- Опубликовано: 21 июл 2016
- Star Trek Beyond is out today! Star Trek Into Darkness has been dismissed by most star trek fans for "borrowing" some key elements from previous films. Critics were generally kind, so it's the purists who are wrong this time. Here's everything right with Star Trek Into Darkness. Next week fuzzy wins.

"I've no idea what I'm supposed to do. I only know what I CAN do." Pretty much sums up Kirk in any timeline.
The edit when Khan kills Marcus is just superb filmmaking. Some people would complain that a scene like that needs blood and gore and an R-rating, but Abrams just knocked it out of the park with that cracking sound, Alice Eve's piercing scream and Pine's look of absolute horror. It didn't need the blood and gore - the horror of the situation was conveyed with simple good cutting, sound editing and acting.
Not gonna lie, I didn't really understand what had happened when I first saw it. In the beginning, I thought he'd simply snapped his neck really hard. Then I thought he might have ripped his head from his body like a Mortal Kombat finisher. I actually had to look at the way his shoulders moved his arms inwards to realize that he'd fucking compressed his skull into his brain like a regular person crushes a soda can.
Considering how Augments have roughly 5 times the strength of a regular human, even a lazy Augment could utterly destroy the world's best strongmen. Furthermore, 235 kg, 520 lbs, or 2,300 newtons of force is required to crush the strongest parts of the human skull. Regular humans, even at their peak, can only generate roughly half of that. Take someone who is 5 times stronger, and factor that in? You get a teenager who can turn your skull into paste, let alone a fully grown adult.
Yeah I’d say it’s arguably more horrifying only hearing it given what image your brain makes
You're so right. Why does it escape some people. Maybe they have to see gore.
I agree. Some movies will show EVERYTHING and it would be less effective. Saw became less scary, and more off-putting.
Depicting how exactly Marcus died leaves little room for imagination. However, given just the soundbite and the horrified reactions of others leaves us to our own devices as to how bad it was.
Okay when Kirk "died" my heart was already cracking, but when Spock cried I completely lost it and cried so hard!
Me too, and I know You and I are not alone.
You should watch the original.
keda kronos Not gunna lie, I did too 🥲
Same
same..even KNOWING it was coming..maybe that made it worse
Add a win for Sulu threatening KHAN.
It's great foreshadowing for what could later be, given that Sulu becomes a capable captain and CO in the original films.
KHAAAN!
That scene was so fantastic. With that statement, he showed that he wasn’t someone to mess with. 👍👍👏👏‼️
"Remind me never to piss you off."
RIP Anton Yelchin
RIP Anton Yelchin .
F
R.I.P God bless his soul.
That part near the end when Kirk "died" really got me. I cried. And honestly I was thinking about it for hours after the film finished. And Spock's reaction was so touching.
I know what you feel. Even though I know what's going to happen next in the movie, that scene still gets me everytime.
It's so sad and perfect and I get so teary eyed.
I love the reboot films. My only complaint is that they have not made more of them.
There’s a new one in the works and Chris Pine was surprised when he was put on the job again!
My complaint is all of the lens flare.
Agree. I think it's really interesting seeing this world diverge more and more from the prime timeline. For instance, it'll be interesting to see whether we ever get an equivalent to the Khitomer Accords in this universe.
4 is shelved, not canceled…
@@Oriaksbut that’s the best part!
I personally loved this film. Thank you so much for defending it.
me too
Yes, 👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🖖
My favourite of the three
"Benedict Cumerbatch is an awesome villain"
Hence, my icon.
Brits make the best movie villains!
Benedict Cumerbatch is awesome, period dude, have you seen Sherlock?
And a cool magic tony stark
Radculas Benedict Cumberbatch is amazing whatever he does
To me, his portrayal of Kahn is epic, so spine chillingly malevolent to anyone who is not one of his crew.
I'd like to say that this movie changed something massive for me. Before I saw it, I couldn't care less about sci-fi. No Star Trek, no Star Wars, no Asimov, no Mass Effect nothing. I saw this one (before 2009 Star Trek even) kind of by accident, and it just blew me away. The beauty of the CGI, the characters, the scope of the story and mainly the concept, this wild possibility of the future, all of it.
