All My Movies: Star Trek (2009)

[@bubblisimo]

Gotta say Dan, I have really enjoyed the "All My Movies" series. I really look forward to each video and your channel has quickly become one of my favorites. You do a fantastic job. Please keep it up!

[@carveraugustus3840]

Same. Couldn’t have said it better myself

[@noahmellemstrand4756]

Amen to that!

[@aprilperrault9438]

I echo this 100%

[@catherinemccarthy5765]

Agree

[@MattPool]

Completely agree!

[@foxmouth9380]

Anton's passing will never fail to make me sad. What a heartbreaking loss. Great video, Dan!

[@FlagCutie]

Same. Such a tragedy.

[@closeben]

“…Abrams had intentions of actually taking this franchise where it hadn’t gone before.” *Khan enters the chat*

[@GortonIma]

To be honest mate, I had been wondering how you'd been able to get one of these out every week for the past few months. It's clear how much work goes into them! I love the show and hope you can find a way to continue it which isn't so demanding on your time, even if that means less frequent episodes.

[@spiritchannels]

That new Hemsworth guy certainly went out with a whimper, never to be seen again.

[@qwertyferix]

Oh yeah! I forgot about that guy... Isn't he the brother of Luke and Liam Hemsworth? 🤔

[@mycupofcoffee6373]

09 was good Into the Darkness was bad Beyond was almost great... (love Beyond)

[@qwertyferix]

This is a great film, and I really enjoy J.J.'s take, even if some hard-core Trekkers say it isn't the "real Star Trek." But we all know the best Star Trek movie is _Galaxy Quest._

[@ChuckD008]

Dan needs to do a month devoted to Karl Urban. Dude clearly has a love for genre-film/tv

[@boxkid759]

I don't understand the hate with Beyond. It's great

[@closeben]

I’m very glad they started the film with the Hemsworth action scene. It’s one of my favourite openings to a film and was the reason I was gripped into watching.

[@Weaponator18]

Love the show and excited to see what a new version looks like. Personally, I think this show is the best thing you do on this channel. I'm a huge fan of the current video format with the behind the scenes clips and news reels. Totally understandable that it's a bear to do every week; especially on top of everything else. So if the new version of this show stays within a video format, but just less frequently, I'd 1,000% take that tradeoff.

[@christianlynch1424]

Love this podcast, curious what a re-tooled version might look like. Personally, I've always favored your "deep dive/box office/blu-ray features" parts of the show over any guest appearances.

[@Itsmrluis]

Been loving All My Movies. Hope it continues in video form. Even if it goes down to 1 movie a month or bi weekly to make it easy on yourself. Regardless I’ll keep supporting.

[@FlagCutie]

Regarding your announcement, I think a lot of us would be perfectly satisfied with getting fewer of these episodes as long as they are done well. So research those fun facts and do those deep dives! Twice or once monthly is good.

[@stealintomorrow]

Love the show, and love when you show "behind the scenes" and news clips you've found. Hope it stays as a video medium for that reason, and if that means we get the show less frequently I'm happy to make that trade-off. Regardless of the format though, I look forward to watching/listening in the future!

[@edsbigsister]

I had never seen anything from Star Trek before this film came out. I liked the film so much I went and watched all of the original series as well as the movies and have recently watched The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine for the first time. Now I need to watch Voyager. This show/movie is so stellar. I hope they can make more Star Trek movies soon.

[@Daniel145D]

Anton Yelchin had incredible potential. His performances in “Like Crazy” and “Green Room” were both so good

[@hindsightpov4218]

38:03 I still have mixed feelings about the entire planet Vulcan was completely destroyed, making Vulcans an endangered species. I get it that it was a game changer, but I still feel iffy about it.

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

The shout out for Thirteen Days was nice. It's one of my favourite films and one I watch fairly regularly. The outcome is guaranteed, the story is known and it's never less than fully engaging. Everyone should check this thing out. It's brilliant.

[@RainaEmms]

Bruce Greenwood is always a win. Thirteen Days is a great drama and I loved him in Nowhere Man (wish it had caught on)

[@orinjayce]

They talk about canon, then give Vulcan a moon. Not to mention J.J movies not understanding how big space is.

