The enemy wants to weaponize the Doomsday Machine and Starfleet sends the Enterprise to stop them. Nuff said!

I have liked both ST films, however I was abit dissapointed with the way in which the whole Khan thing panned out. It was cringeworthy to see the roles reversed between Spock and Kirk (a blatent rip off of ST:II bar a few lines of script, not happy about that!) and it was equally shocking for Kirk to be conveniently revived (massive plothole)! At least in the original was more believeable. I don't mind old plots being rewritten and deployed differently but I can't stand the fact the writters got lazy on this scene, I could have been epic and emotionally charged however it came across as cheap and flat. I really hope the writers come up with a unique story for the next film, something a little less unrealistic

By then, all of the love everyone felt with Star Trek 2009 was long gone and forgotten. Second, because they were trying to be cleaver and kept Khan a secret. If instead they would have promoted that it was Khan and played up how awesome B. Cumberbatch was going to be, I swear it would have done better! Who the hell wants to go see a movie about John Harrison??? They will definitely make a third, almost half a billion worldwide isn't chump change you fools!

I saw it multiple times in theaters, and everyone I saw it with loved it, too. I think the poorer box office was due to such a crowded summer and Star Trek being unable to totally shake off its nerdy brand name. The only people who seemed to dislike it were tools on the Internet (*clears throat*). Star Trek has been by far the best reviewed big film of the summer–check out Rotten Tomatoes if you don't believe me.

I really really REALLY want J. J. to direct the third film, but I keep having to tell myself it's unlikely. I'll be so pissed if he stops directing Trek to shift entirely to Star Wars (which will probably happen, which means I most likely will end up pissed). As a Trekkie who has never been a Star Wars fan, it just breaks my heart. But I'm still holding out hope!

Let's see what some other directors can do.