I'm a complete convert now. I'm watching the Star Trek TV shows (luckily all on Netflix, winning) and I'm a huge Star Wars fan these days as well. My favourite recent book series I've read was sci-fi "In Remembrance of Earth's Past" by Cixin Liu, I highly recommend it. I've developed an academic side interest in astrophysics. All over the last three years, thanks to this movie. So whatever flack it might get, for me, it showcased what Star Trek was always supposed to be ... about wonder and possibilities and adventure.
I'd like to add that I really love your CinemaWins channel. I get so tired of all the complaining online about great movies ... sure, sometimes it's all-in-good-fun teasing, which I do enjoy, and that's fine. But all the hating? Sometimes I wonder if anyone even enjoys these movies anymore. Why not sit back and have fun and revel in all the awesomeness? Anyway, that rant's over, just thanks for making these. They're awesome and like a breath of fresh air. :-)
Hélène Uriot you have found dah weii mah brudda
Widmark
Yeah, it gets very boring and tiresome listening to people complain about something that they claim to love so dearly over and over again. I'm unfamiliar with Star Trek, but I see this kind of hate with many other franchises; Marvel, Star Wars....it's all really horrible ranting. At some point, you have to question why people are even watching these movies at all if they're just going to complain about them instead of having fun like they're supposed to.
Widmark how exactly does one see a film by accident
Kyle Campbell Basically that’s what happens when you turn the TV on and the movie is just starting and you just decide to sit through it and see what happens.
How does someone not like sci-fi? O3o
My dad is one of the biggest Trekkers I have ever meet and he gave Star Trek 2009 a 13/10. I forget what he gave Into Darkness but it was still as high. So he loved both films. Me personally I feel they are great films. I cry at George Kirk's death and love seeing Nero get his butt handed to him at the end of 2009 every time. This movie was my first introduction to Mr. Cumberbatch and he really made a great Khan and I really couldn't see anyone else fill the shoes of Ricardo Montalban (may he rest in peace) but Cumberbatch did and did so with the flare I was hoping for any Star Trek villain to have. As for the Kirk death scene I cry like a baby every single time because of the emotional depth that scene has.
Joseph Franklin 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🖖
Three years late to this but one of the most awesome moments from this movie that got left out (missed?) was when Sulu threatened Khan with the torpedoes in the first place. That shit deserved a win.
I love that model space ship panning shot!
I know he denied it himself, but its Khans role that makes me think that Benedict would have made an excellent Thrawn.
That urges to agression (,,You should have let me sleep") and his complete poker face while explaining some things (,,My name is Khan" whole scene and ,,If you think you are safe in warp...") gives me chills every time and makes me realize I can't unsee it.
To those who don't know in nutshell:
Benedict said he wouldn't want to be blue.
JJ Abrams said that he decided not to use a minority or dark skin actor because he did not want to reinforce the stereotype that exists today...that anyone that looks Middle Eastern is a terrorist. Yes, Khan is a terrorist. Abrams understands that the power and influence that the media has. I was indifferent about who plays Khan, but Abrams' reason for his decision is understandable.
Chuong Do I personally find that reason to be bull crap because no one should look at a villain and say that person of some race can't be portrayed as the villain. Anyone can be anything regardless of their race. If the actor can nail the role, that should be praised.
The problem is context. We don't live in a world where anyone can be anything regardless of their race yet. How many brown protagonists have you seen in the media lately? Now tally that next to brown villains. Not saying that Abrams was right in whitewashing Khan, just challenging the idea that we live in some post-racial society where those kinds of considerations don't matter.
Alexandra Tangalos The thing few people seem to realize is that he didn't actually whitewash anything -- Ricardo Montalbon was Mexican-born, but he was a white son of Spanish immigrant parents and played the role of Khan in brownface makeup (in the TV show; in the movie he had more of a spray-tan). He wasn't as paper-white as Cumberbatch, but he was still a white guy.
Giga Ronin Thing is these days people have gone back to the race issue, 50 years after we left it. Its a complete joke. Can we just move on and NOT generalise on colour, country, culture or belief. Seems not with SJWs and close minded right wingers around...
