Typical Austin TX faggot opinion

Funny cos I thought it was almost without question one of the greatest Star Trek related things I had ever witnessed.

Can we agree that this is the most retardest movie ever

>Kirk's character arc is that he is bored of peace and by the end of the film learns that the only time he feels alive is when the lives of millions are in peril and he can feel like a hero
>Bad guy's motivations are that he fought people in the military and he can't fight people in star fleet so he decides to use a superweapon that genocides people instead of just fighting them
>Pegg exploits Leonard Nemoy's death to use as a plot point and character development for Spock but it leads absolutely nowhere
>The crew is immediately separated as soon as they arrive so there is absolutely no time for them to grow and develop as characters by interacting with each other so they spend most of the film dicking around
>The Enterprise travels through the dangerous nebula with very little effort and in apparently no time at all
>At the end of the film drone fighter ships apparently have warp drives since they too seem to be able to bypass the dangrous nebula very quickly
>Bad guy is against unity yet his entire army is composed of drones
>Good guys argue that unity is good but the drone army's unity is the very thing that defeats them in the end
>An alien elf girl and a scotsman are able to repair a several hundred year old space ship by the time it takes the plot to move forward even though at the end of the film a time lapse shows an entire crew building a new enterprise
>the Franklin has to be dropped off a cliff to go to the atmosphere for some reason
>they ripped off Mars Attacks to beat the bad guys
>there are many other dumb things but I am tired

>Star Trek movie
>dirt bike on the poster

So glad I'm not into this retarded shit

So what does it go "beyond?"

beyond stupid

>Bones performs multiple feats integral to the story
>Bones is the only person trying to move kirk and spock to actually talk about and act upon their story assigned emotional baggage
>Not on the poster

these amorphous blobs of characters are better than the idiotic bastardizations from Into Darkness, however.

You forgot the shitty writing for Saldana, Spock, Badguy, and Alien Girl. The CGI of Kirk on the motorbike was laughably bad. Oh, and that absolutely pointless and shoehorned subplot about the Alien Girl's father and that random henchman.

It felt like it would have been a better television episode than a movie.

>Kirk's character arc is that he is bored of peace and by the end of the film learns that the only time he feels alive is when the lives of millions are in peril and he can feel like a hero

That's actually a good thing story-wise desu famalam, like literal irony. Kirk and Krall aren't different at all.

>Bad guy's motivations are that he fought people in the military and he can't fight people in star fleet so he decides to use a superweapon that genocides people instead of just fighting them

Fucking what? This manufactured-terror-act-because-peacetime-sucks is a huge fucking trope. Literally what the fuck are you even talking about? This guy was basically "Space Dick Cheney", literally in Wing Commander 4 Malcolm McDowell's final speech has him saying "Fighting keeps us Fit", in basically the same story.

>The crew is immediately separated as soon as they arrive so there is absolutely no time for them to grow and develop as characters by interacting with each other so they spend most of the film dicking around

We've literally had two entire movies of them growing and developing as characters. This is actually unexpected, and not repeating yourself in a sequel is good writing.

>The Enterprise travels through the dangerous nebula with very little effort and in apparently no time at all

Time compression. I'm actually not saying this is good or bad, just that it didn't bother me. And I had issues with Abrams' pacing in "Into Darkness".

>At the end of the film drone fighter ships apparently have warp drives since they too seem to be able to bypass the dangrous nebula very quickly

Were they even able to warp in the nebula? I remember them dodging asteroids from the station until pretty much when they reached that planet, on high-impulse.

>Bad guy is against unity yet his entire army is composed of drones

Dumb, guy. The movie, described as a return to Star Trek's "roots", is obviously social commentary of *unity_in_difference*.(1/2)

(2/2)

>Bad guy is against unity yet his entire army is composed of drones

Continuing, how can you not see that the federation (shown multicultural/species as fuck, with a gay Sulu), is not a social commentary on _diversity_.

Krall's army was essentially a hivemind. Like the Borg. The antithesis of diverse individuality, which was kind of Rodenberry's Jam.

