mornelithe said: I don't really care, honestly. I like both franchises, however, Star Wars has absolutely lost a great deal of luster given the 3 most recent movies. In that sense, my expectations could not be any lower for the new film, though, I do think they'd have to really try hard to do worse than what Lucas did. And yes, I realize 1-3 sold well etc..., I don't really care about that either, nor do I care about how much the new ST's sold/did at the BO. I never see any of that money, so all I care about is whether the films are good. The last 3 SW's were not, the last two ST's were (in my humble opinion). |
I absolutely loved the last two ST's. Especially the last one which was just amazing and actually like the original, made me misty eyed.

Oh yeah, I definitely shed a tear or two at the end. I really like Chris Pine, as Kirk. He was great in Bottle Shock. I wasn't sold on the whole reboot the timeline thing, but, I'd be lying if I said they couldn't have been hugely worse. Granted, the way I'm saying it doesn't seem like a great endorsement, but...it's hard to capture the same kind of mystique these movies/franchises had as a child growing up with them, now that I'm in my mid-late 30's. Know what I mean?