Plus from an in-universe standpoint it makes sense. As explained in a comic Khan got plastic surgery since he needed to make sure nobody would recognize a famous tyrant
"Khan could give The Mountain a run for his money."
Thanks for making me remember that. RIP, Oberyn.
Cinema Wins should do a collaboration with Cinema Sins so they can debate and have the two sides of the story in the same video.
I don't know... that sounds like something that could unravel the space-time continuum . 8-)
It needs to happen
Have you seen eww cinema sins,or any other critique on cinema sins.Having a debate with someone who edits films to make up a flaw isn’t worth debating.
Yes
cinemadebates
This channel is like a beacon of light in midst of the darkness that is known as "CinemaSins" and "ScreenJunkies" where they follow the mainstream and hate on new things.
Cinemasins doesn't hate on new things. They point out the flaws in movies. They've done older movies, but they usually do newer ones. If you watch their Everything Wrong With Cinemasins video, you'll see their actual opinion on things.
Daniel Skrivan And then they point out the things they don't like and add the "sin"
TripleTrees
Again, watch Everything Wrong with Cinemasins. They acknowledge that some of their sins are just for humor or personal opinion. They also point out a lot of plot holes and actual errors that exist (such as period accuracy, geographical errors, and math failures). My favorites are "so-and-so is not my girlfriend in this scene."
Daniel Skrivan And that is what i hate about it. Their audience thinks that them pointing out a "flaw" in a movie is a real criticism.
TripleTrees
You would rather people just enjoy the movie than pick it apart?
Can we all admit how brilliant Karl Urban as McCoy was?
Benedict absolutely OWNED the character of Kahn. Were there other actors who could have been a better fit? Sure. Alan Rickman comes to mind had he not passed so untimely, or even Anthony Hopkins... even though he's older. But being as how the rest of the Kelvin timeline crew is far younger than they were in the original timeline TWOK, it's not at all a stretch to portray Kahn as younger as well. Benedict Cumberbatch did a GREAT job and brought to life his own interpretation of Kahn in a way that pays homage to the original.
I am a long time Trek fan, from the Original Series, and a complete fanatic of The Next Generation. That being said, I to this day CANNOT understand the animosity many Trek "fans" have against the 2009 reboot, and this wonderful movie! I LOVED it and watch it any chance I get! As the narrator stated a few times, the musical score is absolutely classic, and helped make the movie even that much better! Into Darkness was fantastic, fun, sad, action packed, and just plain GREAT!!!!
They fucked up the science to have more spectacle. Yeah the spectacle is great but that isn't what Star Trek has ever been about.
-.-
Trek was dying away before these films, the 2009 reboot was like a defibrillator for the franchise. Plus it's these films that got me into TOS and I love it. Yes it's different but that show never got too deep into explaining the science behind anything. The characters are interpreted wonderfully and the new films tell fun stories that keep you entertained and emotionally invested. I'd recommend you watch the mr plinkett review of trek 2009
+Azusa Saphire Oh fuck you dude, like Stuart Fucking Bard knew what Trek was about? He couldn't even remember the character's names in his own damn movie! He was the director of Nemesis FYI.
That's Exactly how I feel! =D
Okay, I love CinemaSins, but your breakdowns at the end make these even better! Now I've only seen ur Star Trek ones, so maybe it's only on these, but it made me look even deeper at these movies. Great job.
I like the breakdown but the fact that he keeps "winning" his own opinions is nothing short of hilariously absurd.
+Jason Thornton (Darthmalius) isn't the whole thing his opinion?
no he gives wins to moments in the actual film. he is winning the movie till the end then he just wins himself, theres a word for that isnt there?
He's winning things from the movie that he sees as wins, that's opinion. He's not winning himself at the end either, he's just making remarks about things, and winning those things. As in a summary of wins he couldn't quite fit into the video.
For example, the emotions and such that were seen throughout the film, he ended up winning at the end. Since he could only do that at the end.
+Jason Thornton (Darthmalius) Is that different from sinning your opinions?
At 3:03 pay attention to how Bones grabs Kirk. Saw on Tumblr someone talking about how it's a specific medical technique thingy. It allows easy control of a patient's movements, which is needed in that scene. Medical accuracy!
