Hi, i can't find the full length reaction for this one, is it missing?

2025-02-25 02:41:31 +0000 UTC@Clay But he doesn't re-invigorate them, he turns them into dumb popcorn fodder for a mass audience, which I'll admit does initially have broad appeal, but after you've turned them into that, and used up all the hard-earned goodwill for the IP, there's nowhere else to go

2024-12-25 20:17:33 +0000 UTC@Clay - I love how you intentionally don't hear the argument so you can scream "blinded by hate". The "old timers" are saying Trek used to be black cherry ice cream- kinda niche, but the people who love it really love it- and Abrams (and Kutzman) made Trek vanilla- nothing special, just the plain flavor everyone likes. The same can be applied to all the "nerd culture" that became mainstream slop. Star Wars, D&D, Marvel, etc.

2024-12-25 14:26:09 +0000 UTCI will go with the 501,000 users at IMDb who gave Into Darkness an avg rating of 7.7 over your so-called actual Trekkies any day. 1. IMDb 7.9, Metacritic 82%, RT 94% (audience 91%) – Star Trek (2009) 2. IMDb 7.7, Metacritic 68%, RT 86% (audience 90%) – ST II (1982) 3. IMDb 7.7, Metacritic 72%, RT 84% (audience 89%) – ST Into Darkness (2013) 4. IMDb 7.6, Metacritic 70%, RT 93% (audience 89%) – First Contact (1996) 5.

IMDb 5.5, Metacritic 43%, RT 23% (audience 24%) – ST V (1989) The majority of established Trek fans or Trekkies like Star Trek (2009) and Into Darkness (2013), and are grateful how Star Trek (2009) and Into Darkness (2013) reinvigorated the franchise. It is only a bitter and vocal tiny minority of Trek fans who whine incessantly about the reboots and JJ Abrams. Old timers resistant to change for the sake of being resistant to change -- their mantra. Not about constructive criticism (which there is room for that) but instead whiners set in their ways and blinded by hate -- and incapable of any objectivity. The type of fans that William Shatner made fun of.

2024-12-25 13:36:13 +0000 UTCStar Trek Into Darkness was voted worst Trek movie ever by actual Trekkies; The film was absolutely terrible in it's own right, and a disgrace to the Star Trek brand. I don't 'hate' JarJar because he's successful, I dislike his films because he's the Michael Bay of his generation and it's a demonstrable fact he has been terrible for Trek and Star Wars long term. He hasn't directed anything in 5 years since the abysmal Star Wars sequel trilogy and his Bad Reboot studio is a joke
Neighbourhood Watch Alliance
2024-12-25 13:11:01 +0000 UTCI fully expect the next JJ Abrams trek movie will reveal the first three movies were just Spock's dream after being knocked out by a Cloverfield monster.
Shadowlord
2024-12-25 02:40:28 +0000 UTCDo your research. He was an executive producer on both "Westworld" AND the remake of "Presumed Innocent" on Apple TV+, which was an amazing show. Don't hate him because he's successful. Abrams is one of the few names that I will be willing to see a movie by without even knowing anything about the movie (Alex Garland, Nolan, Villeneuve, Panos Cosmatos). He's absolutely in-demand when it comes to rejuvenating a franchise. Want to know why "Star Trek: Beyond" sucked compared to the first two? I'll give you one guess. Look who directed the first two versus the third one.

