First off, I've been a fan of Star Trek since the original series. I have a poster of the Enterprise-E on one wall above my computer. I have my own Starfleet uniform in my closet, which I wear on Halloween and the occasional Star Trek or SF convention.
A friend of mine gave this movie to me on video as a Christmas gift. And, frankly, the movie scared the hell out of me. All I could think of while watching it is that there are some seriously twisted people out there who are in dire need of professional help. Okay, the dentist who had his office done up like a Star Trek facility was fun. Business is business, after all. But on the other hand we had the woman who showed up for jury duty in a Starfleet uniform.
Yes, Star Trek was, in some of its incarnations, an excellent television series (though I thought Voyager was a total waste of airtime). But that's all it is -- a television show, one of several that I've watched and enjoyed over the years.
Unfortunately, movies such as Trekkies only serve to work against Star Trek and its fans in the long run -- people will watch this film, see how deranged many of its fans are, and conclude that Star Trek fans are a bunch of weirdos. And those of us, like myself, who do not take it to the ridiculous extremes depicted in this film, will nonetheless be lumped into the same category as those who do.
In short, movies like this almost make me ashamed to admit that I am a Star Trek fan, because of how Trek fans are depicted.
On the other hand, the film was well put together, I have to give it that...
