I am still holding onto hope but it doesn't look good.

Also, I started watching Into Darkness last night while doing cardio.
I can't believe how much better the movie is upon a second viewing! I am 1/3 the way through it. The acting and portrayal of emotions is stupendous for a big budget explody film.
That bar scene when Captain Pike tells Kirk that he got Marcus to agree to make Kirk his First Officer. Kirk almost ****ing cries about i! haha But he did his best to hold back the tears. This is good directing and excellent acting. You believed Kirk was about to bawl his eyes out after a shitty day but he, being Kirk, held it back. That's how acting should be done. 🙂
Yeah, if we get the level of acting and directing from Star Wars, a series NOTORIOUS for shitty acting in all 6 films, that would be a MAJOR improvement. If Eps 7-9 give us the acting and directing of the Star Trek reboot BUT give us the mythos and plot of the other 6 films (at least something on par), I believe the ST will be the great trilogy in film history.