>Good guys argue that unity is good but the drone army's unity is the very thing that defeats them in the end

See above

>An alien elf girl and a scotsman are able to repair a several hundred year old space ship by the time it takes the plot to move forward even though at the end of the film a time lapse shows an entire crew building a new enterprise

100ish, the ship was lost in the 2160s, and they're in the 2250s IIRC. Also future Materials Science is awesome, yo, I bet Starfleet shit would be made to last.

>the Franklin has to be dropped off a cliff to go to the atmosphere for some reason

You're right, I forget what the technobabble was (needing a drop to affect something to fly), but it was kinda goofy, yea.

>they ripped off Mars Attacks to beat the bad guys

That's actually kinda funny, they did.

>there are many other dumb things but I am tired

desu I think most of your points are dumb tbqh (to be quite honest) senpai (family). For the reasons specified.

Have a good night!

So, what happened to Chekov in the film?

>Kirk somehow thinks that a desk job as a rear-Admiral is more fulfilling than traveling around in a space-ship
>bad guy with a crew of 2 for some reason is able to take over planet full of mining operation drones who somehow have life rejuvenating powers that turn you into an alien for some reason
>The bad guy drone ships don't detect the Franklin's energy signatures when it takes off during the middle of them all leaving to attack the Yorktown even though the Franklin only had a visual cloak
>Alien elf girl's revenge subplot with the subcommander is never resolved
>Alien elf girl does not use clever tricks to beat alien subcommander like it was established earlier and instead just punches him
>Large chunks of boring action scenes and nothing happened in the movie so when the film remembered that it had to wrap up some character arcs it did it all in the last 2 minutes.

>motorbikes in space?

>>Kirk somehow thinks that a desk job as a rear-Admiral is more fulfilling than traveling around in a space-ship

literally the opposite thing happened retard, he didn't take the admiral position

faggot

>>bad guy with a crew of 2 for some reason is able to take over planet full of mining operation drones who somehow have life rejuvenating powers that turn you into an alien for some reason

bascially the Presidium from Mass Effect with robots nano-sized, except they rebuild biological beings endlessly the only way they know how, by mimicking the original aliens' biology.

>>The bad guy drone ships don't detect the Franklin's energy signatures when it takes off during the middle of them all leaving to attack the Yorktown even though the Franklin only had a visual cloak

Krall's tracking sensibilities are singular, as a hivemind. He only ever tracks one thing at a time. The enterprise/Kirk at the edges of space was one.

>>Alien elf girl's revenge subplot with the subcommander is never resolved

Typical ameriburger, needing death to be satisfied.

>>Alien elf girl does not use clever tricks to beat alien subcommander like it was established earlier and instead just punches him

She gave her confusion-creating holographic emitters to Kirk so that he had a better chance.

She didn't need them much because she wasn't the distraction. I thought they made that obvious.

>Large chunks of boring action scenes and nothing happened in the movie so when the film remembered that it had to wrap up some character arcs it did it all in the last 2 minutes.

"Blah blah I'm a faggot."

Go to bed cunt.

lol?

Pretty solid sci-fi action adventure summer blockbuster movie desu

Crushed by a space-jeep while trying to get his moon-mail

Did they say why Alice Eve wasnt in the movie?
Into Darkness ended with her being part of the family.

>Did they say why Alice Eve wasnt in the movie?

She contracted space-Chlamydia and antibiotics don't work in the future anymore because of overuse.

According to the MemoryAlpha Star Trek Wiki, she died of a complete uterine implosion 2 years after the end of "Into Darkness"

memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Carol_Marcus

Wrong reality though.

It was just a big budget stand alone episode instead of a sequel.

So just like a Star Trek episode ?

Maybe because they want to ignore Into Darkness, maybe because she said some "problematic" things

I fucking hated it. It had none of the suspense of the last two movies and the characters were uninteresting.

Scottie had waaaaaay too much screen time, stealing it from Spock and Kirk, two much more interesting characters. he was supposed to be comic relief, not a fucking main character. This movie made me hate Simon Pegg, I feel like he was given far too much creative control and ruined the movie. Also WTF was that weird ass intro?

I like you.

I completely agree. This movie was just that: boring, uninspired, 20% charme of the original star trek trio, cgi run of the mill action sequences.

typical hollywood "how to make a generic cgi action movie 101" shit.

ultimately boring and not worth anyones time.