[@tomlewis4205]

I think the average human would have difficulty understanding how big space, even the Universe is! 😎 Of course he screwed up again with Star Wars - a galaxy somehow smaller than our solar system. 😉

[@josephfisher426]

@@tomlewis4205 Regarding the size of space, it is frustrating that SW doesn't use the real stars as the setting like most science fiction has (at least what I am familiar with) and like ST often has.

[@davebo9615]

Or making Chekhov the same age as Kirk. Or making Sulu and Uhura older than Kirk. Or that Starfleet cadets don't jump straight to Captain out of the academy.

[@truppelito]

I couldn't agree more, my favorite part of this show is also hearing everything you have to say, all the trivia you found out and seeing your love of each movie. The guests have always been secondary for me. This is one of the very few series on youtube I remember to look for every week and that I will always watch.

[@maxwellharris1434]

Eric Bana is a lot funnier than I expected “…J. J. Abrams will die…” 😂

[@OdileOdile19]

He was a comedian

[@EveryoneWhoUsesThisTV]

Also known as Poida.. :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gl66XqmwerF1qpo

[@avalentova]

There is so much wrong with this movie if you want to call it Star Trek. Is it entertaining? Yes, I have no problems rewatching it, but it went downhill from here and it saddens me where Trek is now.

[@AWSVids]

20:55 I expected you to say, “This isn’t gonna be Star Trek at all, this is just gonna be Lost... in space.”

[@binaldoshi495]

Anyone else feel like they loved it when they first watched it but can't for the life of them remember anything from it? Or maybe that's just me and my issues with JJ Abrams.

[@TheBeird]

So if Beastie Boys exist in the Abrams Universe, would the characters freak out if they listened to Intergalactic? "Like a pinch on the neck from Mr Spock?" In fact, a lot of Beastie Boys references Star Trek doesn't it? Their discography would be an existential nightmare for the crew of the Enterprise!

[@Carlos-gu9fl]

Please keep doing these video type shows. Absolutely great show!

[@Noztube]

I loved Bruce Greenwood in the little known television series Nowhere Man.

[@TIG5574]

LOL me too! I use to watch that and Star Trek Voyager back to back on the ONE season it was on anyway.

[@closeben]

*Dan talks about Anton Yelchin* okay now I’m crying

[@professorm4171]

Ahhh, there's the problem. You can't appeal Star Trek to everybody. When I first saw this movie, I thought it was ok but I knew it wasn't Star Trek.

[@Str4vv]

Just a solid movie, always liked it a lot being a TNG fan mostly. The "FIRE EVERYTHING" moment always gets me hyped. Eric Banas over the top yell followed by the Enterprise showing up. Just great.

[@imacmccormick]

This is a GREAT series Dan. Really enjoying it. I would love to see an episode on Speed Racer 2008... If you love that movie. 🤗

[@coreybarnett7221]

Star Trek into darkness next!!

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

Alex Kurtzman would then go on to ruin Star Trek on the small screen without anyone with actual talent there to cover his mediocrity.

[@Ari_G73]

Wow.. I actually loved Star Trek Into Darkness. I guess I have bad taste. :)

[@jacobdawes6405]

My favorite show on KZbin! I really hope you can keep doing the video version 🤞

[@brunobb1]

I used to absolutely ADORE this movie when I was younger. It was one of the earliest sci fi piece of media I ever consumed and I still love it.

[@Phantomwaxx]

Dan, don’t stop the series, please!! All My Movies is one of the most intelligent and thoughtful shows around. You have more stories to tell and I want to hear them. Cheers!

[@DanMurrellMovies]

The series won't be stopping - I just have to pause and figure out how I can keep making it. Could be batches of episodes, could be every other week. I love making the show and I will definitely keep doing it!

[@marcozuleta133]

I wouldn't have never belive that the day would come when I say that the star trek trilogy is ten times better than the star wars trilogy.

[@one1blue]

Love the show Dan. I hope future episodes will be on KZbin as that’s where I consume all of your content. Keep it up brother.

[@closeben]

I’m really really sad that Star Trek Beyond flopped, because it was such a great film imo, my favourite Trek film (I’ve only seen the Kirk films), but the marketing for the movie was AWFUL. I don’t know how they screwed that up.

