Really good movie. I can't call it 'great' until I see it more than once.

I'm fairly into Star Trek - seen all the movies, all of the TV series - but have never gone to conventions, dressed up as a Romulan or learned Klingon.

I think the casting was superb, all of the main characters were cast perfectly.

There were a few things in the movie that struck me, as a Star Trek fan, oddly, but it didn't take away from the movie.

I felt at first like the main villain was underused, more something to move the story along than anything else, but then I recognized that the main conflict in this movie is between Kirk and Spock, not Good Guys vs. Villain.

I'll be seeing it again this weekend.

How I rank Star Trek


TNG
DS9
TOS
Voyager
Enterprise

Patrick Stewart and Brent Spiner alone made Star Trek what it is today. Yeah yeah Shatner and Nemoy were the front runners but TNG brought it to a whole new level. Deep Space Nine was a little boring until they started in on the whole Dominion thing. Voyager blows mainly because of Janeway and that annoying bitchy Klingon engineer Blana or whatever her name is. The only reason I rank it above Enterprise was the Borg storylines they incorporated including those involving that new species.

Enterprise is an abomination to Star Trek and I can't believe Bakula would stoop that low.


Anyway....I can't wait to see the movie.

A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
