre-emptive strike during a time of war.

I'd avoid the Neutral Zone forum if I were you. Just sayin'...

Eh, it's a bit dull at the moment, but it's not so bad.

The Neutral Zone is awesome. I love the anything goes format.

You fear what you do not understand...

I guess I can't see that part of the forum.

Must be.

 

[Keith1701]

A-

 

[Borgminister]

Finally got around to voting... solid A. Lacked a classic scene like the intro to Star Trek '09, otherwise would've gotten that plus, alhough Pike dying came close to evoking that ultimate grade.

 

[Data girl]

I thought it was dark but not as good as my fave first contact
