This isn't so much a "have you seen the new Star Trek movie?" message so much as it is a "if you haven't seen it, what are you WAITING FOR? GO! Now ( Read more... )

yeah, i was looking at the engine room and the hanger bay and going "well, that's it for the secondary hull... hope they don't mind sleepin' real close in the saucer" :)
i'd go see it again right now if i could.
and it's only by sheer force of will, and figuring that they'll be watching their new hot property's presence online Very Closely, that i'm not downloading a copy.
oh, and what did you think of their version of the original theme as the end credits?

In regards to the music - I MUST HAVE THAT SOUNDTRACK.

Ahem...

As to the End Credits version of the Alexander Courage theme? Outstanding! Very old school orchestral feel!

In fact, the composer (Michael Giaccono, I believe is the name) was also the guy who scored The Incredibles and the Speed Racer movie. He seems to have a really deft hand with rejuvenating old themes and making them awesome. And he tends to use a full orchestra and work in analog - recording the orchestra from live mics and such. (At least that's how he did it in The Incredibles.

Here's a link to one of my favorite tracks from the new movie in fact -

This is the "launch" music from when they're getting the Enterprise ready to go to actual Warp Speed. (Or to Sulu's "Did you leave the parking brake on?" moment. ^_^)

Oh - and this - right here.

Anyone who did not tear up during this scene, well they just have a black hole for a soul and there's nothing you can do for them.

This is what I was talking about in regards to heartstrings being pulled.