He kinda missed a TOS Call Back, when Kirk and crew are about to go down to Kronos, Kirk says ready the ship from the Mudd incident or something like that.
Totally agree with this. Never understood the hate this film gets
While have issues with it, Insurrection or The Final Frontier were worse.
I don't care what the purists say, I love this movie.
Was never a fan of Star Trek cause I never watched the old show and movies mostly cause they never appealed to me. I was actually tricked into seeing this movie, and I wasn't excited since it was a Star Trek movie. But to this day seeing this movie was one of my favorite movies I've watched in the theater in a long time. And since I never watched any of the Star Trek movies until now, I had an unbiased view of it. Haters are just biased fanboys
Here's something I learned. "Purists" are not the true fans they claim to be. Real fans are open minded to...the undiscovered country.
@@armalarm Couldn't have put that better! I'm a born Trekkie... who started watching every series of Star Trek from age 6. For 20 years I've watched and rewatched them... and I LOVE these new films! Are they perfect? No. But they do their job.
"People can be very frightened of change..."
"You will often fear what you don't understand and hate whichever is easier to, rather than accept and love."
It's not about purity. Nemesis is a terrible film. Final Frontier sucks. Generations is awful. But the three reboot/Kelvin films are garbage. They look like shit (seriously, what's with the lens flares?) the plots suck, the jokes don't work (and are too frequent to take the movie seriously) and the plots make no sense.
Any other actor than Cumberbatch would have made me hate this movie. He is awesome.
mdmyer ha and he did bargain
Kirk, I've come to bargain.
The movie was ok then he says "i can save her" an the movie become a 10
His portrayal is bone chillingly affective.
Hated how they whitewashed the Khan character.
Idc what anyone says this movie was phenomenal. Every actor blew me away and Benedict as Khan left me speechless I really wish he had came back for the sequel.
This is great. I personally loved this movie and the character arcs involved in it.
Haters can go to hell, this is still Star Trek and it's still good, it just can never compete to the magical notion of what star trek "Is" that fans have in their heads.
(Usually consisting of ideals and standards of the t.v. series that the films don't have time to explore)
What no-one remembers was the "Is he-isn't he" khan thing was a massive deal in the run up to the film but in reality it managed to disguise the true villain of the flim, Marcus, so it did a pretty damn fine job
Also: No points for the entering warp scenes in this film? The one at the start after they leave the underwater hiding is pretty epic, it's like they threw all the warp effects from previous films and series into a blender and merged them together.
Pretty stunning special effects imo.
Agreed, that was something I cut for time. The stretch from TNG and the light trail from TOS. Loved it.
Ha, well glad to hear that anyway.
Not sure if it'll survive to Beyond but it was amazing in 3d as well
Thanks for the reply!
+CinemaWins you should do a video on zootopia.
+cdname47 saw beyond. Second best star trek movie out of the 13
+Connor Machin yeah but does it have the into warp scenes of into darkness haha
I love that Marcus was robocop. Cumberbatch was an amazing villain- this is the type of villains we need.
5 extra points for a brief Nolan North cameo.
Also, seriously Star Trek fans, THIS is what you voted as the worst Star Trek film in the franchise? Give me a break....
Ben Wasserman I always thought the worst film was Finale Frontier I as a fan liked this movie but hated FF that by far was the worst
Wait-people thought this was worse than Final Frontier?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
*cough* Insurrection *cough*
As one of the original ‘Star Trek’ fans from 1966, for me this movie is great! As it’s set in an alternate universe, things are suppose to be different. If I was ranking the ‘Stars Trek’ movies, this would be near the top.
@@slcRN1971 and besides this movie never really ripped off the wrath of Khan. The wrath of Khan was a pure blooded revenge story. This was a section 31 conspiracy. Something that is never really looked at that much in the franchise and something that Discovery never did enough justice to.
I remember seeing this in theaters with mostly older couples who probably grew up with or knew Star Trek TOS. I had already guessed the reveal before I saw this (you can’t have ST2 and Khan NOT be in it somehow). When he delivered that line everyone in the theatre gasped. It was so amazing. Easily my favorite Kelvin timeline movie to date. It’ll be hard to beat.
