I didn't last 15 minutes before I shut it off because of motion sickness, which I almost never have an issue with.

My thoughts:

1. I was either told by someone or read that a new Star Trek trailer would be shown prior to QofS. IT WAS NOT. :mad: So I was really pissed off right off the bat.

2. However, I enjoyed this movie very much. Not as good as the last one, but certainly in the same zip code. The director must be a seriously twitchy ****er - the endless quick camera cuts during the action sequences bordered on annoying, but not enough to derail the film. I liked the story, found it to be much more interesting that the critics indicated (big shock there).

3. If you miss the foppish, gadgety Bond, go rent one of the 150 prior movies. This Bond ain't that, and IMO, that's a good thing.

P.S. The opening song did indeed suck donkey dick. Ugh. What has been heard, cannot be unheard. :banghead:

I went in thinking I'd hate it. That may have helped. Plus, I really really liked the girl who played Marlena. Too bad she exploded. :(

Abrams was one of the producers (i.e., helped to fund the film).

He didn't write or direct.

That's like hating "The Mask of Zorro" and blaming it on Speilberg because he's one of the producers.

Just sayin'.

I thought he was a creator on that flick? Guess that earns him a pass then.

I enjoyed the cheesiness of Zorro though.

Is that the first one or the second one? I liked the first one, never watched the second because I heard it sucked (my "It never happened" sequel defense).
