I understand fans were angry that the 00:00:52.900,00:00:55.570 the Klingon's dialog was subtitled, because it allows the Klingon's 00:00:55.770,00:00:57.670 to be understood by people who haven't studied 00:00:57.870,00:00:59.240 the imaginary language for years. 00:00:59.470,00:01:01.440 Yes, but most fans were more upset by the look of the movie. 00:01:01.640,00:01:03.980 Heart-stopping chases, state-of-the-art CGI, 00:01:04.250,00:01:07.320 and alien battle scenes that don't just look like two, out of shape guys, 00:01:07.550,00:01:08.790 in bad make up fighting awkwardly. 00:01:09.020,00:01:10.490 That's a real slap in the face for Trek fans. 00:01:10.820,00:01:12.860 Right, yes. But I think that the bigger issue is that 00:01:13.060,00:01:14.690 fans felt like Star Trek belonged to them, 00:01:15.050,00:01:16.670 and now the studio has turned it into something 00:01:16.900,00:01:17.870 that people will actually like. 00:01:17.960,00:01:20.760 What about the casting of up-and-coming young actor Chris Pine 00:01:20.970,00:01:21.970 as James T.
