Totally a movie to watch in theaters, disappointed that I didn't. Having never seen a Star Trek ever, I missed out on a lot. You could tell the points that were designed to make Star Trek fans jizz, and I was just like "oh thats cool... so he's like, a guy from the show or something I guess".
Well, according to the wikis, that Captain Christopher Pike was a reference to the original Captain in the unaired pilot, who they scratched while rewriting it after filming and went for Kirk instead. So they threw this character in to make those trivia people happy.
Speaking of, at my showing, they did a trivia thing for free shit before the movie. One question was "name all 11 movies in order" and one guy immediately stands up and belts out all 11 movies in order, including which ones had a number attached to their titles, in a single breath without even slowing down a bit. It was... scary. That and that dumbass that kept yelling KHAAAAANNNNN every single god damn question that was asked.
