It's divisive on both sides, really. There's a lot of people who hated it and can't accept any praise of it, and a lot of people who really liked it and can't accept any criticism.

Personally, I didn't care for it, and thought it was pretty bad. But people seem to be way too invested in it one way or the other.

[(Anonymous)]

DA - Oh good, it's not just me. I was meh - it had some fun scenes, but I don't love or hate it. I don't think I'd watch it again though.

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed on that. It's kind of the movie I just don't talk about.

[bringreligiontothewamwams]

The ones that priase it are praising it for the soft core titty scene and the pew-pew-pew shoot 'em up parts. Same as any action movie. People that turned up to see a movie tell an actual story all slated it.

[(Anonymous)]

You can state your own opinion all you want, but that's one bullshit sweeping generalization about why anybody would have actually liked it. What about the people who turned up just to spend time with characters they loved? There are a few arguably OOC moments in the reboot films but you can still get a lot of kick out of the interactions and the little character moments.

[bringreligiontothewamwams]

Lol, no.

[(Anonymous)]

It was eye candy, that was about it.

Nope

[insanenoodlyguy]

Now I'm not saying people can't like the new characters, but if they showed up for the old characters they loved, they will be sorely dissapointed.

Hell, the first movie makes it a point to mention about how it wouldn't be that, really, stop asking.

Then they give us shitty wrath of kahn redux.

[kitty_wake]

Uh, yeah, no. Didn't particularly like it, didn't hate it, was part of a fun evening out with a friend.

[(Anonymous)]

Not sure if troll or just stupid.

[(Anonymous)]

They can be both.

[(Anonymous)]

My reaction to it is like 50% squeeing and 50% complaining, and this is about the same reaction it got out of a lot of fans I know. And I don't know a single one who won't accept people criticizing it. It's the Trekkies who are forgetting some of the appallingly bad ST movies of the past in order to say this one is unquestionably the worst that are being rabid.

[(Anonymous)]

Not to mention such masterpieces as "Spock's Brain" and "Threshold".

[(Anonymous)]

Spock's Brain = 60s TV episode. Threshold? = don't even know, feel free to revoke my Trekkie credentials (must be from one of the newer ones).

IMO, ST Into Darkness wasn't very good - too derivative, and really a disappointment considering how much I loved the previous film. But it's not the "worst film everrr", just kind of disappointing after all the expectation.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm too lazy to look it up, but "Threshold" may have been that Voyager ep where Janeway and Paris turn into, like, giant salamanders or something and have salamander babies.

("Spock's Brain" at least has enough of a cheese factor to make it kind of fun in spots. "Brain and brain! What is brain?!")

[(Anonymous)]

I just googled it, and yes, that's the one. Wow! That's .... different. (Never watched Voyager)

[(Anonymous)]

Original Trek has some fabulously cheesy lines, which I love to pieces. The "brain and brain" as quoted above, and we always guffawed at "the bringers of pain and delight" from the same episode.

[(Anonymous)]

Spock's Brain was wonderful and no one can convince me otherwise.

[otakugal15]

I liked Spock's Brain for how over the fucking top it was. XD And it's an episode where Kirk SHUNS any and all female seduction in favor of "GIMME BACK SPOCK!!"

I don't ship K/S in the reboot (which i like, just prefer the first film), but damn do I ship it in the TOS stuff.

No kidding. I actually just watched it last night for the first time, and let's just say I had expected it to be a whole lot worse based on all the hate I've seen directed toward it. Was it flawless? Hardly. But I would watch it again, and that's more than I can say for some of the other Trek movies.

[(Anonymous)]

And forgot to close my italics tag *facepalm*

[cbrachyrhynchos]

And a lot of people who thought it was worth the matinee price, and not the worst Trek writing we've seen.

[(Anonymous)]

not the worst Trek writing we've seen

not disagreeing

[(Anonymous)]

not the worst Trek writing we've seen

Accurate, but there's a huge level of fail involved if acclaimed directors and writers can barely do better than cheesy science fiction films.