2024-12-24 07:47:58 +0000 UTCIn a fine display of holiday traditions, the Holiday Armadillo makes an appearance in Friends (S07E10). :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fUjAps9SsU
Happy Hanukkah
2024-12-23 21:28:34 +0000 UTCWhat's that one with the Holiday Armadillo? I wanna say there was an epic arm wrestle in it.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-23 20:46:09 +0000 UTCAbrams kills IPs long-term by turning them into popcorn fodder. Also he cannot create anything new which is why he hasn't worked for ages after destroying Star Wars & Star Trek
Neighbourhood Watch Alliance
2024-12-23 14:19:08 +0000 UTCIn general, there are almost no Hanukkah movies in the style of the Christmas movie genre. First, because of the significantly smaller market, and second, because Hanukkah is a much less significant holiday in Judaism than Christmas is in Christianity or even among ex-Christians. I haven't seen the Seth Rogen movie (The Night Before, 2015), or the Adam Sandler animated one (Eight Crazy Nights, 2002). I did see The Hebrew Hammer (2003), an uneven blaxploitation parody. I was moderately entertained, but I don't remember it well enough to feel comfortable recommending it. (In particular, I can't remember how much it relies on "in-jokes".) But! Since the principal theme of Hanukkah is the victory of the few (Jews) against the oppressive many (Seleucid Greeks), then surely the quintessential Hanukkah movie would be 300 (2006)! :-P :-P :-P
Happy Hanukkah
2024-12-23 06:39:18 +0000 UTCAny favorite Hanukkah movies? Have heard the Seth Rogan one from a few years ago is pretty good. Haven't seen it though.
Chris Thom
2024-12-23 04:56:17 +0000 UTCI know Cassie said she wished they had the original Sarek, but the guy who played him in this movie, Ben Cross, was one of the two leads in Chariots of Fire, as he was the Jewish sprinter, Harold Abraham. Also, Anton Yelchin, who played Chekov in this, and Patrick Stewart were in an excellent film together called Green Room, which Cassie probably should never see, as it might ruin Patrick Stewart forever for her, and because it is incredibly violent. Fantastic movie though. Did Cassie recognize the actors playing the villain Nero (Eric Bana) and Bones (Karl Urban)? Karl Urban she'd know from the Lord of the Rings movies, as the long-haired horse lord of the Rohirrim, Eomer. Eric Bana was a major star for a while, and Cassie would probably at least know him from Munich, in which he was the lead character. It seemed like she recognized Zoe Saldana (Uhura), but in case not, she's played Gamora (with green skin) in all the Guardians of the Galaxy films. John Cho as Sulu has been in a lot of stuff, but I'm not sure what Cassie might have seen. He's probably best well known for playing Harold in Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle. It seemed like Cassie recognized Anton Yelchin, but I'm not sure what she would know him from, maybe the romantic movie Like Crazy? Or maybe Terminator Salvation? Or Alpha Dog (with Justin Timberlake)? I don't know.
Stranger2Reality
2024-12-23 04:52:39 +0000 UTCYeah people complain about JJ a lot, but fact is he brings in the audience like almost no other. For better or worse he breathes new life into a franchise.
Chris Thom
2024-12-23 04:51:13 +0000 UTCAgree that "juggernaut" may be too strong of a word. Also agree that Khan, Voyage, and ST (2009) all three were sucessful at the box office. Others (not you) harp about the reboots not performing well at the box office, which is simply not true. ST Beyond (2016) was the weakest but still made money. I think a 4th one would do well. Box Office Adjusted For Inflation -ST (2009). Domestic $352 mil. Worldwide $558 mil -ST Darkness (2013). Domestic $287 mil. Worldwide $623 mil -ST Beyond (2016). Domestic $194 mil. Worldwide $444 mil All previous ST movies are with lower US population. These domestic box office adjusted for inflation are excellent. -Voyage $293 million -Khan $242 million These domestic box office adjusted for inflation are good. -First Contact $172 million -Generations $149 million -Undiscovered Country $161 million As you might guess, the weakest domestic box office adjusted for inflation. -Nemesis $70 million -Insurrection $126 million -ST V $123 million

2024-12-23 04:20:00 +0000 UTCThank you. Merry Chrismas, Chris! :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8kfm72XNak
Happy Hanukkah
2024-12-23 03:44:46 +0000 UTC"Incredibly successful and profitable." Nobody said it wasn't. Well, it probably wasn't "incredibly" profitable, but good enough. "Are you saying that Khan and Voyage were not juggernauts?" Yes. They were just good movies, not "juggernauts". For instance Wrath, was the number 6 movie in '82, making about 1/4 the box office of the number one move (E.T.). Voyage was number 7, making less than half of the number one (Top Gun)
Mike Lemon
2024-12-23 02:44:13 +0000 UTCAre you saying that Khan and Voyage were not juggernauts? Star Trek (2009) was the seventh highest-grossing movie domestically of 2009. Incredibly successful and profitable.
Clay F
2024-12-23 02:22:54 +0000 UTCNow consider the U.S. population was 2/3 what it is now and you will see, like I said in the other thread, Khan and Voyage are comparable domestically. 2009 was not a "juggernaut" like you imply. As for the international box office, the China market wasn't really a thing in 1982.
Mike Lemon
2024-12-23 02:18:19 +0000 UTCThe Star Trek re-boots were box office juggernauts. JJ Abrams reached a larger audience. Star Trek (2009) sold more tickets at the box office than any previous ST movie. Also, Star Trek (2009) received the highest IMDb rating by users (and the most critical acclaim) of any Trek movie. *Star Trek (2009) Domestic Box Office = $257,730,000 -(adjusted for inflation = $351,555,000) Worldwide Box Office = $385,680,000 -(adjusted for inflation = $557,884,000) *Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982) Domestic Box Office = $79,708,000 -(adjusted for inflation = $241,707,000) Worldwide Box Office = $95,800,000 -(adjusted for inflation = $308,075,000) *Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986) Domestic Box Office = $109,713,000 -(adjusted for inflation = $292,901,000) Worldwide Box Office = $133,000,000 -(adjusted for inflation = $376,582,000) Source: movieweb.com/star-trek-movies-how-much-they-made/

