So ARE you going to watch the movie?

I might have to go to a midnight screening, and I very rarely ever do that.
After seeing the recent trailer I have going to have to say no. Not in the theaters nor when it comes out in Blu-ray. I have decided to ditch Star Trek after growing up being an avid fan of the franchise. I look forward only to see some new blood in the scifi media landscape.
Yessir, I will!
I don't know where I'll be living then, but hopefully it'll be a cosmopolitan enough place to have a bunch of Trekkers to go with, too.
If I could survive Phantom Menace in theaters as a Star Wars fan (and I even dressed up for that one), this movie won't put a dent in my pride.
I hope.

Don't let the sell-outs here dissuade or insult you because you have some integrity.
I'm with you; the Star Trek we once knew is dead.
Maybe it died with Enterprise or NEM, or maybe it's dying with Nimoy selling out to be in this Dawson's Creek Trek crap that is everything that's wrong with today's movie-making: style over substance, action over character, and shock value over logic and good writing.
Not to mention that this film is going to say "fuck off!" to every fan of the past forty-plus years by changing continuity to this "NuTrek" monstrosity that I have a strong feeling won't make it past this film.
Then, hopefully, Trek can lay fallow for a very long time and one day return with someone at the helm who actually loves and respects the material (Abrams admits he never "liked" or "got" Star Trek).
And for the record for the spineless apologists, I was fully prepared to give this film a chance. Then I saw the Enterprise, read the scene descriptions, and saw that abomination of a trailer.
\S/
If I miss it, I'd better be dead... or in jail... And if I'm in jail, I'll break out!
I'll be there for the midnight showing, and then likely a few more times after that over the following weeks.

Yes. I wasn't interested in watching Admiral Janeway at all.
However, I've since seen Nemesis on DVD, so it's not all good news.

Of course I'll watch it. Once at the cinema. Then I'll buy it on DVD. 
I am a Trekkie after all. Gotta complete my Trek movie collection.

Yes, at least once. More if it is really good.
So GTFO and don't watch it. "Negotiations?" You've got to be FUCKING KIDDING ME.

Vice Admiral
I'm willing to negotiate. I will give him --zero--!So GTFO and don't watch it. "Negotiations?" You've got to be FUCKING KIDDING ME.
How's that?
Hey everyone. I'm sorry if my question wasn't clear, I meant whether or not you ever plan to see this movie, be it in the theatre or on DVD or whatever. I just wanted to see who was "pro-movie" and "anti-movie"
A question for those who have decided they don't want to see this movie, and I DON'T mean this as a veiled criticism or anything: Why are you posting here complaining about the movie you have no plans to even see? I had heard Nemesis was bad and so I didn't go see it. I didn't complain in the Nemesis forum, or even post in it. I just didn't have anything to do with it until I caught the last 20 minutes or so on tv a few months ago.
If you're worried it'll "mess up continuity" or what not, then just ignore the movie. In a fictional universe you're allowed to do that. No one's forcing you to watch it, so why be bothered by something you have no plans to see? I thought the third Austin Powers was bad, but I'm not hung up on it, and it didn't ruin Austin Powers 1 for me at all.
Again, I don't mean for this to be negative or anything and please don't turn my thread into a flame war over it. I'm just wondering why there's all this fuss over something that's voluntary.
