I'm waiting for the deluxe version of Star Trek Beyond Beyond.
Beyond Star Trek Beyond?
Could be. Hey, they can put the words wherever they want on the album cover so long as they put the score out C&C.

Terrific movie, really fun and emotional - and the score is fantastic as well.
Love it!

Saw it. Loved it. HATED the villain's motivation. (What's WRONG with you people?)
Score: Nice job. But I'll be listening to Thank Your Lucky Stardate over and over and over.
I enjoyed the Classical Music gag. (Even if I hate the music. Lots of people don't.)

I find Giacchino's action material to be just shrill and pretty unmemorable and I'm getting pretty sick of his inevitable and unsubtle use of the choir in film finales to push things fully over the top. I really enjoyed his work on Trek '09, but it's been diminishing returns for me since then. Maybe it's time for a new composer next time?
With you on this one. Shrill is the word.

Saw ST beyond this week and enjoyed it a lot more than I did the first two due to it finally being a standalone adventure. No rehashing of previous TOS material, if anything this felt more like it barrowed from TNG/Voyager lore which I didn't mind. Two things I disliked; the villain and the fact they need to keep referencing the alternate TOS crew; for f*** sake you've finally made a great standalone movie and your cast has proven they can carry the mantle, enough already with the kissing ass of TOS actors. Apparently it only gets them riled up in the press anyway. Move on already!
Aside from that the movie really impressed me with the world building and alien races, so much so it made me overlook some weaker plot elements and Kirk's ongoing daddy issues; enough with that as well please! I want to see Kirk be allowed to be Kirk and not James Bond who has to get M's approval. I liked how on Thundera the crew is split up and Jaylah has to be the best written additional character to Star Trek since Alfre Woodard in FC. I hope she will return in a next installment.
I liked the score in the movie but haven't heard it on its own. I did catch a lot of nods to Goldsmith (particularly TMP) and for the most part enjoyed the action material. I didn't like the previous score but this one I might get if there's a deluxe release.
So... Krall. I knew ahead of seeing it that Idris Elba was under the makeup but even so I found this villain unintimidating and confusing. Ruafu light. Why in these PC times do villains have to be troubled souls whose screen time feels like they are visiting their shrink? What happened to truly mean villains who take delight in their terror, are entertainingly vile and crude? Also, why waste someone like Elba under makeup? This felt like Ron Perlman in Nemesis all over again.
Again, the movie made up for these flaws with a fun adventure and lots of impressive sequences. I like this FnF director, the movie looks amazing and I didn't catch a lot of flare.
So for me easily the best reboot crew movie and I will admit that this premise of throwing the crew into a truly fresh alien adventure is one I've wanted to see for such along time. Enough with the boring Klingon, Romulan, Vulcan disputes; I want to see them truly explore new worlds and alien races and it's here where the movie succeeded most for me.
