Re: Star Trek Into Darkness
Yeah, saw this today, and io9's take on it is exactly correct.
However, I did enjoy it a lot more than the first one. And I have no idea why...actually, it's probably 'cause of Cumberbatch, and that the story was basically a remake.
ETA: I love Bio's half-hearted attempt to address an earlier poster's concerns. I didn't get through them all, but I liked his meager defense of "line of sight", i.e. the primitives might accidentally see the Enterprise if the ship needed line of sight in the opening scene. I guess Bio's eyes are a lot sharper than the rest of us since he can see the satellite(s) that beam the signals to those of us with satellite tv.
