I just watched Star Trek into darkness. Hmm, well pretty graphics. Rest was very average, even less star trek then the first one. At times it felt more like a spoof on Star Trek. I was about as emotionally engaged with the story as with Star Trek Nemesis, and intellectually the bullshit alarms wouldn't stop ringing. Actually the show down between the two mismatched ships in Nemesis was better.
The red planet at the start was the most interesting part of the movie, shame it was just there for a silly action scene.

Wrath of Khan + Nemesis + 9/11 themes + over the top shaky action scenes = 5.5/10
I didn't feel like watching the extras after.

with all the CGI and stuff of course its going to be more a action movie there is no room for oldschool star trek. sci fi lost the battle vs CGI long ago i think..I couldnt compare new and old ST because it is simply unfair. even the dialogues in this one felt like over the top action scenes so I rated this movie for what it is. new age sci fi ,cgi action packed flick.

finished season 2 of breaking bad..737 LOL

Blockbuster sci-fi sure, the cgi scenes are no longer the icing on the cake with a few very impactful memorable scenes. Now it's the main focus and a constant barrage of cgi action. And yes the dialogue suffered for it too. I prefer Oblivion over this.
I'm still looking forward to watching Europa report, coming in October. Looks like a solid exploration sci-fi movie.

I was just looking up Galaxy quest on imdb as that's what the style of the new Star Trek reminds me of, no wonder, check the trivia quote:
In the Audio Commentary for Star Trek, Director J.J. Abrams says, "By the way, I think we've all gone on record as saying one of our favorite 'Trek' films is 'Galaxy Quest'.

i totally forgot about europa report its already up on TPB ..http://imageshack.us/a/img542/650/izy.jpg (web dl) awesome quality 720p. I will probably watch it tonight and post what i think.. and wow Gravity 96 on metascore lol
