You can look at a piece of lovingly-crafted furniture, and get great pleasure from what you see.
Or you can look at a piece of ikea "just do enough to make idiots give us money for it" cr@p, if you like. But that's not fun.
Replacing the former with the latter can only result in disappointment.

I can agree to that. In Paramount's infinite wisdom, by allowing these alternate timeline movies, they in fact had to change canon to accommodate them and destroy Romulus in the primary timeline. Way to go  Blow up Romulus just as Picard helped to bring the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire closer to peace in Nemesis. It's like they are trying to destroy Star Trek just like they did with Star Wars VI by just remaking episode 4 in a bid for a nostalgia dollars.
And yes, The Force Awakens was a rehash of A New Hope

If he isn't William Shatner, he isn't Captain Kirk.
I would favor a return to the Next Generation era. Perhaps a plot involving "Admiral Picard" sending Captains Worf and Riker off on some perilous mission. Or, revisiting Deep Space 9 (my fav ST series) with some new creepy aliens coming through the wormhole. Let the 23rd century rest.
Sometimes the true reward for completing a task is not the money, but instead the satisfaction of a job well done. But it's usually the money.

I kind of enjoyed it. It is not that Star Trek - it is more Star Trek anyway. I won't buy the discs but for a lazy evening at the cinema with my Trekkie girlfriend and my friends it's worth its money... provided it is a cheap cinema (I paid 10.80€ for two tickets so it counts).

I have to rant about this: (If you don't like rants move along...)
How in the world can a space ship withstand hitting rocks, mountains and trees and come to rest with hardly a dent. But an alien ship can just fly right through the shell without meeting any resistance? In the prior movie, it was knocking over buildings. Why can't they build the buildings out of the same stuff they make space ships out of?

Obviously they build the buildings out of cheaper materials, after all, the buildings aren’t expected to go through those tough space battles. 
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

Italian already got there with a couple of mashups with famous Italian songs like "Acqua e Sale" (Celentano - Mina) and "Trottolino Amoroso" (Minghi - Mietta).
I spent the morning laughing at those mashups! I'll wait for the next ones!

This seems to be the original one. What you heard was the alternate of this.

You're probably right. This was a lot more entertaining.
