I'm off from my second job Tuesday through Friday next week-- feel free to speak with me concerning Pooping, D&D, Comics, Batman (the animated series), fiber supplements (see Pooping), Naruto, Dragonball Z, The New Streetfighter Game Which I Haven't Played Yet, or Jacks.
It felt like someone made a generic sci-fi/action flik, and then had someone come on screen every 4.5 minutes to should "HAY GUYS, THIS IS STAR TREK!".
I mean, I'm glad the franchise is alive and well, but it's changed too much for me to recognize it, and I don't like what it's become.
Like the guy who played McCoy is obviously a good actor, but rather than ape DeForest Kelley's mannerisms or try to shoehorn in the "Bones" nickname (since 'sawbones' isn't a popular nickname for 'doctor' anymore), they could have just gone their own direction, ya know?
Really, I liked Shaun of the Dead as Scotty, but that's about it. I was highly annoyed when, partway through the movie, my cell rang and it was Leonard Nimoy phoning it in.

Also, like the original show, it was full of gender fail.

And yeah, I generally don't talk about it because, aside from you two, I only know one other geek who didn't like it.
