Also Prometheus is one of last year's best films, if not the best sci-fi genre film in the last 20. Get your poo poo straight.

Is this a joke? I enjoyed Prometheus and all but, no.

I did not enjoy this movie. Same problems I've had with JJ Trek 09 were still present.

I don't really get the 9/11 scene that happens right at the end of the movie either. It seems so flippant and pointless, like they just wanted to cram some more explosions into the movie. Is the idea like, they've learned to not overreact or give in to vengeance so when space 9/11 happens, no one will care?

Yay, we saved the crew! Well many of them at least. Oh no, we failed to stop 9/11x20. And the movie fails to reflect on that because it was stupid.

It is unfortunate that they didn't get another Mexican dude for the reboot, but it's very hard for me to get worked up about it when Into Darkness' critique of the series' liberal ideology is so strong.

Seriously this bothered me above all else. Casting issues are important but JJ Abrams changed what Star Trek is. A post scarcity human utopia that can now focus on outward exploration rather than internal conflict.

Internal conflict within the Federation has been part of the series for some time. For example, the Maquis.

Signaling the precise moment Star Trek lost its mass appeal.

Watch After Earth.

Why? have you done a reading on that? I'd read the hell out of that.

Maybe Sulu has more depth in this movie we haven't seen yet.

Hahaha
