Just watched this for the first time and gotta say I was completely impressed.
I rate it 9/10.
No idea why it gets hate.
>>68879198
I am surprised. I expected troll post.
Yeah, after seeing MoS, when I saw this movie in theater I was in tears it made me so happy. that's never happened to me watching a movie, but as a fan of Wrath of Kahn, it was a really interesting movie.
I like these movies like Gensys that play on the tropes/parody the old movies...
Because the plot is ridden with holes and everything about the climax is pointless and insufferable.
It has some neat scenes and it's entertaining enough but the bigger fan of TOS you are, the more offensive the movie becomes.
"Admiral Robocop", lol
>>68879198
LISTEN ALL YALL ITS A SABOTAGE
>>68879262
>insufferable
EVIL VILLAIN DETECTED
I like how they made the Klingons look like faggots.
Also Spock beating the shit out of that dude on the flying truck that's awesome and that's how Spock should be a badass motherfucker.
>>68879198
I love it too
Star Trek 2009 and Into Darkness are both much better movies than The Force Awakens
I don't know what went wrong with Abrams, maybe his visual sensibilities just don't fit Star Wars.
>>68879262
This. I can't remember the specifics, but I remember having these complaints.
Say what you will about JJ Abrams, but he really injected some magic blood into this dead franchise, bringing it back to life.

This is the only Trekthread in a couple of days
>>68879848
The entire opening sequence was a huge disappointment for me. Then they should have just let Kirk die so the movie's emotional impact would have been felt instead of forgotten.
>>68879388
they pay homage by basically taking the old and twisting it. also kirks resurrection was just pointless
>>68879917
I know and you don't post one because you expect a general to just be there.
They really sucked the wind outta my sails by bringing Kirk back. At least respect his sacrifice enough to let him stay dead for most of a movie, like Spock.
Having said that I liked it. Cumberbatch and Quinto just fucking killed it and Pine was really good too.
>tfw fucking normies everywhere
>>68880011
Fair cop. I like participating in Trekthreads but never start them unless I'm actively watching Star Trek.
I mean sometimes I'll start a Trek thread when I'm not actively watching but they always tend to be super baity often veering into abject nonsense.
>>68879198
was better than the first but the movie went off the rails after kirk died. he should've stayed dead.
>>68880183
>it's a lesbian Dax episode
>>68879198
Nah. They recycled the most famous scene from the most highly-rated movie of the franchise and cheapened it. they didn't even try to convince you that kirk will actually stay dead, and that made spock's scream ridiculous.
>>68880769
First one from 2009 was remarkably well made -- this one was all over the place and somehow felt more generic.
>>68879299
That was the 1st movie dingus.
This one had body movin
>it's a lesbian Kira episode
I liked it a lot, but I've never watched it again. I've watched ST 09 a bunch, as well as TWoK and FC. I think it went off the boil in the third act, the Kirk death stuff was ridiculously poorly done.
Gets too much hate, audiences/critics liked it and so did Trek fans in general.
Does anyone else really dislike JJTrek's Kirk? He comes across as an obnoxious fratbro. He becomes less so towards the end of Star Trek but then turns back into one for Into Darkness. I was happy when he died.
>>68881085
i like him but he come across as an entitled cunt
him becoming captain at the end of 09 was one of the dumbest parts of any trek movie
>>68879198
Completely forgettable. Also whitewashing Kahn, because whites are just so underrepresented as it is.
>>68879257
>I saw this movie in theater I was in tears it made me so happy
crying for this? really? you have to be some kind of hyper gay Trekkie to achieve that anon
>>68879198
I liked it the first time i seen it too but it does not have the re-watchable value that the first one had... this one just seems to get worse every time i see it
The movie was ruined by how the villain was right.
>>68880113
Sorry we can't all be faggot retard nerds wbo dwell in a basement becoming so fat that you can hear it. The movies need to have excitement and fun factor to indulge the people who actually make more sequels follow cause if shit like this flopped we would only get to see shit like whatever stars anyone from Saturday night live
Fat virgin queer

Uh.
Okay.

