As a some time fan of Star Trek. What did I miss about the last few films.

I damn near applauded at the theater for Into Darkness. My homie who is a HUGE Trekie was damn near ready to brawl. Whats the disconnect between the average fan and the die hards. The only thing I know for sure is the OG rule of basically look but not touch. But that aside the score was fantastic.

I mean in the end it didn’t do much with the characters or world. They made the effort to preserve the original timeline and create an alternate one but Khan was still a eugenics villain. Vulcans were still holier than thou smart guys. Klingons still angry. Uhura/Spock went nowhere.

Visually beautiful and great chemistry but not much else that couldn’t have been done with a new cast or story.

They used to be straight sci fi movies. Now they are action movies with a sci fi backdrop. Closer to Transformers than 2001 space odyssey

into darkness was a shytty remake of the best trek film of all time that's why it was hated

I actually thought beyond was the best of the new movies even though it bombed. felt the most like a real trek episode

I never cared about the OG Star Trek so there is no attachment. Only one I've seen was Nemesis and I went to sleep in the theater. So all 3 of the new joints are fire to me:yeshrug:

Never been a star trek fan, shyt is like mash to me, when it would come on tv, it was time for bed. I worked with a dude who tried to explain star trek to me, shyt was like :russell:

But the newer films seemed like they weren't so boring and stiff. Still they didnt do much for me but were an okay watch I guess.
