Sic transit Gloria mundi. Or at least the Star Trek world. That's what happens when you turn over a generation old thoughtful science fiction icon to a talentless Gumby like JJ Abrams.
I won't be seeing this one. Ever! I had enough of Abrams in the first reboot.
For Christ sakes, it looked like Scotty was chief engineer in a brewery, not a starship.*
And the bridge DOES look like an Apple Store.
*the interiors of the Enterprise were indeed filmed at a Budweiser brewery in CA. Not too disguised, either. Hence the disgusting and prominent Budweiser product placement in the bar scene. Yet another reason to despise JJ Abrams and the production team who dealt that abortion. And the little guy with Scotty was JJ Abrams' version of Jar-Jar Binks.
