Boldly going where no blog has gone before…well ok maybe not…

So here are my thoughts on the new Star Trek Movie. Generally it was good and I have to say I enjoyed it at the time of watching. Though after the movie was over I seemd to take it to pieces in my head to such a degree that I actually ended up thinking it wasn’t that great as I first thought. Here’s why:

The plot has more holes then swiss cheese..see next point

Stay away from time travel stories…they never work

How can a bunch of young people who have only just graduated from the academy be, by the end of the film, top officers on the FLAGSHIP of the federation…THE FLAGSHIP! Kirk goes from graduate to Captain in an astonishingly short time

Spock getting angry reminded me too much of Sylar…Seriously there is one point in the movie where he grabs Kirk by he neck and I swear he was going to do his “finger slice top of head to steal powers shtick”

Marooning Kirk on a frozen planet with hardly enough equipment to survive surely goes against all Geneva conventions concerning mutinous crew…well they are in space so maybe the federation dropped the Geneva convention..what was wrong with sending him to the brig like any sane captian would do?

Lucky though that considering the size of the planet he was able to land not too far from Old Spock

Little Monster being eaten by big monster…that scene annoyed me and I didn’t know quite why and then it hit me…they had the exact same sequence in The Phantom Menace!!!

Anyway as reboots so bad that it would get me angry and I did enjoy it far more then the travesty that was Wolverine….
