We don't illegally download movies.  We are all upstanding citizens.  I saw it last night.  As a movie is really good.  Great special effects and a good story.  There are a bunch of things in the movie that don't fit right with the series though.  If you can overlook those things it is very very enjoyable.
Never, but never question the engineers judgement.

but wasnt everything changed due to the time travel so the story would not be the same anyway.

As I understand it, the movie was supposed to be an entirely new take on the star trek universe, story and all. Of course I haven't seen it yet, but I embrace the change. I'm not enough of a die hard trekkie to get pissed off at it.

Yes, I had a great time with this movie. Hell, my wife even liked it, and she went in with the attitude that it was going to suck because it's a Star Trek movie (she's of the belief that since she's a Star Wars fan, Star Trek automatically sucks).
Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

I quite enjoyed it myself, despite some of the small nitpicking qualms I had with it.

I liked it. New warp sounds kickass. But I noticed the new Star Trek is very shiny. Lens flares EVERYWHERE! The bridge alone has 5 million anamorphic lens flares.

I'd prolly put it as my 3rd favorite ST movie, only topped by Kahn and First Contact.
