Stupid Trek

MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD

Star Trek Into Darkness is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. It was flat out insulting my intelligence as I was watching it. If I was not in the middle of the theater, I would have walked out.

Which is a shame because parts of it are pretty good. The music and visuals are great, the cast are excellent, particularly the chemistry between Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto, and there are some really funny moments. But it's all dragged down by the stupid fucking script.

So here's a list of all the stupid shit that pissed me off.

Hands of the Mandarin (Spoilers Ahead)

MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR IRON MAN 3. GO SEE IT, THEN COME BACK

So I saw Iron Man 3 today. Overall, it was pretty excellent. Better than Iron Man 2, first is still the best but just by a little. And it had a really strong script thanks to writer/director Shane Black. But if you've heard the buzz from overseas, you know there's a huge twist in the second act that radically changes the mythos. A lot of comic fans are fuming over it, but I'm okay with it.

Last chance to avoid spoilers,