2024-12-23 02:03:28 +0000 UTCSounds like there was a Cassie-esque figure looking over the script, or at a test-screening.

Chris Thom
2024-12-23 00:39:27 +0000 UTCThat's a good idea, Joe, but I need to add one provision. In the interests of closure for Cassie, she should definitely watch Season 3 of Picard. If she does that, she'll have had a nicely rounded experience within the storylines she's experienced. Once she's watched Picard, she could then put up a poll which has a simple Yes or No option. "Do you want more Trek on the channel or not?" I'm a fan so I would love to see all kinds of Trek on the channel till the end of time, but beyond Picard Season 3, I'm really ok with the majority vote.

2024-12-22 21:15:48 +0000 UTCClay. In the immortal words of Anton Yelchin, "I can do zat! I CAN DO ZAT!"
Clarence Newman
2024-12-22 20:52:32 +0000 UTCWhereas The Voyage Home was a huge BUS that took us all to the Cetacean Institute where we met two humpback whales called George and Gracie. To therefore sum up......Voyage Home ru-wels!
Clarence Newman
2024-12-22 16:11:34 +0000 UTCIf you look at the numbers, the Star Trek re-boots were not box-office juggernauts.
Joe
2024-12-22 15:39:46 +0000 UTCHey Cassie! I think this was brought up on the last live but here is the link to the Star Trek Unification fan made short film. This was Shatner and Nimoy estate approved and it is absolutely incredible. Hope you have the tissues handy. You'll need them for the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7NXvPfPYfU

2024-12-22 14:59:42 +0000 UTCI've never been a huge Trek fan. But it's still so much fun to watch the PiB reaction.
bgb1975
2024-12-22 12:05:12 +0000 UTCIt's great to see how much Cassie enjoyed this. It's a brilliant reboot of the original series. I think you'll like the sequels even better.
Sean
2024-12-21 23:28:53 +0000 UTCVoyage Home ru-wels!
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 21:19:52 +0000 UTC"Star Trek (2009) dwarfed previous Trek movies." Not really. Wrath of Khan and Voyage Home were fairly comparable domestically. Yes, 2009 earned way more absolute dollars and had a much larger foreign market take, but that is comparing apples and kiwi fruit.
Mike Lemon
2024-12-21 19:46:10 +0000 UTCPoor Storyline, more like a video game.Prefer the original Star Trek and Next Generation. Watched the original as a kid in the 70s, only thing on tv at 6Pm Saturday and Sunday. Only had 12 Channels.😉 Do like the New Series Strange New Worlds with Pike though. Chris was good in Ordinary People .
Tim C
2024-12-21 18:19:35 +0000 UTC18:48 Alright Cassie, we know you're from Canada. No need to lean into it so. :-) 39:33 Do you find it ... wisible, Cassie? 47:11 We're proud of you, Cassie!!! :-) 47:37 What are you talking about? We constantly meet Kirk's One True Love! She's a very enterprising lady... 50:57 Quite right! You can enjoy them all! Who is to say which is best? [Quick search.] For example, my favorite Kirk is played by Evan Stone! :-P This Sarek is played by Ben Cross, whom you saw in Chariots of Fire as the Jewish 100-m sprinter, and whom you could also watch in the Arthurian movie First Knight (1995). I still cannot but violently roll my eyes at the academic charges leveled following the Kobayashi Maru "test."
Happy Hanukkah
2024-12-21 18:07:47 +0000 UTCJJ Abrams definitely reached a larger audience then did the previous "long episode" format. At the box office, Star Trek (2009) dwarfed previous Trek movies. Also, Star Trek (2009) received the highest IMDb rating by users (and the highest critical acclaim) of any Trek movie. Further, the majority of established Trek fans or Trekkies like Star Trek (2009) and also are grateful how Star Trek (2009) reinvigorated the franchise.

