StarOcean said: Only major issue is it suffers from the SW-Prequel tech issue. Where in the Prequels technology looks more advanced XD kt can sorta work in SW, but is weird for ST |
Enterprise has a double episode in an alternate timeline where evil Archer gets his hands on a tos ship from the future. While I apreciate seeing the old ship again, them walking around on the ship in awe at it's amazing future design and tech (analog button panels!) simply doesn't work.
Why the constant need for prequels, there's more galaxy to explore, plus a couple other galaxies to go to...

They actually didn't all do that. They do comment on how a lot of the things look dumb.

Angelus said: Quite interesting seeing the reactions of big time Star Trek fans. I'm only a very casual fan, in that I thought the 3 new movies were varying levels of decent. Never really bothered to go back and watch the old shows and movies. I wasn't aware all the new Star Trek material was so hated by the fans. My mom always told she was a huge Star Trek fan back in the day, and the the biggest punishment she used to get from her parents was not being allowed to watch the new episodes if she'd misbehaved.....anyway, she really enjoyed the new movies they made, so I guess I always just assumed they went over well with fans. Seeing the discussion here I'm suddenly thinking not so much lol Anyway, @OP, I thought that trailer was a good deal better than the first, which had me dismissing the show entirely. This one had me like, ya ok....maybe I'll check out an episode or two when it releases, see if it's worth watching. |
I wouldn't say the new material is hated. It's mostly just not loved; many feel it is too dumbed down and formulaic; all of them are basically the same plot structure.

09 and Beyond are fine with some dumbness here and there. Into Darkness is the one that is full on hated.
