As someone who has been called a troll often enough over the last 11 years, let me offer my perspective. The real trolls will reveal themselves with a lot of anger.

And I stopped watching the star trek movies after the whale one, star trek IV I believe. (It was a funny movie, loved the Vulcan nerve pinch on the mohawk guy on the bus)