Clay F
2024-12-21 16:48:12 +0000 UTCClarence's comment below reminded me of this in your reaction that stood out. Half the time you tell a character to say I love you, they don't say it. But here, Hemsworth (George Kirk) knocks it out of the park. Immediately after you tell him to say I love you, Hemsworth expressively says: "I love you so much, I love you [crashes/dies] ." Not only did he say it, but his last words.
Clay F
2024-12-21 16:32:19 +0000 UTCI hope we get a very long break from Trek. Cassie should poll her patrons to determine the interest level for any more Trek. IMO Picard and any of the other shows will do poorly on YT for Cassie.
Joe
2024-12-21 15:32:03 +0000 UTCCassie enjoyed Nemesis. That's Nemesis. I'm talking NEMESIS. She'll be fine with the other two JJ Treks.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 14:24:59 +0000 UTCOooh, that hurts, Kristin.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 14:16:48 +0000 UTCYes, it became more "Fun and Watchable" when they turned it into Star Wars with Trek characters.
Kristin D
2024-12-21 13:11:22 +0000 UTCThat was always going to take a new production team, Ivan. The TNG movies were produced and written by Michael Okuda, Brent Spiner, Rick Berman and Peter Lauritson etc, who had all worked on the series, so they were always going to feel like extended episodes. Traditionalists like me don't care a jot about that, but for Trek to feel truly "big screen" again (as the TOS ones did), it needed a totally different team at the helm.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 11:59:25 +0000 UTCAs much as I hate the new timeline of Star Trek movies - they have definitely gotten better after JJ Abrams took over. They finally realized more than hard core Trekkies will watch now that the 'long episodes' of previous trek movies were replaced by more action oriented Star Wars type movies.
crazyivan
2024-12-21 11:53:29 +0000 UTCThe chance will come around again. She's loved the Star Trek universe far too much for it to be done.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 11:47:49 +0000 UTCThe man has got a point. There is a vast difference between pacifism and leaving yourself defenceless.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 11:15:34 +0000 UTCThis is such a crock, and as a Star Trek traditionalist who likes these films but doesn't see them as real Trek, I really must protest that Kirk's dad was played by Chris Hemsworth. As soon as Cassie realised who he was, she was a fan of the film, and when he sacrificed himself to save everybody, she turned into a pile of jello like the co-pilot in "Airplane". Two touchdowns behind, our quarterback knocked out of the game by an illegal hit, and we're only five minutes in! In my house, the dialogue, as George Kirk flew to his certain death, pretty much went like this: Cassie (crying): "Say I love you." Hemsworth: "I love you so much." Cassie (hyperventilating): "Holy crap!" Me (exasperated): "C'maaaaaahnn!! Cassie really needs to go back and watch some more TOS and TNG now. It should only take about 30 or 40 episodes to counteract The Hemsworth Effect.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 11:13:01 +0000 UTCGlad you said that, Clay. It's not a consensual kiss, it's one that's forced on Kirk and Uhura by cruel, telekinetic aliens. Kirk doesn't even pucker his lips. He presses them against Uhura's mouth and looks over at the aliens in defiance of what they're making him do. There's a nice little subtext to that scene though, because Uhura is scared and Kirk is trying to comfort her. She tells him of the times on the Enterprise when she was frightened and his calm voice and strong presence would make her feel better. He is trying to resist, even though it's Kirk and he would doubtless have been happy to kiss Uhura any day of the week, and that's about respect. It's a sweet moment between them, which is only enhanced by the fact that Kirk doesn't allow himself to give in to, or enjoy, the kiss. The first interracial kiss on tv? No. But a great moment of respect and affection between a person who happens to be white and a person who happens to be black? Absolutely yes.
Clarence Newman
2024-12-21 10:58:43 +0000 UTCKevin, nice plan.
Clay F
2024-12-21 09:14:17 +0000 UTCI know it’s been said in this thread before…but you *definitely* have to try out Strange New Worlds. Because, if you think Uhura is Spock’s secret true love…she might be only the *third*best!!! I’d even put Strange New Worlds as the next thing to watch after the JJ Abrams movies, because it ties in so closely with the Original Cast crew, relatively speaking. Then do Voyager (in the same way you did TNG), and then please enjoy Picard.
Kevin C
2024-12-21 06:23:49 +0000 UTCzachary quinto is the actor playing Spock. If you have never seen it I highly recommend watching Heroes. It was a tv show about people developing super powers. Quinto's character was the Big Bad of season 1. He discovered he could gain other people's powers by killing them, removing their brains (and it was rumored/debated) and eating the brains. He was very powerful and very scary in the role. And on a sad note, Anton Yelchin who played Pavel Chekov in this and the rest of the movies to date, died. He got trapped between his jeep and a brick pillar in a freak accident. We still miss ya Anton. Rest well.
Don Dunco
2024-12-21 06:11:45 +0000 UTCCassie would enjoy that episode. I was also hoping she'd watch Menagerie, either for the channel, or for only herself.
John Liebling
2024-12-21 05:44:25 +0000 UTCThere's a lot to like about this movie: the cast and score in particular. Abrams' lens-flare directing and the nonsensical plot are the downsides. As usual, it's fun to see it through fresh eyes.
Michael Siegel
2024-12-21 05:41:45 +0000 UTCVoyager = Jeri Ryan is hot. Seems like I remember the series taking a little heat bringing her on mid-series as if an effort to boost ratings with an attractive female form. Would be good prep for Picard S3. DS9 is excellent. Watch for the performances. Good acting. Good writing. Has plenty of action, but the show is really about social issues and inspires philosophical discussion. I think Cassie would like it. The issue is we need the experts here to suggest how to watch DS9 with an average of say 7 episodes per season. Maybe go light on S1 and S2 so to increase number of episodes in later seasons?
Clay F
2024-12-21 05:36:24 +0000 UTCYep, it canon. Great casting. Plus, "great heart with the characters. ... capture[s] the essence of the fun of the Star Trek characters, the chemistry between the people, the excitement of becoming part of that crew and going out on this adventure." Honors the ST franchise.
Clay F
2024-12-21 05:30:15 +0000 UTCWas revolutionary being shown on TV because interracial. Yet, a kiss forced by others. Not like the willing kisses between Spock and Uhura in this movie.
Clay F
2024-12-21 05:22:31 +0000 UTCThank you Cassie!

