That surprises me. I liked the first and second (sorry Ace) but I've had zero interest in the trailers so far.

Looked pretty awful, so I guess this is a good sign

Can we start these threads using Metacritic now?

I just rewatched Star Trek the Undiscovered Country.

None of these new movies are Star Trek...at all. Not even close.

It's like 90210 meets Hunger Games meets Star Wars meets Bazooka Joe bubble-gum.

Star Trek TMP trailer

Then look at the trailers for the reboots, you don't even have to see the movies to know it's not the same universe.

It's not just age or dumbing down Star Trek for teenagers...the vibe and approach is 100% different.

The reboots have been hit or miss we me. I didn't like ST09 - I thought the time travel was dumb and wasnt interested in the origin story.

I like Into Darkness, though. Although it had a lot of dumb, eye roll moments.

Expecting garbage. Star Trek has had too much success lately, time to return to its typical bullshite normality.

They have one good film, and then a couple movies later its all shite again.

This one looks pretty decent. I really enjoyed the first one. The second one was just ok. I may go and see this if I can convince some friends to not see it without me.

I liked it. It's definitely the best of the Nu-Trek movies.

There's some real humor in this one. And the stakes are more along the lines of the original series, which I like.

I have to admit, I enjoyed the movie a lot more than Part 2 or the first one. Sure it's absurd but that is Star Trek in a nut shell.

I do like the FU it gave to Sci Fi in general and how a Star Base REALLY look like. The little water down one form the T.V series could be seen as place holders.

I like how the show the Defensive size of the Federation, the strength of the federation it's ingenuity and it's every day life.

The interaction was find, I was kind of skeptical about the new Alien girl who seem weird and fake as hell but she ended up being my favorite character.

The ending sequences is par for the Course in Star Trek rather than taking Classical music they use something else. That also added a human element for me.

Over all 8/10.

- 2 for the Enterprise getting totaled again.

Oh on another note, at least we get to see the Enterprise put up SOME sort of a fight this time.

My neighbor who is a die hard movie nerd said with the very strong Thursday numbers Star Trek will easily do $80+ million this weekend. I saw it this morning.. was a LOT better than Into Darkness and definitely more fun. This is a film audiences can go for right now and I think it will have a very strong second week around $50 million.

I enjoyed it highly. There were some absurd moments that the filmmakers were hoping would be overlooked, like Jayla jumping tp meet Kirk in the badass be jump, despite not necessarily even being famiar with the tech and certainly not "in" on kirks plan.

Spoiler: why were the "bees" just disintegrating from the radio interference? They made it seem like they would all start running into each other and blow up, but we know that the swarm ships can be controlled manually. It was highly entertaining visually, but didn't make a whole lot of sense imo
