Star Trek Vengeance

A necessary edit of one of the weirdest Star Trek films. TM2YC clears up a lot of the oddities in the script, particularly the bizarre conflict between Kirk and Spock. Reducing Khan's fan service elements makes the whole experience move much more smoothly. Unfortunately, I will always have issues with core elements of this film, but TM2YC has done a great job at making this movie significantly more watchable and in line with the tone of the other Kelvin universe films.

This cut is more to the point! Really enjoyed it! Love the added touches! Another great edit from TM2YC!

This is an excellent example of making a disappointing movie better. I never hated "Into Darkness" since it's at least entertaining for the most part. TM2YC's fanedit removes the absolute worst parts and tightens the pacing throughout while retaining the core spirit of the film. It's still a cheesy flick with a horrible villain and contrite writing, but hey no it's no longer sexist and dumbo.

I think this fanedit is wonderful.
I really liked the changes TM2YC introduced and implemented - such as cutting the demotion/promotion subplot, the striptease, Uhura's drama, and many many others.
The plot flows beautifully now, without going off on tangents. Well done!
One thing I wish were possible is a complete removal of lens-flares. I know they're one of JJ Abrams trademarks, but they can be very distracting...
Anyway, long story short - I really love all of TM2YC's fanedits, and wish I was that skilled in fanfixing films.

What an improvement! TM2YC's edit convincingly surpasses the original.

Audio / video editing is seamless. Amazingly, the only time a visual transition pulled me out of the story was more than an hour in when the aspect ratio changed from Imax to wide-screen. Upon rewatching I saw that I'd sat through several aspect ratio changes earlier in the movie. Without realizing it!

Narrative editing is top notch. Plot distractions are removed, strengthening the plot and keeping it clearer. While I love to see Nimoy and lots of Uhura, his removal and her tantrum cut do make the story better. This edit feels less Wrath of Khan reboot and more stand-on-its-own Star Trek adventure.
One narrative transition felt truncated: we lose Carol Marcus' explanation that she can shuttle to an asteroid to open the torpedo outside the ship. Perhaps that line can be inserted over her walking into the shuttle followed by the slow zoom-in to the bridge?

I'm curious to see other edits of this movie. TM2YC certainly sets the bar high.