2024-12-21 05:21:27 +0000 UTCGuilty lol, but yea it’s from ap2
John Struzziero
2024-12-21 05:20:54 +0000 UTCI think in the original series Kirk and Uhuru did one of the first tv series interracial kisses back in the 60s
Chrismyster
2024-12-21 05:18:06 +0000 UTCThe option to watch Sarek in the TOS S2 E10 episode Journey to Babel is always available if she wants to watch more of this fan favorite character.

2024-12-21 04:48:11 +0000 UTCJohn, good point. I slightly edited my reply.
Clay F
2024-12-21 04:23:10 +0000 UTCVoyager can be reacted to in an abbreviated fashion, as she did with TNG. In contrast, would be difficult to react to Deep Space Nine in an abbreiated fashion. I agree in that I think Cassie would like Voyager.
Clay F
2024-12-21 04:21:25 +0000 UTCWas that you saying that in the LIVE chat? Wasn't sure what that was referencing.

Clay F
2024-12-21 04:15:53 +0000 UTCHow about not giving her any preconceived notions, and let her actually do a BLIND REACTION to the movie? That's what I'm here for, and I assume everyone else is too.

2024-12-21 04:00:11 +0000 UTCThe last five or six episodes of Enterprise are AMAZING. I didn't hate the rest, but I wouldn't go rewatch it either. But those episodes... ♥️
Bryan Fritchie
2024-12-21 03:59:19 +0000 UTCIndeed, but don't let Cassie think Kirk was forcing himself, there was another force, forcing him against his will.

2024-12-21 03:53:32 +0000 UTC2009 st is a really good new take on the characters. It’s officially part of a new timeline created by the timetravel at the beginning so both Star Trek timelines occurred in the franchise. If you watch discovery they mention the forked timeline in one of the later season episodes

2024-12-21 03:47:57 +0000 UTCI watched TNG, DS9, Voyager as they aired -- loved all 3. --Awesome for the time that Voyager has a female captain. I like Picard S3 (and some of Picard S1). I had a hard time making it through Picard S2. I couldn't get into Enterprise or Discovery, but willing to give Enterprise another try. A year or two ago, I watched a couple of episodes of SNW and liked the production but haven't given SNW a chance. My personal ranking: 1. TNG 2. TOS 3. DS9 (awesome) 4. Voyager (Captain Kathryn Janeway) 5. Picard S3 6. SNW (giving this a try) Star Trek series ranked by IMDb user rating below. 1. Picard S3 (2023) 8.8 2. TNG (1987–1994) 8.7 3. TOS (1966–1969) 8.4 4. Strange New Worlds (2022-present) 8.3 5. DS9 (1993–1999) 8.1 6. Voyager (1995–2001) 7.9 7. Picard S1 (2020) 7.6 8. Enterprise (2001-2005) 7.6 9. The Animated Series (1973-1975) 7.2 10. Discovery (2017-2024) 7.0 11. Picard S2 (2022) 6.6

2024-12-21 03:47:19 +0000 UTCStar Trek Voyager next? It’s fun and not as heavy as Deep Space Nine. I don’t think she’d do well with DS9. Not saying it’s bad, just not as fun or “planet of the week” like Voyager.

