Star Trek Into Darkness

Hang on, I need some spoiler space first…

I KNEW IT!  I FUCKING KNEW IT WAS HIM!

So yeah, this was pretty damn great.  The magic vampire blood ending was telegraphed a mile away, but it was all worth it for Spock channelling his inner Shatner and bellowing the name we all knew he had to at some point.  And the rest of the gloriously lens-flared action spectacle stands up just fine with the rest of the series.  Other than the silly reset button ending, there was literally nothing else I did not love about this movie.  JJ Abrams, you magnificent bastard, don’t fuck up Star Wars, although judging by Trek I’m sure you won’t.
