    I was about to dl it to grab a look....then I saw the trailer's opening. then i changed my mind
    A brave little theory, and actually quite coherent for a system of five or seven dimensions -- if only we lived in one.

    Well, I'm not going to download it either, but for a different reason - too much pointless "violence", not much of a plot.
    The scene you obviously found offending actually gave me a laugh, because, the way I see it, it is such an obvious exageration, that I can clearly identify it as humorous, not political.

    Looks interesting, the trailer looks indeed a bit full of violence but i'll give it a chance

    So does this film continue the long ongoing debate of which Sci-Fi universe has the most powerful starships?

    And the CG is top notch which is why i watched it in the first place

    Well I really enjoyed it, and it was very well-made. As for the violence, it's cartoon violence, IMO. No worse than watching Tom and Jerry if you ask me.

    This is going to be political. So the truth comes out of what they think of American Culture and a slowly disolving unipolar international relations system (going back to a multipolar system, the historical average).

    This isn't Star Trek, it's more like the Mirror Universe.
