Rank Trek XI

I gave it a 3 based upon what I have heard. The only reason it merited a 3 was that it is Star Trek and that name alone bears weight in my heart.

Let the TOS era remain a legend. I think JJ and crew are realy frakking Star Trek up.
 
is this a poll for the clairvoyant?

anyone who is able to answer this...can you tell me what the california lottery numbers are for the next few weeks too?
 
I saw it. Very strange movie. All the stars seemed to have gone out and all the ships were cloaked. It was pitch black in every room of the ship and at all locations and everyone in the cast was a deaf mute. Combine that with the fact that the music soundtrack was incredibly, awe-inspiringly minimalist... virtually unnoticeable. I sat there watching for two hours, and I have to say it just plain sucked.
 
I just got back from watching it.

Thank God Shatner was really in it after all. Seeing him and Spock together after all these years brought tears to my eyes. That "de-aging" CGI is amazing shit. And NONE of us thought of what Abrams and his writers did to get around Kirk's death. Amazing.

As for the young Kirk and Spock...man, they're going to hopefully come into their roles a little more in the next film. Though the guy who played Kirk was really surprising. A mix of Shatner and Nathan Fillion. Brilliant.

I loved what they did with the Enterprise and how we saw her from her first launch with a young Kirk watching, and then the ceremony years later when Pike handed over the symbolic sword as a symbol of command change. Just great stuff.

And when they first showed us the bridge of the Enterprise when the TOS era of the movie began...chills and more tears.

Finally, all this movie needed with Jerry Goldsmith. Too bad they couldn't get Joel to do it...

Solid A rating.
 
Clym failed to label any of the options between "awful" and "good," which made this difficult.

Since I happen to know through my own psychic powers that Clym meant to label option #4 "Better than the kind of movie that the fans kept saying they wanted," I had to vote at least a "10." :cool:
 
Spaceballs II? :guffaw: REALLY?

I dunno, I might bet heavily on that one. The prequels BEG to be ridiculed. Lucas has done half of Brooks' job for him already.
 
I thought the Picard clone was stupid.

X"I" is a typo, right?

No?

Maybe?

Alright, alright. As someone who can predict the quality of future movies based on the quality and performance of trek movies that were made in the 1980s, I believe Trek XI will be a 9.566 Which on this poll rounds to a 10.000.

I keep meaning to go see it, but I'd have to recalibrate the matter/antimatter intermix chamber to provide enough shield power to survive the slingshot around the sun, and that would take up the whole weekend. I mean, I could go back to the beginning of the weekend when I went back, but it's the principle of the thing...
 
Finally, they made technobabble easy to understand!

However, I didn't get the point of Kirk's pet iguana. Although, Spock trying to feed it was funny.

"No, Spock. Other end!"
