So here ya go, why ST09 blew.
I was willing to give it a chance. I really was-- until about midway
through the movie when Spock Prmie melds with brat Kirk and tells the
story of his capture by Nero.
His capture by Nero?!?!
Of all people, Spock Prime knew beyond any doubt that Red Matter could
never ever in any fucking way be allowed to fall into the hands of
anyone who even has a hint of bad intentions.He knew that he could
not allow it to fall into Nero's hands. Nero did not disble his ship
or its command functions in any way, since New, Improved Spock jumps
in and flies it out later.

I can't believe Geordi LaForge would build the Jellyfish with no self
destruct function. At any rate, it had a full array of weapons. Spock
Prime had to know that he had to either go down fighting or self-
destruct to keep the Red Shit out of Nero's clutches. If not, the
writers needed to come up with one gaddamned doozy of an excuse as to
why the hell not, not just Spock Prime kneeling to give Nero the
customary victor's blow job...
