Edit: That post already explains it. Not gonna add fuel to the fire because even I didn't catch the meaning of the title for a while there.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Missed the very last line. Sorry.

 

[Replicant]

Benadryl Cucumberpatch kind of killing my interest in this film. But then I remember the main cast and I'm somewhat excited again.

Does not compute.

 

[DrForester]

My expectations are low, but I will be there day 1.

I still have dim hopes that the villain isn't Khan, and that Abrams did something original with this wide, new reality he's created.

 

[Replicant]

Does not compute.

The worst part of this is not being able to explain the reason due to spoiler. So I'll just say that on top of that I don't really like his personality as an actor. But it mostly have to do with the plot.

 

[Error]

My body is so ready.

I can tell ya who it is in a PM if you want, my dear doctor!

 

[MisterHero]

lol I read the spoilers. Don't worry I won't say anything; watching is going to be the proper experience. Nice banner OP.

Set phazers for fun!

 

[hobz360]

Loved '09 Star Trek.... Can't wait to watch this!

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

I swear to god if one of you 'i read the spoilaz lulz' fuckers spoils this film I'm going to dedicate my forum time to spoiling every goddamn movie I see before you.

 

[The Elite]

Can't wait.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

I swear to god if one of you 'i read the spoilaz lulz' fuckers spoils this film I'm going to dedicate my forum time to spoiling every goddamn movie I see before you.

But if they read spoilers voluntarily, how is that a punishment?

[Snake]

Proud to say that I'm still unspoiled despite really wanting to settle some questions I have about this.

I won't be there day one, though. Maybe day three. Four, tops.

 

[lastplayed]

Incoming!

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Because the spoilers will be layered over naked pics of Solo.

Seeing on Monday.

Thanks for rubbing it in. Iron Man and now this, Canada left in the dark.

 

[The Librarian]

I swear to god if one of you 'i read the spoilaz lulz' fuckers spoils this film I'm going to dedicate my forum time to spoiling every goddamn movie I see before you.

So what you're saying is I should spoil the movie for you.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Because the spoilers will be layered over naked pics of Solo.

Ah. Mutually Assured Destruction.

 

[Dead]

Its like a triple dose rich creamy shit.

First layer is dog shit
Then horse shit
And finally Triceratops Shit

Basically a giant pile of shit!

 

[Talon]

Because the spoilers will be layered over naked pics of Solo.

Connery Solo or Craig Solo?

 

[3N16MA]

Bailing on this thread until it hits theaters in Canada.

 

[Tookay]

It's not like the other two names on that writing team are any better.

They're all hacks.

Shit, this is actually the 12th movie. I feel old.

 

[The Librarian]

BY THE WAY, Cumberbatch is playing an alternate version of Janeway who was born earlier and male instead of female.

 

[DrForester]

I would prefer that to Khan.

 

[B.K.]

I really hope they get someone other than Orci and Kurtzman to write Star Trek 3.

 

[G-Fex]

I am not quite as hyped as I should be.

 

[Wag]

I remember seeing the first movie when it came out. I was 12.

Spoiler

Boy did it suck.

It was better than Into Darkness will be.

 

[Vesmir]

It was better than Into Darkness will be.

And here we go. Trekkies who don't understand that their 'type of movie' will not only induce comas into 99% of people who will watch it, but will also bomb harder than John Carter (which would be a better movie by comparison).

 

[- J - D -]

No one ever gets tired in the Abrams Treks. They're all so energetic and running everywhere. So much running. SO MUCH RUNNING.

I'm not sure what you're trying to imply, but yes, John Carter is pretty great. Here's hoping Giacchino brings the same game to this movie that he did Carter.

 

[Wag]

I don't consider my a "Trekkie" but enjoy all things Trek (to a point), including JJ's last film. I'm sure if this movie is as good as the early reviews say it is I'll enjoy this one too.

I'm looking forward to it.

 

[Vesmir]

I'm not sure what you're trying to imply, but yes, John Carter is pretty great. Here's hoping Giacchino brings the same game to this movie that he did Carter.

I thought that movie was mediocre at its best parts. Not hard to see why it did so horribly (outside of the horrible marketing).

 

[Tookay]

He doesn't seem evil enough to pull it off.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

I don't want to hijack this thread, so you should probably just stop and accept that you're wrong about this thing you have a bad opinion on. John Carter was the best blockbuster of 2012.

 

[Daft_Cat]

Sounds like the buzz is it's not as good as the first one. Sucks.

 

[3N16MA]

I just knew this would break into a John Carter fight.

 

[Cheebo]

Sounds like the buzz is it's not as good as the first one. Sucks.

It's been getting great reviews so far. Trekkie fanboys who hated the first aren't a fair judge.

Nearly every single review on the tomato-meter is luke-warm and full of caveats. Not a single one that I can see flat out says it's a better film, lol.

Sounds like an enjoyably watchable, but dumb sequel.
