And I'm a Star Trek fan who liked it. Opinion is opinion, and it is okay for people to like things you don't like and disagree with your opinion on that thing.

AYRT

Did you like it as a generic space action movie? Or as an actual Star Trek movie? Because I really would have liked more thoughtfulness/philosophy/characterization in there for it to go with previous incarnations of Star Trek.

I'm really not trying to be snarky or anything. I just have a hard time wrapping my brain around Star Trek fans liking it as a Star Trek movie. (Other than they like the characters, so they like seeing them, even if the story isn't there.) If you don't feel like spelling out why you like it, that's fine, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

I guess for me I don't expect it to be exactly the same because it is an alternate universe. I see the same characters, but in a universe where Vulcan was destroyed, the Romulans were met face to face much earlier, and in general there is a much more militaristic viewpoint. It is still Trek, but different.

Because Star Trek isn't a monolithic canon. Each series is different. So, there's a lot of different ways to appeal to Star Trek fans.

Except for Enterprise. Fuck Enterprise.

Hey now. Enterprise is a damn sight better than DS9. DS9 was just a more boring version of Babylon 5 with some characters from TNG thrown in.

Okay, them's fightin' words.
