You’re right VZX. There are some movies out there that don’t work in 3D, I’ve seen some of them.

But knowing myself, I’d probably watch it in both versions 3D and 2D just so I can see the difference. I’d probably watch it 2D first just in case 3D sucks.

Well, I doubt I’ll be watching it in 3-D. Every post-converted 3-D movie I saw sucked. I’ll save my money and watch it the way it was shot.

Anyway, I agree that I hope that there are far less lens flares in this one. After re-watching the 2009 movie recently, the lens flares just really stuck out. It was most apparent on the bridge. It got me thinking: why do they put soooo many lights on the bridge? It is kinda dumb, with all those lights shooting right at the crew at eye level.

I with you #802. I love this movie and no amount of complaints or “issues” that others may say this movie has I still love it. I believe with time whatever “issues” were in the first movie will be hammered out the second and hopefully third time around.

I love all the actors especially Zach as Spock. And you can’t go wrong with the look of the movie. It’s beautiful…I will say though that while I’m not much of a complainer, the flaring lights in the movie would make me squint a lot. I’d prefer if there wasn’t too much of that this time around.

Overall it’s one of the best Star Trek movies out there and many will stand by that statement. I trust JJ and I want him to succeed and surpass what he’s already done.

And to be honest most of the haters will be there on opening night buying 3D glasses along with the rest of us so whatever.

I loved the 2009 movie – I loved the changes, the designs. I loved that Chekov now speaks with an actual russian accent (except for the “w”s).
Every actor has such fun, they ham it up in the most delicious manner.

Very refreshing after 30 years of increasingly same old, same old. TOS did something fresh, TAS looked horrible, but had the same solid group of sci-fi writers on board. TNG was a delight, albeit one that became a bit stale during its 7 year run. DS9 brought grit, commerce and dirty politics into the ST universe – again, 7 seasons was stretching it a bit too much.
Voyager simply gave me a nosebleed, rigid status quo for 7 seasons – poor actors, they had nothing to play with. Enterprise surprised me a few times, liked the relative low tech approach and the sense of aliens being aliens.
It had just begun to pop when they killed it. Ah well.

JJ’s take is a breath of fresh air, and I can’t wait to see what’ll happen in the next one.

I liked many parts of the movie, but really disliked some others. I still watch it multiple times, though.

Let’s just hope that the sequel can catch that “lightning in the bottle” again. Here’s hoping…

The new Trek movie is what brought me into the Trek universe. I loved the humor, the action, tragedy and romance. I enjoyed seeing each character have their moments and watch them begin the formation of the crew and family they will become. I have started watching TOS and am beginning to appreciate some of the good messages there. I also get an occasional good laugh out of the costumes and make-up.

I got a long way to go to fully understand Star Trek, and while I doubt I’ll ever be considered a Trekkie/Trekker I plan to have fun, especially with these new films and characters.

By the way, if Mr. Orci ever sees this, I LOVE Spock/Uhura! Its so wonderfully refreshing to see love without the over the top, dramatic fluffiness. Thank you. :-)

As an original “trekkie” going back to the original series, I noticed several anomalies in this latest adventure in the “Star Trek” series of feature length films. The first thing I noticed was that I felt Zoe Saldana was mis-cast as Uhura. Nichelle Nichols, the original Uhura, was a fairly well endowed actress with either C or possibly D breasts, unlike Saldana, who only has B cups. The second thing I noticed was that in this latest movie, Spock’s mother was killed when planet Vulcan was destroyed. Now those of us who remember the original series know that Jane Wyatt played Spock’s mother, and she was very much alive and well, appearing in several episodes of the original series. However, I realize that only the death of Spock’s mother could evoke the necessary anger to allow Kirk to take over as captain of the Enterprise. Just seeing his planet destroyed probably would not have been enough to anger his Vulcan disciplined mind. The third thing I noticed was that the Romulans in this movie didn’t have the same pointed ears as their “distant relatives” the Vulcans. To the best of my recollection, in all other “Star Trek” TV and feature films the Romulans look quite similar to Vulcans. There may be other anomalies that I haven’t discovered yet, but for the most part, I found this latest movie to be very enjoyable and entertaining. I recommend it to any “Star Trek” fan.

Looking forward to the next sequel. Better script and better story needed.
Let’s have a more grown up Star Trek please. SFX do not make a good movie it will only enhance a great story. More Spock/McCoy interaction and solid script. Would be nice to see Nimoy again too (although I don’t think there is much chance).

I LOVED IT!!! It was one of the best Star Trek movies yet! But what was with Spock kissing Uhura? Plus, she didn’t have the same look as the original Uhura…
