Star Trek Into Darkness
This was a very satisfying movie in a lot of ways. I found myself thinking that it was too different from classic Star Trek, then I thought it was way too similar. In the end, I thought it was really good. When you've got characters as cool as Khan, Kirk, and Spock, you just love seeing the old material recycled because it's just so awesome. So Khan died in Star Trek II? No big deal, let's reboot and do a new adventure with the same characters. I can't believe how long it took me to recognize Dr. Marcus as the Dr. Marcus from Star Trek II, silly me. And it had a perfect ending: Khan, back on ice with all of his followers, waiting so be awoken at some future time...