[@brentage5000]

Same. It would have been really interesting having Jaylah as a permanent Chekov replacement for the fourth film if they'd done that (I always had the thought that they were building towards that, considering how Beyond ended)

[@nativenerd5759]

I was never a fan of Star Trek before the 2009 reboot but I loved the action and characters of J.J.’s version and don’t mind the 2 sequels. Matter of fact before the reboot my favorite Star Trek related thing was Futurama’s Where No Fan Has Gone Before.

[@Pocketkid2]

My main complaint with the J.J.Abrams Star Trek movies is the shaky cam. It makes it hard to see and appreciate the detail levels and camera work on display in the film. It also gives me a headache on big screens.

[@asiaa_monet]

I came into this movie in 2009 knowing nothing about Star Trek and walked out wanting to binge all of it. And while I wouldn't call myself nearly close to being a Trekkie, this is one of my favorite movies. It's one that I watch at least once a year. This deep dive made me love it that much more. This was really great Dan. You really went where no man has gone before. I'm excited to see more in the future!

[@isaiahwells9937]

I feel as though JJ Abrams is kind of like a mix between Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg

[@Bad_Wolf_Media]

I'm sorry, Dan...but ST:III has Christopher Lloyd wrestling with a giant rubber worm. It has some really great moments. Shatner as Kirk looking up as his ship burns through the atmosphere and delivering the line "My God, Bones, what have I done," is truly art. But overall? Just a weak entry.

[@the7percentsolution]

I don't think that the Next Gen movies weren't suitable for the big screen. Generations was fine and First Contact was GREAT. Insurrection dropped the ball with a mediocre story that could have just been a two part episode on the series. That movie should have dealt with the Dominion War or at least something adjacent to that. And then Nemesis, while it had some interesting stuff, was directed by a guy who didn't know what he was doing so the movie fell flat. Had those last two movies been handled better I feel like we would have continued to get at least one or two more TNG movies. I'll never believe that Star Trek suffered from fatigue. It just had a series of misteps that unfortunately led to it's demise.

[@_Boobear_]

Its a fun watch but the one thing none of the new movies got right was that the enterprise was as much a character as the crew

[@loudoesreviews]

Decent movie that is very well cast. Karl Urban really rocked as McCoy. Decent until the Spock watching Vulcan blow up from another planet scene. Seriously? Plus the film bears JJ Abrams most egregious signature - no not lens flare - but - the 'cool without context' shot. He frames scenes that may look cool but make no sense without the context of the universe the story takes place. In this film we get the Enterprise being built on earth. In the next one we get the Enterprise under water. These shots may look neat but they make no frigging contextual sense. And the - cool without context - Abrams shots can be found in every one of his films - especially in the Stars Wars films.

[@thomasevans4851]

Continue doing all my movies! I've recently discovered your channel and my favorites from you are Charts and all my movies! I'd love to see some contuation of it in some form or fashion!

[@Patrick-jj5nh]

Great video Dan, the love comes through. Really hope one day you ll do a Voyager TV show review...

[@pollutance]

Hell I couldn’t stand Star Trek, I was in fact a die hard Star Wars fan and this film roped me straight in.

[@may.k_me]

Oh damn, that bit where Leonard Nimoy gave a speech on his wrap day... I teared up

[@tammygant4216]

PS: Whatever form you come up with Dan, I'm there for it! All the best.

[@Michael-xp7gw]

Love All My Movies. Hope you can make it work going forward.

[@cosborne06]

This movie has great rewatchability and is good background noise

[@andromidius]

I really disliked this movie the first time I saw it. Its since grown on me a little. The second movie was better for me, though still not as great as I was hoping. The third movie is actually really good, despite me thinking it looked terrible based on the trailer for it. Here's hoping the next one will be good. The re-imagining has promise, it just needs a bit of love and care.

[@sigler00]

One of my personal favorites all my movies entries, well done Dan!!

[@Maulbert]

The best thing about Star Trek V was the Jerry Goldsmith score. It was genuinely his best work in the series, and possibly his best score ever. Yes, seriously.

[@christianlynch1424]

Star Trek Beyond is my favorite of the new trilogy but Star Trek (2009) is definitely quality. Into Darkness is better left unmentioned...

