I went into the movie with high hopes, and I was not let down.

 

Really good movie. Good story, good action, good acting. Plenty to like for the new trek crowd and the old.

 

The villain was great, I am a big fan of that guy from the Sherlock series.

 

This is a must see summer movie. Much better than Iron Man 3.

 

I loved the take on reversing the roles of Spock and Kirk from the original sequel. Great idea. Having Spock yell "KHAAAAAAAAAN" was awesome. Made my day.

It was a great movie.  I enjoyed it.  It's JUST as good as the first, probably better because yeah the Sherlock dude stole the show.   The only thing to complain about is that it really isn't Star Trek-ish, but I don't know why people are surprised because the first one wasn't either.  I grew up watching Next Generation and I can agree it's not Star Trek-ish but I can also understand that I'm not sure a movie like that would be as successful as a movie like these.  Overall, great summer action/sci-fi flick, while not being Trek-ish but still great.  Not enough actual "space" battles but yeah.

Really? I grew up watching Next Gen but I've been watching The Original Series a lot recently, it felt a lot like that to me, obviously updated.

 

Loved loved loved the movie.

 

Isn't there a thread on this already.

I liked it, but to not admit the acting got overly hammy (besides Benedict) is just being disingenuous. 

 

Yeah, but go back and watch the first trek movie... it was worse. I found it endearing to have the same type of overacting.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
