Yes In a Mirror Darkly was the best Star Trek in Years and Fucking rocked. The last time is saw something so awesome was scotty on the enterprise D holodeck original 1701 bridge.
EdenFX did those Incredible updates on the old series effects style in cgi on In a mirror darkly.They should have done the effects on the remaster instead of cbs digital. I think they also did the effects on Nemesis though that were less than stellar.
These are the voyages was a joke. Second worse Trek i have seen in Modern times since Nemesis. Yeah the old series had bad episodes during the third Season but at least those are campy fun. You Know Spock's Brain and Turnabout Intruder.
Despite what Trekkies say Enterprise was True to the spirit of the original series and i was sad when it was cancelled. Gene Jr who is known ad "rod" embraced the show.
I cannot say the same thing about the new movie, it neither looks or feels to be at heart Roddenberry Star Trek. In Fact it is Trek remade in JJ's own image. It will be slick and Fast faced like most of his works but largely empty of any substance. This is the guy who likes Jerking people around with Plot twists and insane drama on his shows. Yet Lost and Alias at the end of watching them was mostly a wtf? Like a mind fuck basically, same with Cloverfield. Gets you to go hmm and maybe think for a bit but there is no emotional attachment to any characters and his series are loose on themes except for quick cuts and lots of action. He be perfect for a Jason Borne movie just not Star Trek.
