So now I've seen "Startrek Into Darkness" and "Ironman 3"

Ironman 3. Hands down.

The Startrek movie, well...

It was lame. Quite a letdown from the first reboot movie.

1. I disagree about Star Trek...

Saw it today and I thought it was much better than the first one.
I also saw Now You See Me and I loved it from the first minute to the surprising end. I highly recommend it.

2. So you loved watching the universe's dumbest super genius?

I mean, seriously.

When you stop and think about it, you get this "wait, wut?" feeling that all the villains are trying desperately to give dumbshit Kirk a chance to survive.

What was the admiral thinking when he put those pop-sickles in the torpedoes? If he wanted to kill them, why not kill them instead of handing them to Kirk? Stupid move, Admiral. And then the villain taking the torpedoes thinking the pop-sickles were still in them, and they were unarmed.

Seriously? A super-genius villain and he fell for that?

What a lamefest.

3. yeah but there was a tribble.

I enjoyed that!

I liked the silly parts.

[Xipe Totec]

4. Ok, I'll grant you that. One tribble makes up for a whole mess of bad plot lines. nt

5. Oh you're no fun!

6. The basic premise is that Starfleet would give a huge ship to this brash fuck up.

The second basic premise... in the far enlightened future, Starfleet is run by a bunch of white American men.

Seriously, I don't think JJ Abrams quite gets what Star Trek is about. What we're watching is a well-funded fan-fic.

7. Star Trek Into Darkness: J.J. Abrams film is movie karaoke

Here’s what you need to know about Star Trek Into Darkness, the second movie reboot to replace the original TV cast with fresh young actors in the exact same roles: it’s karaoke, like buying tickets to see the Rolling Stones, then finding out they’ve passed the torch to a faceless, eager-to-please cover band.

Hey, it’s not so bad: they look like the Stones, vaguely; they sound like the Stones, sort of; they even play Stones songs, if not better than the original group, then twice as loud.

And midway through the show — after they’ve mangled the guitar hook from “Satisfaction” — a video screen projection of a grizzled Keith Richards appears to give them a thumbs up endorsement: Right on, dudes. You have my blessing.

8. Oh daaaamn!

If that review was a game of dodgeball, Abrams would be rubbing his overpaid nuts right about now.