You need to add a win for Sulu's "Test me and YOU will fail." Badass good guy.
thanks for your commentary! I'm simply thrilled to see our heroes Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and the best crew in all of Starfleet on the big screen again! LLAP
Another great review of a great film. I agree, Quinto does an excellent Spock, Pine is an excellent Kirk too - I love it when he does his Shatner impersonation from time to time!
Old video, I know. However, you did miss something a lot of Trek fans forget. In Trek Roddenberry wanted humanity from an idealized society, what we could be. As a result, many of TOS episodes were varied in theme and concept and completely up to the viewer for interpretation. Trek is about perception and interpretation and not an ironclad timeline. That's why so many books were approved, whether they fit the timeline or not. The remake of Star Trek would have been thrilling to Roddenberry as he suggested a reimaging of it as far back as the initial proposal for Star Trek Phase Two.
"Real" Trek has always been subject to interpretation and I happen to like the movies. Grudgingly, at first, but still. I really enjoyed them. Trek is supposed to be entertaining, but more importantly, it's supposed to inspire thought and hope. These movies do just that.
Seriously, Zachary Quinto is one of my favourite Actors, he's absolutely amazing and his performance in Star Trek is truly wonderful
6:41 - According to the tie-in-comic, Khan did the same thing to the man who augmented him for being a mad scientist.
7:03 - 7:16
"Teamwork!"
"More teamwork!"
"Even more team- oh wait."
fantastic video man! I always love to see thoughts from people who love and appreciate films as much as I do instead of nit picking every little error, continuity mistake, plot hole etc. You've 100% earned a sub from me.
This movie is fucking amazing and I adored Benedict Cumberbatch as Khan. He was so good. The emotions were on point and they sure as hell earned this
Honestly one of my faavourite films of recent years. The music HOH just chills every time. The acting- benedict is always great but the way he delivers his lines in this is just so toe curlingly satisfying and plain GOOD
i agree that people get hung up on comparisons, rather than viewing the film as though new to the genre, and judging it for its own merits. I personally got dewy eyed at the Kirk Death scene, it worked on me more than the original death scene, Zachary's delivery was brilliant, that transition from pain to pure rage, awesome. Also Bendedict nailed Khan, making it is own rather than copying the original actor's performance, so that they can stand on their own merits. So i was surprised and dissapointed that it got flak from die hard fans, time to move on people, this is a new timeline after all.
Seriously, the music in these movies is friggin phenomenal.
I love this film. I love you CinemaWins. When I really like a film, you make them even better and even if I don't like them, every now and then, you persuade me in their favour. Thank you. You are awesome.
Thank you for your appreciation of the film score! LLAP🖖🏽
I love these videos, man! I just have this huge grin on my face the whole time, and it gives such a great new appreciation of these films! Keep up the good work!
So, you've convinced me to give this one another watch. I was bothered by some of it, and I initially found so much of it frustrating, but I'm willing to revisit it and possibly change my opinion. As a longtime Star Trek fan, I was perplexed by my fellow fans' dislike of 2009's 'Star Trek.' But I jumped on board with their distaste of this film.
Your video has me reassessing my previously held opinions.
If the name Star Trek is at the theatre i will go and watch it.
This is pretty much my thought. I can nitpick all I want, but I will likely always go see the movies in theater because there will be something there I will like.
Star Trek Beyond deserved the name Star Trek way more than Star Trek Into Darkness or... Star Trek. (It really needs a subtitle)
You will not be disappointed. Flaws may be noticeable, but I can stilll say i loved it, I bet you will too :P
StarTrek IX
same
"Khan would give the Mountain a run for his money" LOVE IT :D
Hey man, I think it's great that you've started a channel like this. It's good to see something positive for a change! Keep up the good work!
Jedi Reach : it is great to see positive reviews and comments‼️.
Benedict Cumberbatch makes for a great Khan Singh in this timeline
just saw Beyond!! was really good especially the third act!
Don't spoil it, but what was good about it?