>>68879198
>No idea why it gets hate
it's popular
>>68879198
Really enjoyed it, especially the subtle hints that it was fucking Khan they were dealing with. Like the 72 torpedoes, that kind of shit.
Benedict was no Ricardo Montalban, but he still did a pretty good job. Seemed more like an emotionless killer than the passionate warlord that Ricardo was.
>>68881248
Yeah, I have a picture kissing George with my wife even too. Saw it with her, opening day, in that UHD thing they got.
Was a good day.
We just like good movies, not even casuals... but yeah. Compared to a lot of the shitty movies I've seen that was one of the better ones.
In tears. I got a good sense for movies, so whatever.
Why did everyone hate the Klingon design
>>68879198
>media gets released
>most of /tv/ makes a sensible judgement about it

Get your head checked, OP, you might be retarded.
Literally.

Why does he have a big nose? His head is a helmet. What are those things for? They look like rings. Why are his facial features so feminine? The face doesn't go with the nose.
>>68881798
the fuck is this shit
Generic space action schlock.
>>68879366
>and that's how Spock should be a badass motherfucker.
No it isn't, it isn't at all, what in the hell did you do to Spock Abrams, WHAT DID YOU DO?
>tfw it wasn't a Prometheus thread
>>68881085
Seemed realistic really, you can assume he matured over time to become the Kirk from TOS.
His Spock on the other hand . . .
>>68879198
I liked it too, and I was already a fan of TOS, TNG, and DS9.
The plot didn't make much sense, but I like the fact that they acknowledged the fact Kirk was an irresponsible asshole in the first movie and humbled him a bit in this one.
I still think it's better than Trek 5,7,9, and 10. Probably on par with First Contact like Trek 2009 was.
>>68879198
It's too long, so many scenes are pointless, and the ending is literally "well how did they win in the old show?"
>>68879262
this
the third act of the movie especially is really just a total disaster on every level
>87%
>>68882898
That is, I think, the weirdest part of these reboots.
The 3 writers keep setting up all those references like the fans will love them. In interviews people like JJ, and Alex Kurtzman (or Roberto Orci, I forget), keep saying "we're making a movie for non fans, but we put in lots of references to appease them".
I'm not even inferring that, they pretty much say so explicitly in the making-of documentaries and that JJ interview with Jon Stewart where Jon said "I stopped listening when you said you didn't like Star Trek."
>talking about JJ's edgy TOS remakes
>>68879198
I liked it too, Cumberbatch was probably the most memorable villain in a recent blockbuster. Only problem is thetribbles blood asspullat the end, other than that it was a fun, well-made, entertaining movie
>>68879388
>>68879262
There aren't any plot-holes really. There is just some really bizarre shit that obviously will never be addressed again. Like the fact that they literally have a cure for death.
>>68879198
I'd only knock it down to 8/10 because the REVERSE KHAN stuff in the third act is a drag and gets to the point of immersion breaking. Immediately reviving Kirk was just a bad call, you either do that plot and let it play out, or don't do it at all.
Other than that, entertaining.
2009 was better but it was still pretty good
>>68879917
Eh? Maybe not yesterday but there were big trek threads on the days before
>>68880131
>it's a One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest episode

>>68880987
It almost makes me mad that the writers could produce this level of waifu teasing. The entire mirror universe was the most gooey, comfy fanservice any piece of media has ever produced in human history
Was gonna go to bed until I see Star Trek and Harry Potter threads

How do you say 'JDIMSA' in Bajoran?
>>68879198
i suppose this movie was made for me, because i know nothing about star trek besides jj's movies, and i found both to be very enjoyable
>>68879263
Boy, you'd best not be talking shit about Peter Weller
>>68885152
me too. Never watched a Star Trek episode in my life and have no idea how anyone can enjoy it as the show looks boring
>muh space pirates
But these movies were really well done and loved the action scenes and also JJ did a much better job on these with the character dialogue compared to Force Awakens that felt way too rushed.
I used to not like Cumberbatch (too lazy to look up his name so hope I spelt it right) but after seeing this movie he is definitely one of my fav actors.
Can't wait to see him in that new Marvel film.