[@ProuvaireJean]

I really like the first two acts of Into Darkness. It's in the third act where the movie falls of a cliff. The first act addressed some of the criticisms of the first movie (that Kirk was too green to be given command of the Enterprise) and did a good job of building tension and mystery. And in the second act I was genuinely excited by the prospect that the story was going to take Khan into a radically new direction - allying himself with Kirk in order to take out a common, greater, enemy. Also, Cumberbatch is a class actor who elevated the material. But then in the final act the movie turned into a cringey, embarrassing, poor-man's retread of Wrath of Khan. I'm convinced that if they had avoided that, fans would have a much better opinion of it. Worth noting, that the general public likes Into Darkness just fine (going by reviews and audience scores), it's mostly hardcore fans that tend to dislike it. (Not me though - I'm a hardcore fan who does like it, while not being blind to its substantial flaws.)

[@jesseowenvillamor6348]

Into Darkness is the best of the trilogy

[@michaelglatt100]

I think the 2009 Star Trek is pretty good for what it is. Not my favorite, but a decent take on the franchise aimed at a more casual audience. The films that followed as well as the new shows headed up by Kurtzman who got his start in Trek with this film though are not so good.

[@KatSonny]

"Also, KZbin's copyright system is broken!" ... Yup! 😂

[@gillchieu]

Does anyone else have the special Target edition with the discs in the Enterprise saucer section? 😁

[@D21BeastReviews]

I bought it for my brother’s birthday back in the day. He still keeps it displayed in his living room.

[@ThousanWhite]

One of the few 10/10 movies for me

[@JLandmaster]

Always look forward to more "All My Movies"! Whatever form it may take.

[@randombrokeperson]

Funnily enough I watched this earlier today 🤣 I prefer the sequel with Benedict Cumberbatch. He acted his ass off and made the most of that role! 🌜 7082021-1025 🌛

[@MichaelWutsch]

There's about 1 movie a year that I start watching and can't get past more than an hour. This was one of them, I thought it was terrible.

[@tomhahnl1927]

Was solid reboot, loved it!

[@Jasonjones-h2x]

You need to rewatch the directors edition 2024 blue ray of TMP its awesome... And soooo much better than its original cut..

[@JayD-goYanks]

I was always a Star Trek (TOS) fan, but then TNG started and I became a huge fan of them. Loved their movies, including Insurrection (one of my favorites). Then 2009 and Into Darkness are also my favorites.

[@hindsightpov4218]

As an avid Trekkie, I’m always eager to hear whatever fellow Trekkie Dan Murrell has to say about Star Trek.🖖

[@gailseatonhumbert]

I like the Uhura/Spock relationship and I saw Star Trek on TV first run back in the dark ages. What bothers me though is not using the actual reason a doctor is called "bones" from sawbones a nickname from when doctors did a lot of amputations during wars. I also understand the back story of why Nimoy did the exposition cameo in the next movie. It wasn't the original plan but Shatner was being difficult about just doing a small part so they improvised by talking Nimoy into the brief appearance to introduce Kahn.

[@dylanrowell176]

Why did the beginning make me say “WE’RE GETTING READY TO TALK ABOUT “star trek” YOURE LISTENING TO A REACTION PODCAST. The spoilers are a coming

[@brentage5000]

My top three star trek films are Generations, 2009, and First Contact. I'd make it a top five, but I've only seen every film since Undiscovered Country (6, G, FC, I, N, '09, ID, B) and didn't like enough of them to make a legitimate top five.

[@may.k_me]

I personally don't like Zachary Quinto's acting as Spock. And I didn't like Uhura and Spock as a couple (because it didn't feel like the actors had chemistry, to me) But I think the rest of the actors did a good job playing their characters. Chris Pine is quite honestly the perfect fit to be Captain Kirk, IMO He has that kind of all-American vibe along with the charm and swagger that William Shatner had as Kirk.

[@jeffthompson9622]

Faran Tahir, who played the captain killed by Nero in the beginning, was memorable in the MCU as Tony Stark's captor who was secretly in business with Obadiah Stane in Iron Man.

[@Daniel145D]

Not being a huge Star Trek fan, I had a lot of fun with this movie. But if I was a hardcore fan, I would probably have been upset with JJ’s approach..

[@Daniel145D]

Also, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Karl Urban NOT be great. Ever.

