I saw it in 3D last night. While I was impressed with the 3D effects, I was not as impressed with the story. There were some things in this one I just found...wrong. Anyone else seen it?

Watched it opening night on Wednesday here in 3d. I loved the entire movie until one scene in particular, not sure I want to spoil it but it's a particularly violent scene for Star Trek.0

My brief and non-spoilery thoughts on Star Trek: Into Darkness: Having a super cool Benedict Cumberbatch is enough to make me forgive almost anything. Too bad there was so much that required forgiveness. Also, LENS FLARE!!!0

Thankfully the lens flare was toned down this time, too many 3D lense flares may actually cause blindness

I didn't go but plan too...one of my friends went and she said she LOVED it and if I wanted to go she would see it again that was how much she enjoyed it!0

I saw it. And all I'm gonna say is this: I wish a man would love me as much as Spock loves Kirk.0
-
I really liked it. One particular Spock line I found a bit comical. But Benedict Cumberbatch...
It was pretty epic.0 -
I went to see if in 2D because I discovered from the Hobbit that I hate 3D and it totally distracts from the story.
I am a giant Star Trek geek (yes, I have seen every episode of every show, old, new and in between) and I thought it was amazing. It had all the humor and character development I want from my Star Trek plus more gritty realism, ala Enterprise, which I particularly loved.0 -
Saw it in 2D due to a mix up with the wife (she went the day prior to get tix) and enjoyed it. Actually want to go and see it in 3D as I could see multiple times where they way they shot was meant to be 3D. You can tell that the story is very shaped by current events and by (relatively) current themes in scifi/fantasy (almost like JJ read too much Martin while watching older John Woo films). For the first time in quite awhile I actually want to see it again...that says a lot.0

I saw it on Sunday . It was ok , but my heart will always be with the force 0

Saw it Saturday night and quite enjoyed it.. And Im a hard core treker lol... there were 1 or 2 things that made my star trek heart stutter a little but it also cracked me up in that I'm-a-geek-who-watched-the-old-school-and-know-the-inside-joke kinda way ...0

Thank you! I couldn't agree more.0 -

Fourthed. Which might mean there are whales!!
I didn't like the first refranchise, but loved this, I've alredy pre ordered the DVD!!
Did you see the fabric on the uniforms had tiny star fleet symbols woven into it!! I loved all the little details!!0 -
It was eye candy and very visually impressive... Would have been a good movie if it wasn't a "Star Trek" movie. I felt like it didn't really uphold the really uphold to the Trek standard story wise.0

Care to elaborate?0 -
So..... do you think there will be a David Marcus?
Because without him there's no Genesis probe!!!
Personally, I'd have liked to see a few more of Kahn' s crew!! They were quite yummy in the other time line!!0 -
I went to the double feature. Had seen the first one before but my company hadn't. All over, I definitely liked the first one better. I just thought the story was more interesting and, of course, it was fun to see how the new actors were playing the young versions of characters everyone knows so well.
But what really made the second amazong was Benedict Cumberbatch's performance. Wow, that man can act!0 -
I saw the movie last night and I really enjoyed it! I hadn't seen the first one until Friday night and it was SUPER cheese-tastic. I'm not a huge Star Trek fan (I only ever watched TNG as a youngster), so I'm sure a lot of stuff went over my head. I liked the story in this one much more and Benedict Cumberbatch....Ugh. Amazing! I love him!! He did a fantastic job and was by far the best part of the movie.0
-
I loved it! Had the great somewhat cheesy one liners...awesome action...great character development...all in all a great movie. Makes me want to go rewatch the "other" Star Trek movie involving Kahn...0

I've now seen it 3 times at the theatre and it really is growing on me. Last time I went I really focused on the special effects, scenery and music. Now for me that's where the movie really shines!0

i hope for the next movie they stop rehashing old story ideas. is the Probe going to show up and make them have to save the whales again? i sure hope not.0
-
If I had to guess the next movie will be about the Federation / Klingon war based on the events of STID0

Yes, but with a twist, where humans are extinct in the future and the whales travel back in time to save humans!0 -
I loved it. The way in connected the old series to the new one was great. I totally didn't expect it. (I'm trying to be vague so that I don't spoil anything, but I could really go on about it.) I have to say that it was really well done.
The one thing that I would have liked to see is Bones taking a larger role. The original series had a lot more Spock-McCoy conflict in it. They did it a bit, but I think that they can work on it and expand it. Perhaps for Star Trek 3...0 -
I hated it. Like, friggen HATED it.0

Why's that?
I do agree it wasn't as good though, I probably had high expectations since I really liked the first one a lot.0
