Official Star Trek Thread

Into Darkness pissed me off so much that I gave up on Star Trek after watching it.

It's almost as if this film was a singularity; a film so creatively bankrupt that it became self-aware and spiteful, to the extent that it turned what is probably universally acknowledged to be the most poignant moment in the entire Star Trek universe (Spock's death) into an awesomely lame in-joke. Star Trek died then and there for me.
 
I think Beyond is a much better film, even if the ending is fairly stupid, but at least it has better character moments than Into Darkness. But yeah, Into Darkness is a giant turd. Star Trek has done giant turds before (V) but at least V is funny to watch. Modern Trek is very hit and miss for me, but Strange New Worlds has really hit. Excellent tv show.
