All it would have took to please us is a exploration plot that didn't butcher the canon. They were even considering an exploration plot at one point during it's development but then decided to do yet another summer thrills action movie, and by reviving Kahn no less, when they had previously said in interviews that they wouldn't revive Kahn because it was too risky. Exploration is what Star Trek is about first and foremost, not action. As for a TV series, they'll probably never make a new one that's set in the Prime Universe that follows the formula of the old shows now, we'd end up with some crap that the fans don't even want just like Stargate Universe. |
First, its a reboot. It isnt butchering any canon, its a new story, not a remake.
As for the TV series i dunno, thats why you should lobby for what it is you want on feedback channels. I think that a new series based on the movie universe would be very doable now and maybe give you the exploration sci-fi you want to see.
Look on the bright side though, the next movie has to be about exploration. Though i gather you will be disappointed cause it has to continue to be an action movie, otherwise people dont want to watch it.
