Default Re: OT: Star Trek Movie (XI)

I just like good star trek. I don't care if it reflects on moder day issues or not. I love it when it works and regret it when it does not. STMP didn't work, STTWOK did work.

TOS was far more military minded than the later incarnations. Kirk wasn't afraid to kick someones *** or employ a gambit. Picard, while one of my favorites depended upon the "lets talk it out" approach more than Gun Boat diplomacy.

When they finally were put together in that especially crappy script, generations, I felt sick over how horrible it had been done. But the chemistry was there, and I would have paid real money to see more of that on screen.

The last Star Trek movie, Nemesis, was a fantastic script, widdled down to a mind numbingly anti-star trek movie. Fans responded to this movie with an allergic reaction. No wonder given how many times the director re-wrote the script.

One thing I have noticed about movies of old compared to movies of now, the intelligence is deliberately written out of them now.
