- time for young cpt. kirk to boldly s(p)oil another movie?
- directed by the shakespeare-infatuated victor frankenstein?
- they didn't learn from previous mediocre 'franchise resurrection' results with ben affleck?
- another attempt at doing the (insert hero name) 'the beginning' theme, even though it mostly doesn't work as intended?
- just mention the 'clancy' name and consumers arrive in droves?
