Star Trek honestly was crap IMO anyway, the script was garbage from the Transformers writers, it was "fun" because of the characters.

Abrams basically turned Star Trek into Star Wars, so let him make what he really wanted to work on in the first place -- Star Wars.

But these days things are different than they were in the 80's or even 90's. TNG was killing the movie Series after First contact. There was not much else that could done to save Star Trek besides modernizing it. The last new series just about tanked and was only left on the air because nothing else was doing that great on the station either. A big budget make over is what it needed and what it got. I thought it was pretty good. Spock was on his ass shocked when .....arrived again. Then he got him to stand down, and he took over. Great stuff imo!


I didn't like it. Star Trek should remain Star Trek, don't turn into some brainless action adventure franchise. There's enough of those.

They should make a new Star Trek TV show in the vein of The Next Generation with more modern effects and longer story arcs with high quality writers.

Hear, hear. Soundwave, I agree with everything you wrote. Alas, I think that Trek as we knew it is all but dead. So I don't expect a new TV show anytime soon. If it comes at all, it will probably follow this "alternaverse" mythology.
