I love-love-LOVED the movie. Even looking back on Alex's list of flaws, like ISM, those things just didn't bug me at the time. I was too caught up in the fun of it. And quite frankly, the flaws still don't bug me. And I'd consider myself a Star Trek uber-geek.

The franchise has really suffered after Voyager and Enterprise (which I see as more symptoms than causes really) and was in need of a major jolt if it was ever going to get going again. In fact, I'm really surprised anyone was even brave enough to try. When I first heard a new Star Trek movie was in the works I was very worried, fearful, and even disappointed (again...big fan here). What this movie has done is extraordinary and has brought new life to the franchise.

I look forward to seeing it again this weekend.
