Then they wouldnt be compared to anybody and they could do what they like with the characters. If they wanted something from Roddenberry, why not use his original idea for the series [never shot] of the USS Yorktown and Capt Robert April. <br /> <br />An even better idea would be the adventures of the Enterprise under Capt Christopher Pike. They'd have a younger Spock as the science officer [perfect for a younger actor] and a new strong female lead in No. 1. <br /> <br />There are just so many good, ORIGINAL ideas they could have gone with - to just totally re-boot and re-do the original [which was brilliant] - is just such a pointless waste. 3 Thumbs Down!!!

Harris Fri, 22 Jan 2010 16:54:54 +0000 http://atatheatrenearyou.org/star-trek/#comment-646 Absolutely dissatisfied with this product. I was certainly hopeful, after all of the wonderful product reviews that have already been posted here on Amazon, but it would not even play or bring up the menu screen in my Blu-ray player. The player didn't even recognize that there was a disc in there. It was almost as if there was nothing in there at all. Be sure to check out my picture of this product by staring at any empty spot in the space a few feet in front of you. <br /> <br />If anything changes after the November release date of this product, I will come back and update my review and rating at that time. I may be able to provide a better picture at that time as well. <br /> <br />Pros: <br /> <br />No box or material of any kind was used in creating this product (info accurate as of 8/21/09). Can't get any greener than that. <br /> <br />Cons: <br /> <br />Wouldn't play or even be recognized by my player. I expected more, based on the overwhelmingly positive product reviews of this non-existent product. Rating: 1 / 5 Absolutely dissatisfied with this product.

When the next movie gets made! <br /> <br />Trans max warp whatever teleporters in the next new movie that can be used to jump from one planet to the other side of the Universe thereby negating the reason to move around in all those bright shiny heaps of metal? Never heard of it! <br /> <br />Matter munching big red jaw breakers? What's that..? Can't hear.. you~ la~ la-la- laa~ laaaaa~ not looking at you... ooh pretty flowers...... <br /> <br />Star Trek just rubs me in so many bad ways as a ardent reader of Written Science Fiction. The ideas thrown around usually in any star trek show has me asking why didn't they just teleport a fricking bunch of Bombs thru-out the Entire ship of the aliens? They could teleport two dude into it (wait a sec, doesn't it have shields that prevent that?- never mind. It's star trek)... Even if the federation is a bunch of tree hugging hippies, they could still teleport bombs into the engine and drill bit right? Where was that "logical" alien dude on the good guys ship gonna think out of his pants and get the clue? <br /> <br />Don't get me started on that "car chase". A simple EMP burst would've killed the engine and no trips into a gorge for little timmy. boo fricking hoo. SPACE VECHICLES being built on the bottom of a GRAVITY WELL? Shucks, what was I a tinking.. it'sa star trekky~ <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Ugh. Rating: 1 / 5 The Big, Bright, Shiny.. Red, Candy Colored, RESET Button. When the next movie gets made!

Its more Fantasy than Science Fiction and completely not Canon. This movie is very low brow, geared toward the uneducated and uninformed. Fanboys and some sad Trekkies may buy this movie, but the die hard Trekkers such as myself will not walk, but Run from this movie. <br /> <br />Blu Ray is also just a Fad so save your money!
