I still haven't forgiven Orci and Kurtzman for the horrid bodge they put on Transformers.<br />Thanks alot D-bags,yet another franchise you've ruined attempting to "revitalize" it.<br />}=\Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13318340110973416711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845471204082714270.post-86790583378994935732009-05-11T18:22:00.000-04:002009-05-11T18:22:00.000-04:00I agree.

The story was flimsy and it seems like it was written around having old-Spock in it, which i could have done without. I didn't believe Nero's motivation for wanting to kill Spock. If my planet was wiped out, I wouldn't travel across the universe to destroy the last bit of my geneology. (i.e. Vulcan, Romulan cousins.) And why are all Romulan miners required to have bald heads and facial tattoos? I didn't believe the story and I think rodenberry is turning over in his urn orbiting Cestus 3.Craighttp://www.myspace.com/creggerznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845471204082714270.post-72520310544981444662009-04-20T00:01:00.000-04:002009-04-20T00:01:00.000-04:00You would be incorrect.

As usual, try reading everything and not skipping around and you would have seen this sentence "I had a huge rant prepared because I am more than a bit annoyed at some story beats..."<br /><br />The reality though is Prime universe canon is irrlevant, the writers (with Paramount's approval) have created a 2.0 universe that gives them blank check to do whatever they want.<br /><br />That can't be changed. So your options are to rant and rave or accept it. I have simply chosen to accept it since the former option will accomplish absolutly nothing (and therefore illogical).<br /><br />Prime U. will remain my favorite and I will continue to enjoy the books (highly recommend Star Trek: Destiny trilogy) but this movie is the new direction of the Star Trek franchise for better or for worse.tflambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05659347484349509635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845471204082714270.post-89181038521785356382009-04-19T23:35:00.000-04:002009-04-19T23:35:00.000-04:00I do wonder if the guy who runs this site likes th...I do wonder if the guy who runs this site likes the idea of ignoring everything about the last 40 years and wants it wiped out completely to make him feel happy and satisfied with life. It's clear he's a not fan and doesn't care one way or another.<br /><br />I'm not the most diehard fan, and have fallen in and out of the franchise over the last 15 years anyway. So, I'm not bothered by what they do because I think this just changes TOS that's all.<br /><br />The Wrath of Khan and First Contact are the best Trek movies of all time.<br /><br />Also, I think everything works out in the end in terms of canon anyway.<br /><br />But like I said guy who runs this site must enjoy saying "screw the last 40 years. I'm not a true fan. You can kiss my butt." That's my opinion of this site's founder.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845471204082714270.post-23806622308666964372009-04-15T12:29:00.000-04:002009-04-15T12:29:00.000-04:00First Contact Rocked!!! But that's not what I'm he...First Contact Rocked!!! But that's not what I'm here to post about... <br /><br />I'm thankful for the siynopsis, and If you even thought it was spoiler, I laugh in your face.<br /><br />Because we all know that star trek is predictable. It will always end wtih the good guys winning.<br /><br />Thats TREK!!! GET OVER IT!!!<br /><br />The only question is who dies. And if you watch the series, you can figue it out.<br /><br />I knew NERO DIED before I read this. <br /><br />I've watched my trek episodes like a good little girl, and I don't see him.<br /><br />Anyway, this confirms my suspicions, while I am still excited to see this movie.<br /><br />And write FanFiction. <br /><br />Star Trek needed action. The failures of the last 3 series' prove that that audience is all bye bye.<br /><br />I'm glad my fave show has gotten with the times!<br /><br />SPOILER ALERT:<br />I'm going just to see kid Spock. I mean c'mon, that's all a true trekkie needs in the end. <br /><br />ANYWAY!!! I just wanted to say thanks!The Trek Girlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845471204082714270.post-11428852864691227912009-04-12T16:13:00.000-04:002009-04-12T16:13:00.000-04:00WonderboyCoz,In the original series, before the ep...WonderboyCoz,<BR/><BR/>In the original series, before the episode "Balance of Terror," Starfleet did know about the Romulans, but they had never seen them face to face. They didn't know what they looked like and had no idea Romulans were an offshoot of the Vulcans.<BR/><BR/>And First Contact is poop.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845471204082714270.post-54707536508272043812009-04-12T09:19:00.000-04:002009-04-12T09:19:00.000-04:00eh? of course they know who the romulans, you shou...eh? of course they know who the romulans, you should really watch some Star Trek again if your gonna say silly things like that!<BR/><BR/>I would alsosay that the two best Treks, First Contact and Khan are also very fast paced and the story in khan is pretty underdeveloped, this is a doomsday weapon that makes planets and heres a villian we took from the series to save time(an awesome villian however)<BR/><BR/>anyway, yeah film looks awesome getting good review, one pessimistic view isnt gonna change that, Trek Rules!WonderboyCozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17153052106948412361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845471204082714270.post-12851848832451763932009-04-10T00:47:00.000-04:002009-04-10T00:47:00.000-04:00LOL, this is were reading the entire post rather t...LOL, this is were reading the entire post rather then skipping to "the good stuff" can cause problems. Otherwise you would have noticed the second sentence "Be aware that the review includes a complete summary of the movie...".<BR/><BR/>Besides this has been a spoiler blog from day one.
