Merging with the no-spoiler review and discussion thread -- stand by...
Re: Advance screening/World Premiere discussions [the NO-SPOILERS vers
funny that you ask because last night we saw the opening sequence of TWOK right before the beginning of the new movie.
The music is not as good. There is a sense of majesty and wonder in the Goldsmith/Horner score that is hard to recreate.
That said, the music is excellent and complements the film well. Perhaps it was just less memorable than the old scores.
I mentioned elsewhere that it's very Sturm und Drang at times... and I continue to think that's accurate.

I didn't mean for these questions to come across as negatively as they do, but I am serious about seeking answers to those questions. The reason being is that the rest of the movie looks so good, I want to know if those particular parts actually work or if they are the low points of an otherwise very good movie?
Re: Advance screening/World Premiere discussions [the NO-SPOILERS vers
I like this thread so much more than the spoiler thread.
Cliff scene: It sets up this kind of adolescent, rebellious character and offers a cultural touchstone with the contemporary world.
What's funny is that each element in the scene is dated even by modern standards, a choice that is appropriate. I think I would have hated the scene had they chosen some 2009 car and 2009 song to play. Mixing up the future with our past worked for me.
The ice planet totally makes sense. That works.

Thank you very kindly!

Trekmovie has video of what happened in Austin. It really brings tears to my eyes to see Nimoy walk up on stage and experience the surprise and awe that those of you who were there must have felt.
You can see video of the event (not the movie though
) here.

My review for the new trek, amazing. JJ Abrams got a standing ovation and handshakes from some paramount execs who were also at the premiere in Sydney, my Dad, 65, who was a fan of only the original series came out and said he couldn't see any trek fan seeing it and not liking it. One thing for all of you who have remained spoiler free, like I did. Hang tough and avoid that spoiler thread, this film needs to be seen and experienced, it will be well worth it in a month. I know have to go and find out how I can get tickets to the midnight screening, I have to wait a whole month before I can see it again.

'cos like Cubbie said... they're weak, so very, VERY weak.
(like yours truly).
Yeah, I'm avoiding the spoilers thread, myself. I can't believe all the views it's getting--why do so many people actually want to be spoiled?

Just be thankful they are keeping it discrete so far.
Pretty soon though, you can bet people will start posting huge spoilers in threads without warning, or, even worse, in the actual thread titles. I'm going to have to stop my visits here when that happens.
