I have wobbled a bit with the latest three films as the credibility factor of being as close to reality as possible took a major slide for dramatic effect - which grated at me immensely.
The most horrendous insult against physics was the one where the battle knackered and damn near written off Enterprise fell in a role to the earth - whilst Kirk and other ran down the rotating corridor - which was visually amazing; but impossible - in that the Enterprise was not deep enough into the Earths gravitional field!!! Complete nonsense. Credibility factor a complete one hundred percent zero. Really irritating.
Otherwise I am very much a Trecky and very much appreciate and respect what Gene Rodenberry attempted to do and actually did. The idea of a society where the majority of people live equally for the common good of all living things - even artificial and crystalline etc too. This sort of thing gets me every time and chucking hefty doses of metaphysics, quatum physics and amazing individuals, gadgets, architectures, space craft, galaxies and all that. Yay!
