My opinion (yes, humble, I know many will disagree, and am not interested in a flame war) is that this allows them so much: and instead of doing "wrath of khan" (or whatever) in better graphics and with younger acters, they should focus on being relevant to today in exploration of themes.
Ideally, I'd say the conflict between the rising federation and the Klingon empire (china "threat" to usa), and the aftermath of a lack of Vulcan tutelage for Federation (a bit more gritty?).
As a kid I loved star trek. But it's old; and it's not very good (though phenomenal for it's time). They flew to the edge of galaxy with Kirk, does anyone remember that? And there was a barrier? Star Trek was awesome: but it had a lot of crap pilled up in the tvseries.
A great movie and a clean slate allow them to forget old storylines and retconning that disease of comic books- and focus on STAR TREK: exploration of space - leading to exploration of ethics and humanity. Whichwas thepoint of it.
@benofirefly Thing is, apparently the barrier was created years BEFORE Kirk, where this movie is what happens when Bana goes back in time and kills Kirks dad,Vulcan and spocks mother, so the Barrier would still be there.
no i just dont like the way they made the new one.....i miss that atmosphere of the old ones....this star trek was made for the money and mainstream....Hollywood simply has no ideas anymore...and ppl like u are the ones who make sure that they will keep doing that...simply by saying the new star trek plays in a parallel universe makes me wanna spit on that dude who had that idea.....
This piece of music is stunning, particularly from 0:38 - 2:46.
I hadn't seen this film for years, then it was on TV a couple of weeks ago. I'd forgotten how much I love it. I hardly think it's the best Star Trek film, but it is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of my favourites. I always loved the music as a child. For the first film not to feature anybody from the original Star Trek, they did a good job. I love the original series, but this film really helped me get into Next Gen.
the show isnt bad, but all the new Stuff will never be as good as the Originials....kirk, mccoy, scotty, spock, zulu,uhura and chekov are the heros of my childhood...the last star trek was the biggest crap i ever saw in star trek universe.....
But it was. And the whole industry and critics agree with it. And butthurt purists don't have a point in criticizing it for anything, really, ESPECIALLY the people that talked about plotholes or scientific inconsistencies... because almost all Trek movies/episodes had them, and Trekers ignore that.
Or maybe you're an elitist and doesn't like the idea of non-trekers enjoying the film?
SSSSWWWUUUUPPP.......We are the borg...lower your shields and surrender your ship.....we will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own.....your culture will adapt to en-service us....Resistance..... is Futile......SSSSWWWUUUUPPP
@NonstopRam- First Mate on Enterprise, no question. Jim Kirk may have been speaking about the Captain's chair, but he says it best in "Generations": "...don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship because while you're there, you can make a difference."
I like the opening theme... especially since this movie is one of my favorites from Generation while the other one is The Search for Spock even though that's from the original series...
15 years, wow has it been that long! Insurrection has the best End Titles. BUT this has the best Introduction. This smooth track with the main cast credits rolling in and out of focus... still makes me fell grand after all this time. Bravo Jerry!
I would've loved it if they'd brought Lilly along with them into the future. I know, I know. The time police would have a bitch fit! But, I think she'd have made a great ship's cousellor. Plus, Alfre Woodard is regal, and beautiful!! "The Borg. Our most lethal enemy....."
