Haven't seen it yet but on thing that is somewhat turning me away is the fact it takes place in the past ..
Not that going to the "beginnings" is a bad idea but because of the fact that the special effects are better now.
The same thing happened to me with Star Wars. I love the original 3 (Episodes 4, 5 and 6) but the 3 newer ones (Episodes 1,2 and 3) although have great storylines and are good movies just don't fit the series for me. I just find it hard to watch a movie that takes place in a time where "technology" was inferior but LOOKS better than it probably should.
I don't know .. I'll prolly go see it this weekend ..
(Ans I have been to one convention .. was a Sci-Fi / Fantasy convention so it was a lot more than Star Trek.