+TheNoFlinchGrinch all I'm gonna say is Krall's motivation
***** Ok, and how is he compared to Khan (Into Darkness)?
personally I think Khan had a better personality/ on screen presence but Krall's story is more emotional
***** ok thanks
The new Star Trek movies is what got me into Star Trek in the first place, and it was seeing this movie in theaters with my then-boyfriend that got me interested in them. Mostly because I didn't really know Star Trek even existed for a long time because my mom wasn't a huge sci-fi person and I didn't know much about the original show until I was like 16. I feel like these movies get wayyyy more shit than they deserve, not being "real Star Trek" and all, but as you said in the last video, the new movie reboots have opened up Star Trek for an entire new generation of fans.
They go completely off fr the over-arcing theme of Star Trek. They made a franchise with deeper themes and lessons a vapid action blockbuster,and I personally think that they deserve every bit of criticism they get.
cool story bro, still enjoy the new movies
+xsilvermistx By themselves,they are OK action movies ,that I'd enjoy as some brainless fun,but they aren't Star Trek.
No, I'm pretty sure they're still Star Trek movies :)
+xsilvermistx Yes,they may be called "Star Trek" but on a spiritual level,they aren't the same.
They deserve a win for the Juggernaut facing Enterprise with the Pillars of god in the backdrop scene
LEGEND
That ending cracked me. Those Wachootoo were hilarious.
I didn't know B. Cumberbatch before Into Darkness. I thought he did an excellent job with the Khan character. Made him even more menacing.
I can't wait for the prime universe version of TNG, with James McAvory as Picard
Congrats if you get that joke
Captain Cynical HA! I get it!
Me too! Love the latest one.
Pat stew played piccard and professor x and mcavoy played professor x
He would actually be good. Cast Christian Bale as Commander Ryker, Paul Bettany as Data, and Lance Riddick as Warf.
I’d actually like to see that. That’d be awesome. Make it so, Number One.
Personally I never really watched star trek growing up. It seemed too slow for me. But with this franchise, I love it! Cumberbatch is my Kahn. Also please do a video on here comes the boom
My issue with Khan in this movie was that the original Khan was always smiling and so polite and courteous only for him to have brief moments where you see how he really is, while Benedict Khan just seems angry all the time. So while yeah they cast a white dude to be an Indian character originally played my a Mexican actor so the new doesn't look like the old, I also really feel that the new doesn't act or feel like the old either.
Thank you! I think the video said it well with "if he played anyone but Khan...". And the thing is, the plot would have worked just as well. But this - taking a character that is Indian, as indicated by the name, and letting him be played by a white dude for that one moment of "OMG HE IS KHAN!!!" was not worth it. John Harrison was a good villain in his own right, he did not need to be Khan.
Am I the only one who thinks Chris pine did an amazing, yet understated and clean shatner-esque Kirk? The perfect level of homage and adding his own flavor, just as I think we see in Spock? (Also I wish Zachary was my BF). I'm not alone there, right?
Jack Warren : no you are certainly not alone, Chris Pine is fantastic as Kirk! Actually, I like his Kirk better and I watched the original back starting in 1966 as a teen. That Zachary and Lenard became good friends after they met to discuss the role of Spock, wow do I envy Zachary and I will always miss Lenard (had his ‘Star Trek’ poster in my room).
First of all, I love the voice over from the counter guy! Second I've been a trekkie since I was 11, so long term and I had my issues with reboot at first, but then I saw into darkness and I love it! Also Benedict is always a win
Just want to say I love your channel. With so much grumpiness and complaining on RUclips; it's a breath of fresh air to have some fun. Thanks.
The track at 1:36 "London Calling" is one that I ALWAYS make sure to keep on my phone. I just love it so much.
I really loved this movie, and never understood the hate... but, then I grew up on TNG and never saw The Wrath of Khan. Cumberbatch's reveal was pretty astounding to me...!
5pid3rman80 : I did grow up with ‘Star Trek’ (watched it as a teen in 1966), and I so much agree with you. I decidedly believe that Benedict Cumberbatch’s portrayal of Khan is mesmerizing and bone chilling. He also is fantastic as ‘Sherlock Holmes’!
I love this channel way more than screen junkies
but Screen Junkies doesn't do sins videos.
