There's been a lot of discussion lately about the new Star Trek Into Darkness movie but no one expected that Roberto Orci, the writer himself, would ever join one. In a post on TrekMovie entitled "Star Trek is broken - here are ideas on how to fix it", Orci started commenting along under the username "boborci" whose identity was later confirmed by the TrekMovie moderator as we read on DigitalSpy.
He wrote:
I think the article above is akin to a child acting out against his parents. Makes it tough for some to listen, but since I am a loving parent, I read these comments without anger or resentment, no matter how misguided.Additionally to the sequel criticism, fans also started pointing out that Star Trek Into Darkness was chosen as the worst movie in the long-running franchise at a convention, and Orci replied:
Having said that, two biggest Star Treks in a row with best reviews is hardly a description of “broken.” And frankly, your tone and attitude make it hard for me to listen to what might otherwise be decent notions to pursue in the future. Sorry, Joseph. As I love to say, there is a reason why I get to write the movies, and you don’t.
STID has infinitely more social commentary than Raiders in every Universe, and I say that with Harrison Ford being a friend. You lose credibility big time when you don’t honestly engage with the F***ING WRITER OF THE MOVIE ASKING YOU AN HONEST QUESTION. You prove the cliche of s**tty fans. And rude in the process. So, as Simon Pegg would say: F**K OFF!Whoa! A little too much maybe? But it's not to be jumped at, he later on apologized for overreacting on Twitter, let's just say fans really burst his bubble.
