Damn that movie looks BAD ASS! I have to admit I'm a bit of a Trekkie nerd, but I think this is going to be a great movie.

Karl Urban as "Bones" (a.k.a, Dr. McCoy) is almost dead on.

I have high hopes for this movie.

After watching Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise start their missions, I see this as unraveling the one thing unique to the original series--history of the ship preceding Kirk and crew. I'll see it, but I'm skeptical.

Is it possible to even make a “bad” Star Trek Movie? They are all awesome!

Of of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, Spocks was the most... Human...

Captain James T. Kirk

I love all forms of Star Trek, but really??? The original was HORRIBLE, and III-VI were decidely average. The only movies I'd rewatch are Generations, First Contact... and maybe Wrath of Khan.

The Wrath of Khan is the greatest Trek movie.
The Search for Spock is actually pretty good.

They jumped the shark with The Voyage Home.
That was all kinds of stupid.

Mikey I am going to have to strongly disagree with you on this one…Star Treks are not like Star Wars movies where they should have stopped after #2…Star Trek films offer new horizons & life forms yet to be discovered…At my annual Star Trek Convention fellow Trekies agree, some of the less popular Star Treks are actually some of the most interesting & creative…

The only Star Trek movie I've seen was First Contact. I have nothing to compare it to, but I thought it was a damn cool movie. This new one looks insane; an epic effects film that's not all gayed up by Michael Bay.

02-03-2009, 02:33 AM
I think they're pretty much the opposite of the Spurs, the odd numbered Treks all suck and the even numbered ones are great to decent although the last few have sucked period.


I didn't like Generations because I didn't like the decision to kill Kirk. I'd have much preferred they kill Picard. That had to be one of the most contrived plots in history.


As for this one...it looks good, unfortunately it's the 11th in the series, and while it's not totally true that the even numbered ones are always good...the odd numbered ones have been horrendous. Probably the best one was the Search for Spock, and that's not saying much.

And BTW, I don't think the guy playing Kirk is going to pull it off...William Shatner has an innate level of pompous douchebaggery that is pretty much unapproachable by any other actor in history.

Never has such a douchebag taken himself so seriously.


Observe this classic Shatner rendition of Rocketman and I challenge you to disagree:

I've heard that the movie galaxyquest was a multimillion dollar shot at Shatner and how he acts towards people.

They're all very bad movies. That didn't stop me from watching them over and over, but they all contain major problems in terms of the scope of Trek and just movie-making in general.

II is good, the rest are bland.

I was sitting next to this girl who was basically having an orgasm during that trailer.

She fucking annoyed the shit out of me.

She kept saying, "oh my god, Johnny Depp. Johnny. Ohhhhhh, Johnny."

I was one second away from pulling a Chris Brown when she stopped.

Seriously, though, she didn't even mention Christian Bale? Craziness!

The original ST movie succeeded primarily in that it revitalized a franchise that everyone had left for dead. Other than that -- it was a slow-moving mofo with poor acting, decent FX, and a nice Jerry Goldsmith (RIP) score.

Now, if they'd had an extended nude scene with Ilia, that could have redeemed it right there.

I was cautiously optimistic until I saw the latest trailer. Now I'm excited. I've heard that Urban and Pegg are so spot-on it is a little creepy. Had my doubts about Pine but so far so good.

My mom met Shatner once in an elevator in Las Vegas. He actually initiated conversation and was apparently quite friendly.

He probably just doesn't like dudes. :lol

It's basically a reboot, so it's going to bring in a lot of new fans.

Of course, a lot of the die hard Trekkies are going to hate the fact that all the previous films are now going to be void.

Are any of you going to see it on Thursday night? I think most theaters are going to start showing it at 7pm this Thursday night. I was really surprised that the women in this Star Trek movie don't wear pants. I know that the women in the original Star Trek tv show didn't wear pants and I guess this one is kinda trying to be like the original but I figured since it was a reboot or whatever that they would try something different and put pants on the women. I'm not complaining though cause I think Uhura looks hot in this one.
