oXYnary

http://www.pacsci.org/imax/comingsoon.html

If so we better decide a time and date asap as those tickets go fast.

Tumerboy

Cryptic's taking us on Friday, can't wait, hope it's not a bucket of vomit.

00Zero

lol. im going with workmates as well. better be good....

Justin Meisse

I was halfway through a commercial for the new Star Trek before I realized it wasn't a Fast & Furious Trailer

Ferg

so far it's gettin amazing reviews from the people who've screened it, though who knows how much of that is marketing bs

00Zero

lol justin. Yea i thought it was pretty cool (wasnt expecting star trek) until they showed the space scenes.

Tumerboy

ya, me too, every time it comes on, I'm like, "wtf movie is THIS? . . . OHHHHhh right, I've seen this like 15 times already."

bearkub

I am hoping this turns out to be pretty good. The trailers have given me a small shard of hope.

Vito

I am seeing it at an advance screening, on IMAX, Monday (tomorrow) night.

Just thought I'd gloat.

how cool is that?! Yea really looking forward to this one, I've heard tale that this movie is Star Trek II the Wrath of Khan good.

Slum

Yup, going with work too. Seems like all game developers are uber Star Trek nerds.

Looks pretty cool. I'm not a Star Trek fan, but I am a J.J. Abrams fan. I'm optimistic, at least.

Jesse Moody

Yeah Raven is taking us as well. Can't wait. Hopefully this wont be a let down like Wolverine was.

Oh man wolverine was a let down... well hopefully this won't be.

Touchy ground rebooting Star Trek.

I'm kind of tossed on the trailers so far. I'm getting tired of the hero running from a big ugly only to have the big ugly eaten by something that gets eaten by something that gets crushed in some way. Later the Hero (who survived by luck alone) is praised and legends are seeded.

Looking forward to it, but probably won't catch it on the big screen, much less the big big screen.

notman

Yeah, that part of the trailer bothered me. They did that in Star Wars Episode 1, and it actually made me kring (there's always a bigger fish). Is there something wrong with the danger of the first creature? We needed a bigger creature?

Anyway, I won't let one crap scene kill a movie for me

ae.

lol wait didnt raven make the wolverine game?

00Zero

LOL yea

Mark Dygert

Game was in production before the movie was ya?

oXYnary

So anyone wanting to go here are the times.

http://www.pacsci.org/imax/nowshowing.html

I was thinking Friday would be bad/crowded. Thursday would be all the hardcore Trekkies. So Saturday Evening or Sunday Morning? (For those interested in Seattle).

Sunday at 10:30AM (Probably want to be there at 9 not to get stuck in a nose bleeder).

Or

Saturday at 6:30 or 9:00PM

meatle

don't forget your DELUXE SPOCK MASK

Rwolf

Saw a advance screening on Monday. You won't be disappointed! (then again I watched wolverine the day before, so big difference)

ScoobyDoofus

Aw, heck. I thought it was coming out today. Here I was all pumped thinking I was going to run out to the theaters tonight.

Justin Meisse

OH man, I thought the Fast & Furious comparison was a bad thing! Is 29 that old? I dunno, I feel old now :P

SHEPEIRO

i liked it, fun romp of film, thought sfx were great and really enjoyed the referential humor, but scottys accent!...

Slipstream

Gonna go see it in IMAX in an hour. Stoked for this

Movie was awesome! It was way better than I thought it would be, plus IMAX made it that much better. Kinda got lost with the characters, but I haven't really watched much Star Trek. The only thing I didn't really like was Winona Ryder, but that's just for personal reasons. Can't wait for the next one!

Farfarer

Off to see it this evening for my mate's birthday. Never really gotten along with Star Trek, so it should be interesting...

Luxury

LENS FLARE: The Movie!!!

monster

Just got out of the movie. Robot rented a theater and bought lunch for the whole company.

The movie was pretty awesome!

Jeremy Lindstrom

Yep, just got done seeing it for a working lunch at the movie tavern.. was pretty f'n awesome.

Slum

Just got back. FUCKING AWESOME. I think they just made me a star trek fan.

[Deleted User]

Just saw it too. Awesome. I'd lost interest in Star Trek a long time ago, but this reset is great. I hope the sequels are this good.

I kept thinking of Chekov and Sulu as Charlie Bartlett and Harold Lee though. But that's not entirely a bad thing.

Cojax

Yup very awesome. They stayed true to what trek was but injected it with modern day LENS FLARES!

Seriously felt like I had to shield my eyes for half the movie lol.

Pope Adam

jj abrams needs to do a TNG movie now. they best not replace patrick stewart either!

danr

christ i hate the word awesome

sorry, i haven't seen star trek yet. Just wanted to point that out on the modern public internet.

Jesse Moody

Saw it today with Raven. It was great! My wife even loved it. Can't wait to see the next one.

Kevin Johnstone

Everything's totally awesome to the max... dudes.

Farfarer

Was alright, I guess. The casting was very nicely done. I guess not being a Star Trek fan renders it mediocre in my eyes :P

Also, Simon Pegg is my nominee for "Worst Scottish Accent in a Film 2009".

00Zero

dude, that movie was so awesome. i just saw it.

low odor

Super Freaking AWesometesticles..go see it..or kirk will break his foot off in your Romulan lov'n ass

p.s.
Awesom3

Tumerboy

Scotty: "Ach, There's too many lens flares Captain, She can't take any more!"

Very fucking cool. Casting was spot on imo.

00Zero

didnt that whole ice planet sequence feel a bit too much like star wars undersea gungan scene?

Schultzie

I totally *loved* this movie! Without using the "A" word it was Spocktacular!!!

Tumerboy

I disagree. . . it was Kirktastic!

And yes, as soon as we saw him head for the ice cave, the whole company started giggling as we all thought the exact same thing (Luke stuck in the ceiling).

Also, while that big red squid monster was pretty awe. . . mazing (I didn't say it!), it was funny how little fire it takes to scare it off.

00Zero

probably because its never seen fire before...since it lives on an awesome ice planet and such.

Wells

yeah, the alien chase scene kind of sucked...

and it totally wasn't an ice planet. earth looks like that in places, and we aren't an ice planet. oh snap

overall great movie