11:34 That's what I thought too. They were trying to stick with the allegory aspect of Roddenberry's _Trek_, this time focusing on the post-9/11 governmental reactions and militarization. That's another reason why they included the scene of the _Vengeance_ ship crashing into San Francisco.
This movie was the one that got me into TOS and cemented Bones as one of my favorite characters of all time.
I love that your constructive criticism. Mainly because the stereotype that all critics are complete assholes. But yout show is so good, I wish more people would be like you.
Also, I'm quite looking forward to make a video about Warcraft. Critics immidietly went full: "Its a video game movie, therefore its bad". If assassin's creed gonna end up criticly succesful because: "oh fassbender is so good" I might kill a lot of critics. I mean he is an amazing actor, but assassins creed games don't really shine storywise as much as Warcraft.
That film should have made more money in America. I hope with these ticket sales will be able to make Warcraft 2, than a Lord of the Clans, than the best part of the Warcraft story: Warcraft 3, and the Frozen Throne.
world of warcraft was a complete success in china or so i hear so yes there will definitely be a second, third fourth, i mean there is so much lore to cover
Yeah, I know that most of the money it made wad from china(about 60% if I know correctly)
Fyi: Its Warcraft, not WORLD of Warcraft :P Sorry, but it's Warcraft for a reason. And i'm also sorry if this comment comes off as rude as I am not meaning it to be.
WoW movie was one of the best I'd ever seen.
Never in my life have I ever been in so much pain.

"Why is my coffee so bitter? Did you not use a FILTER? DO YOU THINK THIS IS A GAME, SON? YOU DON'T KNOW THE HALF OF IT!"
For me personally, Cumberbatch is ALLWAYS a win. Plus i love Reboot-Star Trek. Could never be bothered to care for everyting that came before, but i enjoy the reboot.
It was a brill movie, all three were. Such a shame we lost Anton - it broke my heart, he was such a talent.
Benny also makes a badass Doc. Strange
Also it was in the Fleet's charter
this is still my #1 movie of 2013
and yes I understand the fans backlash of it being a remake of Wrath of Khan but remember it's a new timeline
I really appreciate what you do on both your channels, and your love of film is there to see and hear. If this is your day job, you're lucky. If it isn't, you're still lucky.
I love these movies, all three. 👍
This is my favourite Star Trek film and I'm so happy to see a review that shines a light on all the things I love about it!
Thank you so much 😊 x
CinemaWins: "Love the sound design of the Vengence. Blood-curdling"
me: Whole Heartly Agree *shivers* best part for me is, when you listen to the sounds you can notice that since the Enterprise is an Armed Exploration Vessel it has a more Friendly sound... High Sounding Whistle and a calm humming sound but still having the Strong feels that tells us, we are Peaceful but we can and will fight back, but when the Vengence closes in, Overshadowing the Enterprises sound itself, its basically a Predator Staking its Prey, a Rich, Deadly Buzz Sound and heavy low but Deady Hum, a Battle Dreadnought Showing there is no Escape, no Fighting... your at the Mercy of the ship that will not stop until its Target is Destroyed... Slowly... Plate by Plate... dame i think got deep XD
I love this movie. When it comes to the Kelvin timeline movies, I like the two first better than the third. The best thing for me in into Darkness was, without a doubt, Cumberbatch as Khan. Epic. :)
these vids always cheer me up. thanks and keep up the great work!
Dude,your videos help me to see the good stuff where usually I wouldn't.
Do Batman v Superman and X-men: Apocalypse soon,because I REALLY need to see the good stuff in those.
...
😞
+Pryoth My win is actually a part that people hated. It was the scene where Batman is in the future trying to stop Superman. I just like the look and feel if it.
I would have rather had that movie and then Batman fighting Superman makes more sense. You can have Flash come back and change everything and Superman can go back to being normal. Maybe even smile a bit lol. That way you can explain a unhinged and paranoid Batman,because he is in this crazy future where Superman has lost it.
Also a small win for me was Supes' death scene. That music just really got me in the feels.
Wonder Woman was a definite win in bvs
Pryoth Yeah the dream sequence/premonition/WTF lol
I love that scene.
