I still have three seasons of TOS hidden in my computer, but I haven't seen it in a long time. Before I went to the cinema, I just thought of Ms. Silver as an old friend. But when Sister U left the disc club with the boss, I cried and realized, no, I've always been fascinated by her. It was like a high fever that had been lurking in my body for so long that I had barely noticed it, but it never went out.
Whether it's JJ or Director Lin seems to have not made ST series as science fiction films. If there were only a 2009 movie with stunning visuals, I would never have developed this near-fanatical love and enduring obsession with the world of Star Trek.
There are quite a few excellent science fiction writers in the screenwriters of TOS and later TNG. They have a super-forward scientific vision, and they have utopian expectations for human nature and society, or Huxley-style fears. The ST series is based on science fiction, but what really makes him the most outstanding and successful science fiction work in American history is the fearlessness and exploration in the age of navigation, as well as equality and peace in universal values. The old captain led his crew to explore deep space. Many times the conflict between him and foreign objects seemed to be a collision of technology, but it was actually a collision of values. Although sometimes their struggles now seem very naive, and once In another struggle, American-style universal values always prevail, but this kind of thinking inspired that generation of Americans. It also cultivated a group of current backbone Bai Zuo (laughs).
And I still love him, because everyone in this universe, including the actors, seriously believes in and abides by their principles, and their words and deeds are one. Xia Dalei is the first white man to kiss a black man in the history of American film and television (but why are you kissing Sister U, Captain, can't you kiss the First Officer, Sister U should have the Chief Engineer come to kiss), and the members of the ST bridge are black and white Yellow aliens (and a Russian, oh my god, in the 70s), there were no politically correct regulations in the United States in 1966. The director arranged such an arrangement, risking the world's chaos, but because he really believed Now many people laugh at equality and freedom.
And the actors probably believed so too. So in the original universe, all members of the Enterprise are closely connected, and they are the reason for the enduring of the entire Star Trek series.
And in JJ's world, there is no god.
The little captain in 2009 was a good boy who smoked, drank and took drugs and 3Ps, while the first mate was a thoroughly arrogant Vulcan. Sister U reluctantly pulled together with the first mate, and the chief engineer was Simon Pegg (I love Simon Pegg, thank the director for choosing him as the chief engineer). Only the doctor is left, and it seems that he is still the southern gentleman in the original universe. The relationship between the little captain and the little first mate was full of fists and blood, struggle and resistance, and the first mate almost strangled the captain on the pilot platform. Some people will explain that JJ blew up Vulcan at the beginning of the restart universe. It is understandable for the first officer to become like this. The reason for the distortion of the little captain's character is his irresponsible mother. It is clearly explained in the movie. You are an original party that will never be satisfied. Of course, although the character of each character in the new universe has been greatly changed compared to the original universe, they are still charming and logical, not to mention that I am a dog with a face, and Ben can't resist Pai's blue eyes. The problem isn't that, it's that Jeffrey Abrams doesn't seem to believe in ST's core values.
In the reviews of the first two films, there are quite a few better and organized answerers than me who have explained why quite a few ST fans are dissatisfied with him, so I will not say more, ST series that have lost their spiritual core can still be used Big productions, big scenes, big ips, all over the world with love and effects and crazy money, but people will get tired of these soon, how long can ST without the skeleton last?
And Justin Lin's new work is actually far inferior to JJ's two works in terms of script logic, and I still can't help but want to give him 4 stars, why? Because I finally saw the original shadow among the new Enterprise members. They're a whole, everyone's integral, and Kirk can hold his own and keep things organized. At some point in the movie, the little captain finally isn't irreplaceable because of his personal heroism, he takes responsibility, he's a starship captain.
After all the storms, he started to look like the Kirk in the original universe.
It was enough to bring tears to my eyes and give it four stars out of love.
I heard rumors that Lin Dale asked Da Lei to film a confession of the old captain to the first mate. It seems that it was originally intended to be used in the relics of the first mate as a nuclear bomb-level tear gas. In the end, he thought it was too sensational and discarded it. , and selected the group photo of everyone in the original universe.
In fact, there are not many people left in the photo. The old bone engineer has become the first mate. Please let us take a look at the captain on the big screen before he leaves.
