Home sick and just watched Star Trek: Beyond. I thought it was a lot of fun, even if it’s less old-Trek cerebral and more action-movie.
But.
The “Sabotage” thing was 100% B.S. Whomever added that should get kicked.
And, man, Abrams loves having big starships near the ground, doesn’t he.
You guys know the background behind that, right?

So I’m curious why you disliked it?
I really really loved that bit. Like a lot. Especially when Yorktown switched on their signal.
Robert Bohl I found it cornball and pandering. It’s the song Hollywood uses when they are out of ideas, IMO.
Hm, I still don’t get it but it’s been a while since I watched it. My ladyfriend’s been wanting to rewatch it, so maybe I could suggest that and look at it with your comment in mind. Thanks.
The awkward thing about Sabotage at this point is that it’s a character arc callback

Scott Martin Merciful Zeus but I hated that bit.
