btw i don't know what hard core trek fans thought this movie was gonna be.
if it was to be like the other movies,it would have bombed.in its time the other movies were good,but this new one did something the other movies didn't.it smashed the box office. it also brought in a new fan base.

in all fairness a lot of old hard core trek fans enjoyed this film,don't let a few that didn't, spoil anything.some old trek fan are stuck in a time warp and want the trek that was.i heard a interview with nimoy on the radio a day after it opened here,and he said that in talking to roddenberry years ago,gene hoped in the future somebody else would handle startrek and do something different with it.even roddenberry knew trek as it was wouldn't last forever.btw nimoy didn't have to be in this new film,he did it cause he like it,he doesn't need the money.sometimes the people that make these film know better then the fans

its a great film enjoy

Sounds like you have an agenda? Not to mention trying to follow that post....it’s all over the place. You sound like you have a problem with people who thought it was a senseless, mindless effects laden summer popcorn fare that has no resemblance to anything associated with Star Trek other than the name. A film that tries too hard to distance itself from the previous world but at the same time likes to use license from the original.

Sound's like you have an agenda. Sounds like you have a problem with fans of Trek that liked the movie, but to each his own. Right?

It's a great movie. See it and let us know for yourself. The movie is an amazing 95% positive reviews with an average rating of 8.1 out of 10. that puts this movie in the Star Wars, Indiana Jones classics type of positive reviews. But that doesn't matter either. Let us know what YOU guys living in Japan think of it when you see it.

I know you're not talking about the Original Trilogy before Lucas mucked it up.

I have to agree with Blu-mike. This is one of the best Sci-fi movies ever in my opinion and that includes the original Star Wars trilogy before Lucas pissed all over them. If Star Trek had been like this back in those days I would have grown up a Trekkie instead of playing with Star Wars toys. I understand why you would be skeptical and that's a good thing because when you do see it you will enjoy it even more. I know that's why I did.

I mean episodes 1,2,3 But Episode 3 was epic but it had bad acting.

It's Star Trek no doubt. Things change ok? You are not a bigger Trek fan than me, and you make very little sense. You mention "senseless"? Dude as much as I love Star Trek, 99% of it IS senseless (but fun).If I were to go through the original series and the orginal six movies, I could point to hundreds of inaccuracies. And, as far as the "mindless effects", the "Trouble with Tribbles" had great effects, eh?

Wow! Where did you see all that in his post?!

It's just a movie. Some liked it, some didn't.

I thoroughly enjoyed it - and I've thoroughly enjoyed some old/new generation trek.

There was no way this movie was going to please EVERYONE, however, it did please many, critics, audiences, etc. It's been a long time since I left a theater where people clapped, and were already talking about how much they liked it as they were exiting the theater. I DEFINITELY did not experience that when I saw Wolverine or T4. I've seen Star Trek twice, and both times, the audience loved it.

Love it or hate it, I think it has generally been "accepted" as the "new" Trek.

Of course, everyone is still entitled to liking it or disliking it on they're own level. If anyone has an agenda on either side, it really doesn't matter at this point. The movie is out - and we'll be getting a sequel. The end.

The best movie of the summer so far I really enjoyed it.
