He's had his fair share of deriders. Especially over Mi:III.
Why i don't know. Mi:III was just as credible as those before it.
But anyway onto Star Trek...
This is a great movie, simply put. Consider the history that has to be
contended with.
JJ's done a fab job re-inventing (partially, anyway) the look and feel
of the franchise. He's freshened it and put the fun back into it,
without losing the scale of the universe in which our protagonists are
dealing with.
I can't wait for the next one, and judging by the box-office takings so
far, another run of Star Trek movies is definately on the cards...
Bring it on!
PS. A special mention has to go out to ILM, and the other EFX houses
involved in this picture. You are the unsung heroes of this type of
adventure
