I thought the last one completely Sucked.
The ridiculous so-called “plot”, The lousy special effects, The HORRIBLE sets, The lens flare EVERYWHERE, The new Scotty, Sulu, Spock, The lens-flared Apple store bridge, The Budweiser Brewery engineering (I swear i saw a cinder block wall..)
Almost everything about it except maybe the casting of Bones.

“J.J.” is a HACK

I’ll probably wait for this one on Blu-ray come this August.

Faux Trek.

And the guy that played McCoy looks too much like the actor that played Gary Mitchell.

Abrams’ Star Trek is dreadful, not just because it screws up (”reboots”) Star Trek, but because the movie was horrible in its own right. I watched it a second time as its own story and SF series. Wouldn’t matter what context you filmed this in, the story stank on ice.

I can’t imagine Abrams doing any better with this one.

Problem is, my wife likes the Star Trek reboot.

It is almost unimaginable how anyone could have watched the last Star Trek movie and thought it was bad in comparison to any original Star Trek anything. Star Trek the original series and most of the movies were low budget, over/poorly acted, poorly scripted, poorly directed, paeans to socialism. While the last Star Trek movie was hardly a paragon of movie making it was better than anything that the franchise had ever made previously. This is like listening to someone go on about how Tim Burtons Bat Man was preferable to Nolans Batman because it captured the feel of the (horrible, execrable, ambiguously gay) TV series better.

I get that people want to be nostalgic about their childhood TV series but please be rational.