2024-12-21 03:28:33 +0000 UTCI love this movie, but… for being so logical and technologically advanced, why didn’t the Vulcans have a planetary defense system? A strange ship parks itself next to the planet, starts shooting a beam that’s destroying their planet, and the Vulcan response is to go into the caves, hold their arms up and start chanting? 🤦🏻♂️ No Vulcan migs to shoot down the planet killing metal hose that was sent down? No ground to air missiles to hit the drill? If this happened here on earth, we’d Top Gun this thing and send Tom Cruise and ALL the fighter jets to blow it up. That being said, I still enjoy this movie quite a bit. 😁😂 Great casting.

2024-12-21 03:10:36 +0000 UTCWas revolutionary being shown on TV because interracial. Yet, a "forced" kiss, right? -- forced by others. Not like the "willing" kisses between Spock and Uhura in this movie.

2024-12-21 02:59:35 +0000 UTCLast week they were a little behind and everything kind of got smooshed together. It was easy to miss stuff.

2024-12-21 01:23:28 +0000 UTCYou never put the full watch along?
Kevin Charley
2024-12-21 01:22:14 +0000 UTCKirk and Uhura...Shatner and Nichols first interracial kiss on TV...from an episode you never watched, overall, not a good episode. But it's part of Star Trek history.
John Liebling
2024-12-21 01:14:50 +0000 UTCI really enjoy watching this movie. And yes the casting is spot on, they are enough of their own versions and yet familiarly like the originals without looking like they’re doing impressions.
Ria Grix
2024-12-21 01:12:53 +0000 UTCYeah, INTO DARKNESS is bad, but I suspect she will love it.
Stick Figure Studios
2024-12-21 01:03:21 +0000 UTCThe OG Sarek - Mark Lenard...died a long time before the 2009 movie. Remember Cassie Next Generation was 1987-1994.
John Liebling
2024-12-21 01:01:14 +0000 UTCI love this movie as a stand alone Star Trek, but there are a few problems with it. James T. Kirk was the YOUNGER Kirk brother, his older brother was Samuel. That's the main one, and the rest are minor, but no one but me seemed to notice the anomaly. I'm so glad you're enjoying your Star Trek journey, Cassie! I grew up with TOS, and I'm happy to see new fans come along in your generation.
Chris
2024-12-21 00:55:16 +0000 UTCIt's incredibly uneven in terms of storytelling in my opinion, but it is fun and I think she would enjoy it. But we're going to have a break from Star Trek after these movies.

2024-12-21 00:36:22 +0000 UTCAs a Beyond preview, I'll just say "That's a good choice."
Stranger2Reality
2024-12-21 00:22:06 +0000 UTCLove Strange New Worlds.
LittleGalaxyBoy
2024-12-21 00:20:37 +0000 UTCYeah that's definitely possible. Maybe she's the rare Trekkie who simply likes absolutely everything Trek and thinks there's no such thing as bad Trek. But the general consensus is definitely that Into Darkness has a strong case as the worst Trek movie. My guess is most people would say it's between that and Star Trek V.
Stranger2Reality
2024-12-21 00:20:06 +0000 UTConce again I'm gonna say it, Strange New Worlds... it's a prequel to the OG series but done in this high budget clean action style. I'd love that as a reaction. You're gonna go nuts for the new Captain Pike and Spock...
djKENTO
2024-12-21 00:19:51 +0000 UTCEvery single time we say something like this when it comes to Trek, she ends up liking the movie. So my bet is she's actually going to like Into Darkness.

2024-12-21 00:11:30 +0000 UTCMy favorite scene was Captain Kirk as a little kid putting the pedal to the metal in a 20th century classic car to the dulcet tune Sabotage by the Beastie Boys
Rosario Cicero
2024-12-21 00:08:05 +0000 UTCThis movie was good, but my apologies for what's coming next. Into Darkness is aptly titled.
