So J.J. nailed it again?
And exactly how much lens flare is there in the movie? You know we have to ask.

For the most part, yes. BUT, I think there is one BIG moment that just smacks of cheap and lazy. It has it's issues, but it's still a bloody good fun movie.

So much so that I'm rather disappointed that he jumped ship to Star Wars, because he did such a great job with modernizing Star Trek and putting his own stamp on it that the next director to take over the reigns will have some pretty big shoes to fill.

As a member of Team Star Wars, I'm thrilled to have JJ on the winning team. #trolling!
I am the farthest form disappointed. His Trek movies really have the soul of Star Wars in them. And he is PERFECT for Star Wars even more so then Trek. JJ and Arndt together just gets me more and more excited about Episode VII.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I am just not that into Star Wars. I know the mythology, I've seen all the movies and all that, but I never really understood the fanboy community's obsession with it, most likely because it wasn't part of my childhood and I wasn't exposed to the entire franchise until I was already in my late teens. In my estimation at least, Stark Trek has always played second fiddle to Star Wars when it came to being a pop-cultural sci-fi phenomenon, so I was happy to see the underdog finally getting greater recognition and legitimacy in the eyes of the general movie-going population. I'd be great if Paramount can convince Brad Bird to take over the Star Trek franchise, because he already outdid Abrams once when it came to the Mission Impossible series.
lol. You know what, I didn't even notice it. I think it's still there, just not as much.
I think I know which moment you mean, I was really bummed by it.
I agree but I think it was done to show parallelism between the 2 multiverses.
I understand the parallel, I just didn't like how it played out.
I personally liked it and thought it was a nice way for Spock to confirm [BLACKOUT]his suspicions about Khan and then rigging those torpedoes. Spock is a Vulcan after all, and doesn't go with his 'gut feeling' like Kirk does[/BLACKOUT].
I'll definitely go see it again on Monday. If you get the chance to see it in IMAX, believe me it is worth the extra expense. This film looks gorgeous.
