I feel VERY Cheated. I went to see how kirk, spock and everyone else met, what happened in starfleet academy etc and what I got was an alternate reality . .. so I did not get to see what I wanted to see. Do I throw away my star trek dvds now?

Incredible how horrible this movie was . .

DALLAS!!!!
Does anyone else feel that, since the timeline has now been effectively wiped out, everything we’ve watched TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager, etc. have been erased? Does anyone else feel cheated by this? I mean, if they wanted to reboot the franchise, why didn’t they do just that? Why did they need the reason to justify themselves by introducing another time travel episode? I feel as if Bobby has just stepped out of the shower, or they’ve just collectively jumped the shark!

When Roddenberry [creator] died, there goes Star Trek down the tubes. The quality, characters, everything was cheapened for a quick buck. Quality job none! Soap Trek, the Last episode! Didn’t JJ Abrams know that the original has a following? Can you say Racial stereotyping!!!! Pitiful.

Completely disappointed! I have been waiting for this to come out forever. I was anticipating an epic sci fi drama similar to the first Star Wars. I was hoping that this movie would redeem star trek from the previous movie attempts but there was no real storyline, the Ramulons were boring and the most irritating part is that they showed all of the compelling parts of the film in the trailer. Really freakin lame and I paid $18 to see it at the Imax.

This movie was not good though i was not disappointed since I had low expectations from JJ Jewface. JJ did exactly what he does best. Takes a weak screenplay, spends allot of money on special effects adds some sex and tada you have another film just like all the others. the title or plot (if they bothered to include one) of the film is moot it will be just like every other film JJ Jewface is involved in. If JJ had remade Bonanza it would be very similar to star trek as would his remake of gone with the wind… But Frankly I dont give a dam!

LOL. What’s up with you guys? “Oh no, you were speaking for me, and that annoys the hell out of me, I’m going to kill a kitten!” Why do you care what somebody else says?

Little do they remember our heated debate over Romulan liquor labels in The Wrath of Kahn! ;)

Just a side note about the yellow “pipes,” not that anybody cares (from the posts here, it seems you either hate the whole idea or are not concerned about how engineering looks), they are not pipes for transport of liquid per se, but structural tubing, which is probably as scientifically accurate as anything. Welded tubes are a space efficient and structurally sound way to support a large open structure, such as perhaps the engineering section of a starship. Of course, there are actual pipes in the scene as well, but they appear to be stainless steel or somesuch.

Getting down to it: If you don’t think a redressed brewery is credible as the engineering section, that’s cool. We can agree to disagree. I think it’s fine, and if it really was an effort to save costs, I’m please with where the money was spent, so I have no complaint. The E looks great, the bridge looks great, clearly no expense was spared in the visual effects.

But red bussard collectors versus blue? Are you freaking kidding me? Who ACTUALLY cares? One thing’s for damn sure, I am a hardcore Trekker, at least by my definition and the definitions of the people I know, and it doesn’t bother me one whit if the front of the nacelles is blue. It looks good to me.

Let’s sum up: I am a hardcore fan, and I am not pissed off by the Enterprise’s nacelles or any other damn change. What pisses me off is other folks ranting like a child and speaking for me. So don’t. 158, 161, etc.

And Sean is, and has always been, his own man. Just because he happens to share some of my opinions (but certainly not all of them), doesn’t mean he is somehow striving to be like me. Sean comes to conclusions very much on his own.
