Saw it last night.
I like the subtlety in the plot points. They didn't spend lots of time
explaining it like I'm 5, but gave me enough clues to piece everything
together.
I'd say it was a lot headier than the the previous 2 movies.
I like that they started from year 3 of the five year mission....meaning
it begins at the end of the original series, so the timeline from the
original series could still have played out roughly the same. Although
presumably they could not have found Kahn out there.
I was a little perplexed during the Sabotage scene.....but I can't
really get into that without spoilers.

Projector was on its last legs, you need to go find another showing.
It was not "generations"ish...

Jay,
Was it dark for you? And I mean literally dark as in can't see the
characters in some of the scenes. I'm wondering if the projector in
this theater was on its last legs or if that was by design.

Did women run up to the stage and flash their breasts? That seems to
have been a thing at Bon Jovi concerts.
Oh, and did I hear Richie Sambora left the band or died or something?

I just went to a Bon Jovi concert about a year ago... one of the best
concerts I have ever been to... he was on stage performing for almost
3 hours straight... pretty amazing.

I guess it’s been awhile since I’ve been to an IMAX theater, the

genuine rock concert experience - he was deaf for about 2 days.
(although it’s tough to tell if a millennial is deaf or just
ignoring you) Your dB meter would probably have been off the scale.
Both my kids are probably deaf because of me, I took my daughter to
a Bon Jovi concert when she was about 10 (her idea, not mine).
Everyone but the two of us were of the age to have been teenagers in
1985, I guess hair bands have a very specific fan base.

I have a dB spl app on my I phone. I see many movies exceeding 90
dBm and that is uncomfortable for me.
85 is a nice comfortable limit. Even with my old ears.
My kids are fine watching a move at 75 or 80.
I broke it out in church last week because I thought the organist
was a bit heavy on the gas pedal. Yep, he was hitting 92 dB.

Star Trek:. Beyond
The first thing I noticed was how ultimately large the IMAX screen
is.
I also thought the speakers are incredibly loud. Maybe even louder
than Chuck mccown's personal home theatre.
The acting was supurb...the audience is very patient and of the
mixed race variety.
The local advertisements and "screen vision" promos prevented parts
of the showing from being overly boring....but just barely.
Stay tuned for further developments / breaking news. Showing starts
in 25 minutes.
Maybe I'll even beat Mccown to the review..
