and the fact that due to the score I half expected Batman to pop up on the bridge of the Enterprise I thought this was a very good outing for Trek.Anyone who thinks that this wasn't a better trek flick than Nemesis or that absolutely god-awful snooze-fest Insurrection is mad.

Karl Urban was great and despite what others have said I rather liked Pine as Kirk and his development through the film.Quinto was very good although i still think he had the easiest job of the three.Simon Pegg was very good too and although many seem to disagree i thought Bana was badass as Nero.

I thought it was plain to see that Orci and Kurtzman ARE Trek fans.I mean,really,is the casual cinema-goer or someone new to the franchise going to get the Kobayashi Maru?

Ya bunch of Kirk-Lovin Spocksuckers..........

Been waiting to get that line in for a while now

"The Undiscovered Country" score was much more Batman like. "Generations" was much more generic and television sounding then this new film's score. "Insurrection" and "Nemesis" are equally as forgettable as this new soundtrack. "The Voyage Home" was the worst of all, and the only Star Trek soundtrack album I have never owned.

Having Pine chomping on an apple during the Kobayashi Maru test (in the exact same way Shatner had in "Wrath of Khan" when McCoy, Savik, and Kirk are talking about the test) was great! Only a hard core fan would get that.
