Which Albert King song references Star Trek?
I know his music is in the Star Trek universe and it makes sense as Star Trek is supposed our future, but I’d think they wanna stay away from things that reference Star Trek at a TV show or film series…
I actually wish they had played “Intergalactic” instead of “Sabotage”.

Young Gene Roddenberry fell through a temporal anomaly during WWII, and actually met Kirk and Spock. Spock’s attempt to erase Gene’s memories of the encounter was only partially successful, as it subconsciously came out in his later tv writing. TOS in turn inspired one of Amanda Grayson’s ancestors to name their child Spock, a name Amanda recalled when naming her Vulcan son.
No copies of TOS are known to exist in the 23rd century, as Khan attacked Paramount in the 1990’s, feeling a certain episode mocked him.
And now you know the rest of the story. 😉

Saw Star Trek Beyond yesterday… Loved it. Out of the recent ones (liked Trek '09, loathed Into Dorkness) this is probably the best. It’s defo the most Treky of the three.

I agree entirely.
As for the Beastie Boys dilemma, I imagine Kirk eventually tries to go back in time and see a Beastie Boys concert. Hijinks ensue, and eventually someone in the group has to be pinched by Spock.

Man, it sure is lonely here on Beyond-Was-The-Weakest-Of-The-New-Star-Trek-Movies Island.
It’s also a pain to write my address on letters.
Yeah I’m with you guys. Beyond was great. It was nice to finally have another actual Star Trek movie.

This is now canon for me.

It has to be something like that.
I’m not sure how to feel about this.

I don’t recall Evil Shatner having red skin and horns in “The Enemy Within”. Was that just a delayed result of the separation that didn’t have enough time to manifest before the two Kirks were re-merged?

Lol. One of his songs appears in Into Darkness.
I don’t know exactly what it is, but something about the dark atmosphere Nemesis is honestly my favorite Star Trek movie. Although I like several of the others almost as much. II and VI are really good as well.
Nemesis is honestly my favorite Star Trek movie.
Holy shiite. I might actually hate you for real now.

I thought posting Adam Sandler gifs was the worst thing someone could do on this forum.
I was wrong.
Can I ask WHY you like the most the movie which makes absolutely NO sense at all? I’m honestly curious.
Its like all good and stuff.
I dunno though it is strange because I generally agree with everyone else about the quality of the other star trek films, except I also like that one.
But you didn’t just say it was good (which is a crime in of itself), you said it was the best.

No no no, he said his favorite, which doesn’t necessarily mean best. For example, I think Fury Road is the best Mad Max movie, in terms of quality, but Road Warrior is my favorite.

I actually didn’t. I said it was my favorite. Huge difference.
I think it’s good but I don’t think Its “objectively” the best. I just enjoy it the most.
Semantics aside, it’s still crazy.

I know, but since none of his music references Star Trek as a TV show or names any characters in said show, it creates no problems.
The Beastie Boys do. And so it does create a problem.
Well, in the Trek universe, the lyrics refer to a slap on the butt from Dr. Spock. 😉

I have finally seen Beyond.
A few observations including MINOR SPOILERS
Negatives
the first sequence. WTF was that? It was quite depressing to watch, to be honest after seeing it I thought I will hate the movie. Not a good start and way too fast.
action scenes. I don’t really remember when was the last time I have seen a movie where I hated every single action scene. Extreme closeups and shaky-cam? I thought that shit died out 10 years ago. Not only I had no idea what’s going on in most of the scenes, during the white chick vs monster man fight I honestly thought I’m gonna throw up, I had to close my eyes for a few seconds and take a few deep breaths. I thought that the guy who directed F&F movies would know how to shoot action scenes. I admit however I haven’t seen the F&F movies except almost the full first one.
the crash sequence. When I’ve seen the Enterprise D saucer crash on the planet, I was sad. When I’ve seen the JJPrise saucer crash on the planet, I was bored.
CG effects. While the Enterprise looked more beautiful than in the previous 2 movies, in many cases the CGI was simply bad. It’s quite distracting when you know that (almost) all of the “Breen” were CG, and when you know when you’re watching 2 people in front of a green screen composited in a fake background. It takes you out of the movie. Hollywood, please stop using CGI stunt doubles. They look like shit and distract the audience.
Krall. WTF was that twist at the end? Seriously, did they ever explain why can he turn into a guy with fake looking prosthetics?
Positives
all the dialogue scenes. Every single scene where 2 people (or humanoids) were just talking was simply GREAT. I mean it felt like I’m watching a Star Trek movie. If this was done by Simon Pegg, please, PLEASE, Paramount, let him rewrite EVERY future Trek script. I absolutely LOVED it.
J-lo. That’s what I call a well written “strong” female character. I love her and that comes from a man labelled on youtube as a sexist and misogynist because I dared to dislike the Fembusters. Please include her in Trek 14
Caaaaan’t stand it, I know you planned it. Why was the worst part of the trailer one of the best parts of the movie?
Humour. After the depressing opening I definitely didn’t expect to laugh so much.
And I definitely didn’t expect to cry. Every time they respectfully talked about one of my childhood heroes, I almost cried. At the end, when they unexpectedly showed the Star Trek 6 promo picture, I simply lost it. For the first time in 3 movies. Great job.
Definitely my favourite of the reboot movies.
