I didn't know Interstellar and The Martian flopped! Actually according to Google they both made about 1.5x that of Into Darkness.
But true if we get a decent new series out of it than thanks JJ.

Those were by no means boring though. :^)

Well you seemed to imply hard scifi is boring, but Interstellar is about as hard scifi as it gets while still remaining a good story.  And the top two of Star Trek's original six movies - Wrath of Khan and and The Undiscovered Country - are not boring and have action.

Personally, I don't think the new ones are as shallow as many say, especislly Into Darkness.  I also love how some complain the new ones are too blatant with their thematic parallels with real world events.  And I'm like, hello?  The original films were SUPER BLATANT with that.
