I saw it tonight. It sucked.

Well the dune buggy scene was better than piloting the shuttle through the corridors of the Romulan ship. Whoever dreamed up was definitely on the crack... :brickwall:

Yeah, they made it pretty obvious too. Especially when Kirk's rang with the Nokia tune.

What about the scene when he uses Priceline.Com to get cheaper Transporter rates? Geez.
They had to write Shatner into the script somehow.

You must have missed the scene when Kirk is being courts martialed and he's defended by Denny Crane.

I still can't believe they retconned Samuel T. Cogley and changed him from a defense attorney into the original captain of the NX-01! :mad:

I can't believe how they "saved" the Avian Xindii. Can we give it a rest? You can't bring back a whole species only to kill them with quadrotriticaley poisoning only to bring them back with Janeway's "reset" button.

My only other gripe was John Dimaggio's "Scotty". All I could hear was "Bender". Although the flaming belches were cool.

naw, I kept hearing Wakka

But I think the Blitzball was an obvious attempt to make a bad sports game tie-in.
 
^ That wasn't as bad as trying to make us believe that with a directed energy weapon you can have "bullet time" and dodge the beam by running up a wall....
 
I was pissed that Kirk didn't get his shirt rpped off when he fought Borax the Brave on Khitomer at the climax of the film. Kirk fights a Klingon and his uniform top doesn't rip? Blasphemy!
 
What did everyone think of casting Will Ferrell as the Mugato? A good choice, or was it too tongue-in-cheek a reference to Zoolander?

Personally, I thought he did okay, but the horn on his head was obviously CGI.

I don't have the quote handy but he actually had it surgically attached so as NOT to look CG. I hope this doesn't become a bone of contention for the next 20 years. :rolleyes:
 
Britney Spears as a Orion Slave Girl? That sucked more than her appearence at the music video awards this week.

Well, the chocobo chase scene was just stupid. It's Trek, they should not be riding giant chickens through the corridors. Though having mccoy dive out of the way was kinda funny.

Another thing -- Why is the Enterprise using Windows Vista? I though the computer talked?
 
^ The computer did talk, remember? Every single time Kirk gave it an order, it would ask if he was sure he trusted the program he was about to run.
 
I was wondering why Uhura didn't have the earpiece, but a wireless mouse....

Back to the chicken thing, it was a nice touch to have one of the chickens kind of Borgified as a nod to Robot Chicken. Afterall without their toys/action figures they would have never been able to do that desert cantina scene...
 
I think the casting director was confused. Apparently he thought they were casting for Jack McCoy. That's why Sam Waterston played Bones even though he's about 40 years too old for what he was supposed to be in the movie.
 
I actually liked the musical numbers they managed to work in! Kirk was so sweet teaching those poor motherless children the "Do-Ra-Me" song ("Doe a dear a female dear, Ray a golden drop of sun..."). I admit I did think the "My Favorite Things" song was really strange to hear coming from Shatner.
 
^ That was Bono :cardie:

And if you looked closely, Nurse Chapel was the Edge. Larry Mullen played the warp reactor and Adam Clayton played the tribble.
