The reverse of that post I’ve made a week ago…
Rules: pick one movie or series and explain why you actually enjoyed it despite the criticism.
For me: The JJ Abrams Star Trek movies, by far the best ST stuff ever made, I couldn’t take seriously the original universe with the dated effects and stiff acting, same goes for NG… These movies did ST actually great looking and much more believable, not just the effects.
Having read the books I feel like the 84 version was great for the first half and then they said “ah fuck we’re out of time” and just cobbled together the second half
It went through serious development hell and producer interference.
However there’s a fan edit with salvaged editing room floor footage. “Sand diver’s edit” or something. It’s amazing.
Hey thanks I’ll have to check that out!
Thanks for that. I’ll look for it.
