In a nutshell this movie is simply awesome. The story is action packed and the plot is well thought out. It’s everything a Star Trek movie should be. :thumbup:
I think even Bart will like it;)

COOL! I was hoping it would turn out good! That guy (from "Hero's) sure got the Spock Look down! I'm hoping to see it this weekend! Was hoping the Trek universe wasn't dead!
After the VX run in Moab last year...I went to Las Vegas and stayed @ the Hilton Hotel & did the Trek Experience..it was worth it! Figured I'd better do it before Trek might die!
the Trek Experience has since moved on to another locale so don't know what has changed or if it's still great.
I have been a Treekie since I saw the first episode back in 68.
Can't wait to see this movie.
Yeah, I think I am going to see it. Now, I am NOT a Trekkie, I honestly really don't care for Star Trek AT ALL. I think the original series has it's place, but it stops there for me 100%. That said, I've seen a few trailers for the new movie, and man, it does look pretty damn good. So, I am going to give it a go. I loved Cloverfield in the theater so I hope Star Trek has at least some of the thrill that movie gave me...Quote:

I didn’t know I was going entail an hour before the movie started. One of my sisters had an extra ticket and gave me a call. I wasn’t planning on going to the midnight show. We are definitely on for Terminator next week if you’re free. :naughty:Quote:

I'd see it again.
took the wife to it for Mothersday...hehe as a Trekie ..i enjoyed Bones role..as for the altered time lines ..good job .. the action was great. and the there was a Cardasian drink on the menu..hmm did think they knew them back then..but overall.. great film...Ive enjoyed j.j.Abrams films and they did a good one with this ..the drill thing was alittle wierd ..but HEY its sci-fi......ill go see it again..next week with my friend
I went to see it May 8th at 7:30PM. The theater was full, even though there had already been three showings. When the movie ended, everyone clapped and cheered. Then, we all sat watching the credits, chatting about it and discussing what a great concept it was to start Star Trek all over again! A brand new time line. Then, when the credits were over, the screen went dark and the house light came up, we all got up and ambled out, reluctant to leave. Most incredible movie experience I've ever had. I can hardly wait for the second one. Apparently, there are already two more in the works. YAY!!!
dude, i loved Cloverfield, i saw it 2 times in the mocie theater and bought the movie, but i yet am to find some1 else that loved it or even liked it, till now, mmmmm makes me smile :grino: . Can't wait to go see the trek movie, might go tonight. Oh boy i'm exited now :bwgy:.

My daughter went to see it with her husband and they were both scared silly because they had never heard a thing about it. Not so much as a single ad!
im waiting for cloverfield 2
Hahah! Yeah, Spocks Ship did sound like something out of Star Wars.:p

I enjoyed Cloverfield, but I warn you that if you have a motion-sickness sensitivity, you might not want to watch it. That's all I'm going to say about it.
Star Trek. I didn't know it was directed by Lucas. He really did a great job. I enjoyed everything about it. I can't wait to see it again and to buy it when it comes out on DVD.
OMG Zeus! That is hilarious! But what caused the convulsions?
I'm laughing at myself too for not recalling that Abrahms directed Star Trek. (As if I even knew that in the first place.) Seriously though, I got a giggle out of your tongue-in-cheek about Trek Wars. That was a riot.
I never saw Cloverfield at the theater. I bought the movie and watched it at home with a friend who gets motion sickness easily and she had to keep closing her eyes, got nauseous and finished off with a fine headache. Needless to say, she is not a friend anymore.
Hahahaha I'm jesting, of course.
Cloverfield ROCKED in the theater. Loved it.
Bart
I feel guilty, but I'm laughing!
LOL...not being much of a trekkie, it was sheer boredom that led me to this thread...:rolleyesgQuote:

BTW, you have the lists cornfused...the LONG list is the one you don't wanna be on...:naughty:
So, I finally got around to it last night. I'm glad I waited. The theater was barely a 1/4 full and everyone was quiet and considerate of the other movie goers. Thus, reminding me of why I wait a couple weeks to see movies in the theater and why I go on off days or in the mornings on weekends.
Now, as I said before, I am in no way a big Star Trek fan. But this movie was a joy to watch! Excellent story, great script, spot-on acting, superb character development, awesome F/X, big :thumbup:. It's such a shame the new Star Wars films were not this good.
Soon I will subject myself to the GIANT let-down that I am sure T4 will prove to be.
Bart
Glad you liked it! Yeah T4 might be a bit of a disappointment. Zeus and I went with some friends to the midnight show last week. It wasn’t bad but it definitely wasn’t as good as T2 ether.
Yeah, T3 pretty much sucked however I did like it due to the fact that it kept true to the original story line and I LOVED the ending. The new fangled TBeotch in T3 was stupid though and Arnie looked like the Geezernator not a Terminator...but I went with it. T1 is still my fav and T2 is one of the greatest action films of all time...Quote:

Definitely report back on that. While I thought the SpiderMan flicks were ok, he should definitely stick to horror.Quote:

Thought Terminator movie was worth seeing. Definately better than T3.
I still remember when I saw the first Terminator for the first time...thought the movie was over after Kyle Reese shoved the dynamite into the tanker truck....ka-bluie...Kyle climbs out of fire-soaked dumpster & rushes to S-A-R-A-H Connnnner's aid...Au-nold leaps out of cab on fire...falls to ground...melting...(ready to get up & leave the theater when).....holy carp!!!! :eek:
Good movie! It had almost no CG and It stayed true to the evil dead II style of film making. The only thing I didn’t like, NO BRUCE CAMPBELL CAMEO!!! ;)

Except for the collapse of his state (which happened before the recession).Quote:

My review
Bart
Trek finnaly warped into my local theater.
Wow, it may just be the best film in the franchise yet!
In a really bad headspace right now with all the negative $h!t going on in my life, but I was almost able to forget about it for a few hours. That's saying ALOT!
Best,
I have a confession.... I am 50 years old and grew up with Star Trek BUT I have NEVER seen a single Star Trek episode or movie. NEVER! I may be the only one but have never seen Star Trek.
I'm just sayn
Now would be a great time. The film stands alone, with no prior knowledge.
Best,
I heard the movie was great. Think I'll break down and go see it. There goes my sprre of not watching Star Trek
Doesn't sound like you grew up with Star Trek. Sounds like you grew up without it.Quote:
