Star Trek: into darkness

Saw the movie last night with my girlfriend and it was amazing! If you liked the first or just like Star Trek in general you'll love it. J.j Abrams does a great job staying true to the franchise but still revamps it. It's visually breathe taking. I'm younger so I never really saw the original show but I loved the new one and it could make anyone regardless if you've seen the show or not like it. My girlfriend hates science fiction movies but loved this one. I liken it to how batman begins went into dark knight. You have batman begins as the set up movie introducing you to characters and places and concepts then you have the second movie were you can really explore and build on top of it. It's great if you saw it let me know what you guys thought and if you haven't check it out. So worth it

I saw it last night, and I gotta say it was better than the first one IMHO. And Alice Eve was smoking hot throughout the movie.

 

Khan was a great reveal, as I didn't know going in that he was going to be the villain. The actor playing him did a great job.

Yeah loved the reveal. Much better then the first.

I would say it was better than the first, and that isn't a knock on the first at all because it was good. This one just picks up right where it left off and opens up the Star Trek universe even more, bringing with it that nostalgia.

I highly recommend it, J.J. Abrams knows his poo. I'm already looking forward to the next one.

Saw it this morning and LOVED it!!

We've been watching the original series with my 6 year old and he watched the first Star Trek Movie this weekend. It was awesome that he knew all the characters going into it. And he understands the whole parallel time line thing going on. It's the first movie he's watched in theatres that he didn't ask if we could leave.

Can't wait for the next one.

edit: and yes Sherlock did a great job ..

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
