Star Trek Discussion Thread For Those Who Have Seen It - WITH SPOILERS
I hate farting around with the spoiler button, so consider this thread to be one big spoiler. If you haven't seen the movie and want to, stop reading now.


You have been warned.





So, what did you like, or not like? What annoyed you?

Mainly I really enjoyed it. I liked the cast and the ship. Special effects were great. Nimoy was awesome.

Some things that bothered me:

1. I thought Nero was a weak villain. Also, are we really supposed to believe that they just sat there waiting for Spock for 25 years? That's the single dumbest aspect of the movie. Were they playing cards? Knitting? That was dumb. Of course, Star Trek is generally good for a couple of head-scratchers like that.

2. Rather convenient that Scott just happened to be stationed on the ice planet. That was lame. But I do like the way Pegg portrays him.

3. I still can't quite believe they destroyed Vulcan. That's.... damn. I guess we won't be getting a remake of Amok Time.

I think that would be more the stuff of novels and not film.

Probably. I'm not expecting it, but I would enjoy it, and read all the novels.

What I really want is Shadows of the Empire done in Clone Wars animation.

That was an outstanding novel.

I like how Star Wars has taken over this thread.

Suck it, inferior nerds.

Just rented First Contact and am about to watch it for the first time since seeing it in way back in the theaters. I really don't remember much about it other than borg were involved and something about the first warp ship.

I finally got the soundtrack to the new Star Trek. I didn't like it all that much during the movie but it's grown on me slightly. I'm interested to see what direction Giacchino goes with sequels.

Random observations after watching First Contact again. It's that guy from Band of Brothers and Worf was arguing with Adam Scott near the start. Biggest mystery of all is how was Dr. Crusher that hot when she was around 47 at the time?

She's always been a ****ing hottie. In fact she only got better with age.

That's garbage, though. She got cast just because she was hot. Like that seven of 9 BS.

Hottest Star Trek female was Jadzia Dax. She wasn't OMG HOT at first, but as you got to know her, she only got hotter.

Hey nerds, do you remember seeing Star Trek IV in 1986? Did you get all choked up, too?



Quote:
I absolutely had the same experience! (Back in the days before pre-internet spoilers) and I went into the movie with zero expectations.
Was certain that they'd get Excelsior...
Then the Alexander Courage theme music cue kicks in as we crest the Excelsior and see OUR ENTERPRISE REBORN.
NCC-1701-A
I am not too proud to say I cheered and cried at the same time. And no need to be ashamed of it because the WHOLE AUDIENCE was doing the same thing!
Quote:
I experienced the exact same emotions when I saw this in 1986... I was certain it'd be Excelsior, I always hated that ship.

Then they cleared it and we saw NCC-1701-A and the whole crowd gave it a standing ovation.

I have to also say, seeing the original Enterprise die 2 years earlier in 1984 was the first time I cried in a movie theater... And I was far from alone... My whole family consoled me.
Quote:
I think everyone in that special showing at the Cannon Cinema in 1986 cried at that point. It was very poignant after the comedy and fulfilment of the movie that the ending was the beginning of the new voyages of the starship Enterprise - NCC-1701 - A!
Quote:
This was the only moment I can remember when people in the theater cheered and hugged each other. Everyone had the same feeling of joy! Star Trek can do that too you if you let it. Hears hoping JJ Trek provides the same feelings. Please don't cut out things like this for the sake of young kids. Who only care about explosions, loud noises, and how cute the actor is
Quote:
I was one of the suckers who thought that they would get Excelsior at the end, and was absolutely SHOCKED when 1701A came into view. I was at a pre-release screening, and I must not have been the only one surprised, because the entire theatre erupted in cheers at that very moment. Great memories.
Quote:
I was 15 and saw this in the first showing in our town back in 1986. Anyway, when the shuttle crested the Excelsior's hull and we saw our first glimpse of the new Enterprise, the audience's response was a THUNDEROUS standing ovation. We couldn't even hear the rest of the movie. I still get chills when I remember that
