That's absolutely horrible. I thought he was great in the Fright Night remake and in Odd Thomas. He was very talented and seemed to be very likeable.

With Star Trek Beyond releasing Friday Paramount today confirmed a 4th Star Trek film is in the works.

Chris Pine and the rest of the cast is expected to return along with Chris Hemsworth (Thor: Ragnarok) who portrayed Captain Kirk's father George Kirk in the Star Trek (2009) reboot.

The early plot "Captain Kirk will cross paths with a man he never had a chance to meet but whose legacy has haunted him since the day he was born: his father."

Just watched..excellent entry in the series 9/10 for me. The only gripe I have is that the action is almost too frenetic at times. But it is due to the specific nature of the enemy in Beyond that causes it, so it is understandable that it gas to be this way. I also noticed in the credits that Simon Pegg is co-writer. He is an amazingly talented person.

One more thing..Anton Y.(Chekov) is going to be missed big time. He has a pretty big role in Beyond. It sucks that Chekov will no longer be part of this universe. JJ saying the will not recast, so in essence Chekov died along with Anton. I presume it will be an off screen death probably, but I guess they could go the reassignment route if they choose. Interesting to see how it plays out.

Went to watch it tonight. There was so much action early that it was hard to follow at times. Loved the way they tied it all together though. Excellent addition to the Star Trek cannon.

Finally caught a matinée today!

Star Trek Beyond - 4/5

This could be the best of the new films, It just felt like a Star Trek film. I could be wrong but I think this film features the first Captain's Log voice overs of the reboot films?

When that scene where Spock opens that picture, I'm not afraid to admit I teared up. I wasn't expecting that. :cray:

Just watched it. Enjoyed it more than the last one. I think they do a great job of characterization in this series and the cinematography was pretty incredible. I actually regret missing it in the theatre for that reason. I appreciated how they worked Nimoy's passing into the story and making it kinda relevant to story. ... oh and that questionable first trailer with the Beastie Boys song makes sooooo much more sense now!

Having said all that, I was left wondering what the motivation of the main villain really was. Plus , I saw the twist a mile away. That knocked it down a tick for me.

Also, I'm saddened that the series has become more of a pure action/adventure driven franchise where as Roddenberry's vision worked in true science fiction concepts and plots. To me that is what differentiated it from Star Wars which is why I grew up loving both franchises for completely different reasons.

I would give it about a 7.5/10. It's definitely worth watching.
