Should there have been more sex and violence?

[KirkusOveractus]

Perhaps a better question to ask: Should there have been a better story?

yes.

and anyone who says otherwise is just trying stubbornly to be "Right" about this movie

No, anyone who says otherwise just has a different opinion about the movie, and is allowed to have one.

Isn't there enough adult programming out there without polluting Star Trek with it? I mean turn the channels and you can see about anything you want. C'mon people, leave Trek alone..let it be the family entertainment icon..the more sex and violence you add the more you raise the rating and the more of your audience you alienate which means less $$ and I don't think Paramount wants to risk that seeing the theaters are not having a great time in earning $$..they have to watch their pennies and spend them wisely and alienating your audience is not the way to go, you want MORE people to see it, not less.
