Star Trek 3: 10 Reasons Why We Already Know It Will Suck

6. More Spock & Uhura

The most annoying couple in Star Trek continued their relationship in Into Darkness, and they gave us more moments to roll our eyes at. Who didn€™t love the petty bickering as they went on a dangerous mission in Klingon space? Lucky for them that the Nu-Klingons are so inept. Or nonsense like Uhura beaming down to stop Spock from punching Khan to death because she is his girlfriend; totally ignoring that an armed security team would have been a better choice. It doesn€™t make any sense why these two are together and it adds nothing of merit to the movies. The only reason the unlikely paring was dreamt up was because it was a way to make the audience do a double take. And now that Uhura has been sexed up, she had to have a boyfriend because that is what all girls want. Like a Z-list couple that court press attention, these two will continue to hog screen time with their domestic bliss/problems (depending what that moment in the script requires) and will add to the problems that Star Trek 3 will have.