[@phoenixboyz]

i never watch original ST series before, and I do not understand what ST TNG talking about probably i was too young to understand, this is my first ST film, I like SW, but this ST film really makes me want to watch more of this ST timeline. and i have watched many times it never gets bored, the scene where THOR saved 800 lives in USS Kevin scene is always the best part, including the orchestra score

[@R5d4d2]

Horrible movie. Remember when JJ ruined Star Trek before he destroyed Star Wars? Directly responsible for the abominations STD and Picard.

[@CMontgomeryBurns09]

I really like this movie, but that whole argument about "fate" as a valid hand-wave excuse for lazy screenwriting (see also "the will of the Force" in the Star Wars prequels) around 43:00 was just weak.

[@danalmont8340]

Great 👍!!!

[@joshuasingleton9373]

You wouldn't blow the warp core in 40k 😂 Love these all my movies!! Would like some all my actors too, or all my movies lord of the rings 😍

[@moisesparejarangel1987]

You should something (Review or another video of this section) about the TV Series FRINGE.

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

I still don't like the origin of "Bones". We already knew that a doctor was a "sawbones" which was funny in that time period because they used technology. It was already a good name.

[@halmyrach]

I really enjoy the show on KZbin, long formats such as those may not be the most profitable time invested vs views, but if you find a way by slowing the release schedule it would be great. One episode per month if it allows you have more time for yourself and others content you want to do, and still going deep into a movie you want to share with the audience maybe? Anyway thanks for all the effort and passion you put into those videos. I love that it's a mix of review and learning about the movie discussed, your arguments even if we may not always agree are always well formed and it's easy to understand where they come from and respect them. It's really rare those days to have a measured take on something and being open to discussion :)

[@althaz]

This is one of the best podcasts out there for movie fans. I'm not sure which episode is the best or which one's the worst, but I know for sure that every single one is amazing or better. If you want feedback on what to do in this show, I would honestly say please change nothing. It's actually perfect right now.

[@nikunjdixit1175]

I think this movie and this series as a whole is not given enough credit. Star Trek is honestly alive right now because of these movies. The Star Trek Brand was dying off, literally and figuratively. I am not a hard core trekkie so I honestly don't care that if its more action heavy than Star Trek used to be or if there are aspects that are different. But certainly Trekkies how a debt to this series if they like any of the new shows because there is a good chance that Star Trek wouldn't even be in the cultural zeitgeist if these films hadn't been made.

[@StephenRansom47]

…this film has become so much more important than itself. This is Movie Multiverse. Two Spocks before multiple Lokis. Hell even THOR is Kirk’s father… 🤦

[@jaycollins2036]

Probably the best modern blockbuster, hope abrams can bring us another classic like this. easy 9/10, made me a star trek fan.

[@Welcometotheclipshow]

Can we talk about Neros motivation? His plan was to destroy the planet that could create the red matter needed to save his planet? Really all he needed to do was tell them to hurry up

[@christophercomtois7175]

Honestly I really like this show but I would be absolutely fine if it was only once a month.

[@kingmanic]

The writers attributing coincidence to fate is even worse than coincidence. It's hokey After hearing Abrams like the idea and regret cutting it, it diminishes any respect I had for him.

[@abigfavor]

Star Trek Beyond is better than 2009. People overlooking it is a crime

[@vincentjetton4157]

Love what you do Dan! 🐐

[@don8009]

Excellent stuff and now the cricket bat is perfect. Live long and prosper.

[@davebo9615]

I really enjoy the different guests. I think they can provide fun perspectives and or stories of what each movie means to them.

[@tammygant4216]

58:58 . . . a good reminder for all creatives. Sometimes you don't know until you just do it!!

[@ldisc66]

Who knew Abrams would make a fun Star Trek movie being a Star Wars guy but his Star Wars films were... not great, NOT BAD but not great. Also I feel Karl Urban captured his character the best. I'm not sure any other actor could have captured the feel and spirit of Bones any better. Such an underrated actor. Then there's Zoe Saldana as Uhura, simply outstanding. Glad the writers enhanced Uhura's take no crap personality for the film.

[@MarcoBayod_MB]

OMG! this is the first time that I saw Abrams hitting the camera's body for that "wiggle" effect
