So let me explain these myths to you.
First of all, Star Trek is Star Trek, and Star Wars is Star Wars. It's two completely different stories. Don't expect these two series of movies to be combined like the Avengers or Batman v Superman one day, because they are completely different production companies, so I won't start it here.
Next, let me talk about popular science again, what is Star Trek.
The Star Trek series is mainly about the story of Captain Cook leading his crew to maintain peace in the universe on the Enterprise.
It's that simple. So each of its movies is actually equivalent to Captain Cook leading his crew to settle a thorny event in the universe. Flatten one piece, finish one. Of course, there is a connection between them, but I personally don't think it affects direct viewing.
Just remember my point of view, that is, in each episode, Captain Cook with a sense of justice leads his crew on the Enterprise to settle disputes and maintain peace in the universe.
Then let's listen to Da Cong tell you about the latest Star Trek 3, beyond the stars.
At the beginning of the film, Captain Cook is still on a mission to maintain peace. This mission directly obtains an energy ball that the pros and cons of the entire film must compete for. In short, the energy ball is very important, and everyone wants to get it.
One day after getting the energy ball. They received a distress call from an unknown area at the headquarters, and we called the woman who called for help Unknown.
So Captain Cook, full of justice, led his crew and the unknown woman to an unknown planet to help the unknown woman rescue her comrades.
But when they went to the unknown area, of course things didn't go so smoothly. Before they could land on that planet, they were suddenly attacked by a huge hornet's nest team. This hornet's nest team is the villain of this episode. We mentioned the energy ball earlier. The purpose of this villain attacking them is to capture the energy ball in their hands. So I feel very puzzled, why didn't Captain Cook get the energy ball from the mission before and hide it in the headquarters, but left the energy ball in the Enterprise, so that the villain could have a chance here. After all, the mantra is what the plot needs.
So Mafengwo's team smashed the Enterprise into eight pieces on the basis that the Enterprise was defenseless. As a result, the entire Enterprise crashed, and all the members of the Enterprise relied on lifeboats to escape, and the protagonists were no exception. In the end, they landed on lifeboats in all corners of the planet and temporarily lost contact.
Captain Cook, who landed on the planet, finally realized that the unknown woman who had called for help before was with the villain, and the purpose was to lure them over to steal the energy ball. At this time, an engineer was forced to leave an engineer, that is, an engineer played by Sean Paimon. The engineer met a woman from a local planet. The local planet woman always wanted to use her own efforts to transform a ship and leave the planet. The engineer Just help the local planet girl to transform that ship. And this ship is the old version of the Enterprise several hundred years ago. So the engineers discovered this planet. They had a ship of their own to explore hundreds of years ago, but there was an accident and lost contact, and the ship crashed on this planet.
So the engineer, relying on his own ingenuity and the cooperation of the local planet girl, quickly repaired the ship's teleportation function, and sent the lost analyst Spot and the doctor to the ship. Because of the needs of the plot, Cook The captain also found the ship unknowingly.
Therefore, the protagonists of the film all gathered on the old version of the Enterprise to discuss how to rescue the other crew members who were detained by the villain.
At the same time, the big villain finally got the energy ball through threats and inducements. With the energy ball, there is more endless energy, so that you can directly hit the headquarters.
And when the villain was ready to set off, Cook's rescue team plan began, so a fierce battle to rescue the hostages was staged!
After a Hollywood special effects battle, Captain Cook rescued all the crew through his bravery and wisdom, and teleported all the crew to the old version of the Enterprise. And the big villain doesn't care whether the battle is won or lost. He directly led the hornet's honeycomb team to leave the planet and headed towards the headquarters, ready to destroy the headquarters with energy balls.
And Captain Cook pilots the old version of the Enterprise to thwart the villain's destruction plan.
As a result, the old version of the Enterprise led by Captain Cook and the hornet's nest led by the villain once again launched a desperate battle in the universe.
During the contest, Captain Cook also learned a shocking secret in the old version of the Enterprise. That's the biggest suspense of the whole movie.
Why does the villain hate their headquarters so much, why does he want to do everything possible with that energy ball, why must he destroy the headquarters. Who is the big villain?
That is to say, back hundreds of years ago, when the old version of the Enterprise crashed on a planet in an unknown domain, the crew members, including the captain, were not dead. They had been waiting for the rescue from the headquarters. However, due to the particularity of the unknown domain planet, there was no way to get in touch with the headquarters, and the headquarters thought that all the crew members of the fleet had died, so they did not send any rescue teams to search and rescue. But in the unknown domain, the planet has a special function that can make people live for a hundred years without dying. So the crew survived. After hundreds of years of lonely life, the crew members became confused, and then their hope for rescue from the headquarters turned into hatred for the headquarters. They felt that the headquarters abandoned them and abandoned them, so they became angry and formed a vengeance death team. Thinking of returning to the headquarters one day and returning to the headquarters together. That's right, the boss of the villain is actually the captain of the old version of the Enterprise hundreds of years ago.
Seeing this, I sighed deeply. Hateful people must be pitiful.
Of course, how could this villain succeed? Captain Cook and his crew finally defeated the villain through wit and courage.
The storyline of the movie is almost over. Now speaking of my own opinion, I personally feel that I am actually quite disappointed with this movie. First of all, the director is no longer jj, maybe jj ran out of time to shoot Star Wars. Oh, so what is the connection between Star Trek and Star Wars, that is, the latest Star Wars: The Force Awakens and the previous two Star Trek films were made by director jj.
Speaking of the movie itself, the structure of the plot of this movie is too simple, the villain is stupid, Cook is stupid, and there is not much suspense between winning and losing, it is nothing more than running over, being calculated, counter-calculated, and then we have a duel. The only bright spot is the moment when the truth about the villain is finally thrown out. We do not do vertical comparison, we only do horizontal comparison. The first two films, especially Star Trek, which restarted filming in 2008, have ups and downs in the plot, time travel, and the wonderful interpretation of the older version of SPOT, which are all memorable. And the kind of aura when Khan, the villain of the last Star Trek, appeared, it also makes people feel that the villain is powerful, and Cook may not necessarily be an opponent. But this time the villain feels too simple. But the special effects fight scenes are nothing to say, Hollywood's special effects have always been one of the selling points.
At the same time, I am also a big fan of "Star Trek". I have seen all the TV series and movies of Star Trek. I really recommend that you have time to watch the earlier version of "Star Trek", which is the old wave. Those series of movies starring Star Trek, especially those similar to "The Rock", "Khan's Roar", "Saving the Future", etc. These movies focused on science fiction when special effects did not dominate movies decades ago. In terms of content creation, there are many novel ideas and ideas, as well as the spirit of Captain Cook and his crew, all of which are fully interpreted. Also very admirable. No wonder Sheldon was so obsessed with early versions of Star Trek in The Big Bang Theory. There is a reason.
