The reverse of that post I’ve made a week ago…
Rules: pick one movie or series and explain why you actually enjoyed it despite the criticism.
For me: The JJ Abrams Star Trek movies, by far the best ST stuff ever made, I couldn’t take seriously the original universe with the dated effects and stiff acting, same goes for NG… These movies did ST actually great looking and much more believable, not just the effects.
Fun fact:
Will Smith was the first actor approached by the Wachowskis to be Neo in the Matrix.
He turned it down to work on Wild Wild West, and the role of Neo went to Keanu.
