Silly naming convention continues, but I hope hope hope it's better than the execrable Into Darkness.

I also hope it's better. It's a great trailer, but that's what you'd expect from the makers of the Fast and the Furious. Much shiny, but substance?

Yeah, this isn't Star Trek, I've given up on it being anything like the Trek that we love. It's entertaining, but it's not Trek.

I'm hopeful the series Paramount is developing is going to be more like TNG/DS9 and less BANG BOOM everyone run EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME.

I liked Into Darkness.

Both Star Trek movies thus far have been decent Sci-Fi action movies that have only a passing resemblance to Star Trek. In fact, they felt more like Star Wars. (Which bodes well for a certain other movie J.J. Abrams directed afterward that comes out this week.)

So did they sit back and say, "its the third one, we have to destroy the Enterprise."

Why would they stop now? I mean, they've been destroying the Enterprise this whole time, to various degrees, right?

My theory is that they have no cleaning team in the alternate universe future, so they have to destroy it before it gets too dirty to use.

Well, when's the last time you saw janitorial staff on the Enterprise in any iteration of Trek?

What's sad about that is I liked all of those actors in their roles. You could not have cast those movies any better than they were cast. Those guys did a magnificent job of representing the old 60's star trek cast.

It's the script and directing that was so frustratingly NOT STAR TREK.

Don't act like Star Trek can only be what you want it to be :/ Things need to adapt.

Unless you'd prefer the Trek franchise to fade off into obscurity and never be recreated for a new audience.

Yeah, it's not exactly like anything since TNG captured the public consciousness, except in unification of belief that the Enterprise theme song sucked balls.

Abrams did the impossible and made me interested in Star Trek. He then kinda blew it, but still.

Nonsense.

Star Trek always was fairly solid speculative science fiction, whereas Abrams reboot was a Space Opera.

Battle in Star Trek was generally patterned after WWII submarine suspense movies, as opposed to an action movie. Abrams reboot is just a Sci-Fantasy action flick.

Note there's nothing wrong with Sci-Fantasy, Space Opera action flicks. I've always preferred the Star Wars, which is all of those things, to Star Trek. But making Star Trek into it as well is clearly against the entire spirit of the franchise. It'd be like turning James Bond movies into a Sherman Brothers musical with dancing cartoon penguins. You can claim "Things need to adapt," but anyone who said it was still a James Bond movie would be smoking something strong.

As for "capturing the public consciousness," well, that's hardly a prerequisite for any of this. The new ones didn't, either. Let's just say Browncoats like you and I, FarSky, are far, far fewer in number than Trekkies, by a factor of hundreds, perhaps thousands, and yet we will heap only praise on Whedon's masterpiece. And someone who tried to make a live version of it "on ice" would not be regarded fondly by either of us.

Yeah, this is just... so, so sad. I think he was already a great actor, and had lots more potential. RIP.
