I loved that people who watched Alias called the big ball “Clifford the big red ball”, or “Clifford the big red McGuffin.” I almost yelled Clifford! in the theater. JJ Abrams should do a show Called The McGuffins, it would be awesome.

It seems I am the onlyt person on the whole internet who didn’t like the movie.
I have two reasons to think the movie sucked:
a) The music was really not fitting (not that of a great reason I know, but wait for b))
b) There was only one scene in that whole movie that made sense, and that scene was the bar brawl.

I am not kidding. That bar scene was the only scene that made sense. I challenge you to find another scene in that whole movie that made any sense.

I love this guy’s Belly. I couldn’t tell you why.

Let’s all remember one more thing about Scott’s comic specifically: if you consider the word “nerd” an insult, you definitely aren’t playing with the same deck of cards that everyone else on this site is. He named his fan appreciation event Nerdtacular, folks… which means he’s a nerd too. That’s part of why I love this site and all the accompanying media that goes with it: by nerds, for nerds!

I agree with Dourgrim. It was a fun and engaging movie, just enjoy it for goodness sake!

@geljamin: not a complete explanation, but it was stated that Spock’s ship was a science research vessel, which would at least partly account for the red matter.

I’m kinda astounded at how difficult some people make life for themselves. Did ANYONE really go into this movie with the expectation of perfect, logical, methodical writing and plot development? If you did, can you honestly say that that’s the sort of writing you’ve always gotten from Star Trek franchises?

The movie was fun, engaging, and most importantly accessible by non-geeks. That’s a HUGE blessing for people like me who are geeks but are dating/married to/about to marry/related to non-geeks.