I enjoyed Apocalypse quite a bit. First class and Days of Future Past set the bar so high, therefore I'm not too surprised Apocalypse fell short. They tried to cram too much into one movie. I'm usually against the money grab of "part 1 and part 2" final stories of major franchises, but apocalypse could have easily been 2 parts, and possibly a better, more coherent story.
All that said, I fell asleep during BvS. Once in the theatre, and again this week when I rented it from directv solely to see what I missed when I fell asleep in the theatre. That movie has some serious pacing issues. At least Affleck was a strong batman and gal Gadot seems to be ready to carry wonderwoman. Wins for both of them...???
+Roy Latham I thought Lex Luthor was the best part of the movie. Eviscerate me internet.
Khan's piano theme omg it's gorgeous
I'm a fan of 'the other' channel, just found this, and love it for your positive spin and neck deep references! Nicely done, sir!
Because of you and because of this channel, I now know what a dolly zoom is and how/why they can be be used properly (at 14:13), where the Enterprise jumps to warp past the Vengeance. The scene always had that disorienting feel of space bending with the power of the jump, and to me subconsciously solidifies the power of the Vengeance in that 'here's how strong the Enterprise is, now watch the Vengeance catch up like a parent running after a toddler' way.
Thank you for bringing your love, passion, and education of movies to the internet. It only makes said properties better.
the auto ding when Giacchino's name popped up in the credits :D Yeah!
6:39 It's easy to pull a CinemaSins comment here by asking, "Where's the blood on Khan's hands when he calls Spock?", but I'm going to rephrase that and say "It's nice to know that "Khan" was courteous enough to wash his hands before video-chatting Spock."
I wish CinemaSins would actually focus on movie errors like that a bit more, lately it seems to be running jokes (e.g. clíches, which are most often forgivable) or simply agreeing with internet criticism. It's rare to see genuine problems with the films on the channel, which makes it hard to take seriously.
I happen to love the scene when Spock is on the pad to get Khan and he switches his phasers to kill right before he beams down.
Love the PO'd Spock going fisticuffs with "super soldier" Kahn. It really drives home the whole reason Vulcans so value controlling emotion.
Even though I'm not particularly a fan of this movie I really appreciate your positive attitude about everything. Keep up the good work!
This was such a good movie
I just started watching this channel and I love it! I never saw any of the other Star Trek shows/movies but I absolutely love these three new films! Keep up the great vids! 😀
I love the way you give all the actors kudos! I was surprised to find some actors I didn't realize were in the film! Love your positive outlook. It's refreshing! Thank you, and the actors should thank you, too!
This is a top 5 favorite movie for me and I am not even a Star Trek fan, the film at its core from rising action to falling action to climax to the intro is absolutely brilliant. Cinematically this movie was close to perfection
Your mention of Bashir and section 31 made me wonder what would happen in the future of this new timeline
Would the dominion wars even happen?
Would the borg become an even more dangerous threat?
Would it even affect Archer (there is a LOT if time travel in star trek - enterprise) and start ANOTHER alternative timeline
I hope this gets mentioned in a future star trek film/show
Wow. This was my first video of yours that I have seen. 1) well done! You obviously put a lot of effort into your videos. 2) your ability to analyze the movie was spot on and extremely well thought out. Thanks for the great video!
It's been a while but I'll rewatch both this and the first movie purely to watch spock flip out after Kirk dies. That and my strange love of scenes where a character dies then comes back to life.
The same thing happens in lilo and stitch 2 and I love it. I swear that movie is underrated. Love how it shows that you can fail to notice someone close to you is suffering when you're too wrapped up in your own problems. "I kept saying how I needed you, but you needed me more"
Cumberbatch doesn't just chew the scenery. He has it with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. ;-)
5:40 Kirk’s scratch on his cheek bone looks like the Star Trek simbol
Very smart observation.
Bless you! Love your stuf. Just have to say, I loved this movie and for many of the reasons you hit upon in your commentary. Thank you for being generous to humanity and it's many variants. Thank you for this
I can feel all my anger and frustrations washing away as I watch your videos. It's very calming somehow xD
