TartanJon Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 As much as I don't like the fantasy/Sci-fi genre I do want to see this film.Not in 3D though.That's just fekkin stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phart Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 From the initial reviews it seems to be living up to the hype, which is some achievement. Having JJ Abrams in charge and keeping Lucas as far away from it as possible were key, I imagine. Will probably watch on a plane in a few months. he made a khunt of lost and star trek, in my eyes.

DonnyTJS Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) he made a khunt of lost and star trek, in my eyes. The main problem with Star Trek, it seemed to me, was the millstone of having Chris Pine as Kirk hanging round its neck - quite enjoyable otherwise, not that I'm an aficionado. Didn't know he was involved in Lost and I've never seen it. Edited December 16, 2015 by DonnyTJS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacWalka Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Happy for JJ (Why can't he just have a normal name, pretentious fanny) to be the Director of the first of the new films but don't want any director to have the reins to more than one film. I prefer films in these "Shared Universes" to be as stand alone as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phart Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I'm a total Trekker, i've never went to see the new films in the new universe. I'll have to watch starwars on a big screen i guess. Regardless of the 30 years that passed since i watched the first ones Jedi's are still cool as feck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trekker is what Trekker call themselves, trekkies is what non-trekkers call trekkers.

Only seen the Kirk movies too. They just weren't that good. Guess I was too old for them by the time they came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Star Trek and been a big fan for years. Would never describe myself to anyone though as a Trekkie (and certainly not a Trekker).........

phart Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 so how do you know JJ made a khunt of it? or by not going to see, you mean you watched at home? Aye had previously went to cinema to see other ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenfrewBlue Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 maybe. or maybe not clever enough.

killiefaetheferry Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Pretty much. Ri-ri rocks it Actually, now that I'm off the bus and have the time to tell you about it....... Home is actually a critique of the abuse of power, and a study of how neo-liberal government can use mainstream media to lie to a population about an imaginary or exaggerated threat from a foreign 'terrorist' source, which could result in the destruction of that population, in order to gain the consent of that population for continued governance and protection. It also embraces themes of family loyalty, love, and how different races can grow to understand each other, and work together for the greater good to overthrow their lying, self-centred scumbag government. In a cartoony way. Inside Out is contrived nonsense which contradicts itself at every turn. It was only my 2 year old sleeping in my lap, and my 4 year old hudnae finished his pick'n'mix that stopped me storming out of the cinema in disgust.

Return of Yermaw Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Aye had previously went to cinema to see other ones. You are not alone in that but I would much more happily watch the reboots than sit through Insurrection, Nemesis or pretty much any episode of Voyager. Note I didn't add the generally maligned The Final Frontier to that - anything with the original cast and the line "excuse me, but why does God need a spaceship" is okay with me.
