Star Trek

It may very well be that I'm the last person on Earth to have seen the latest "Star Trek" movie.

So why didn't someone warn me it would SUCK?!?!?

What sucks most is that it would have been a good movie if it hadn't been a "Star Trek" movie. The effects and sets were true enough to the old series yet modern enough to be impressive. The characters were good, though I didn't think they were very true to the original characters. Spock was way too emotional, Uhura was way too slutty, and Kirk was never that cool. I've heard that McCoy was the worst, but of everyone, I enjoyed him the most. Chekov and Sulu were okay, but McCoy was definitely my favorite. I thought he was the one who stayed most true to the original series.

The major problem I had with the movie, though, was that they completely departed from the original series - ALL OF THEM. Spock's mother appears in "Next Generation," not to mention the whole planet of Vulcan. They've gone and nullified three series and every other movie that was made, and I think that's so disrespectful of all of the people who worked on those stories and series and movies.

When a series has been going on as long as "Star Trek" has, you just don't do stuff like that.

I'm not a big fan of the old series, but I really found this movie insulting to all of that.

There's my two cents.
