re: Who thinks the new Star Wars trilogy will suck?

Jesus Tapdancing Christ, are you fricking dense? Clearly it's not the same Star Trek you grew up with and loved. It is NOT a Star Trek movie in the vein of Wrath of Khan. For frick's sake, I've already told you how to judge it: independently from the other films and the TV show. It is a standalone piece that borrows very little from the original world. fricking get over it.

So, if it does not have anything in common with the known Star Trek product that I already enjoy, I can just choose (should have chosen, anyway) to disregard it? Thanks. That is good advice - good advice that I will be following into the future.

Are all Trekkies as crazycakes as you? This is a serious question.

No, seriously, if I am not supposed to evaluate how the new Star Trek product is treating the characters that I, frankly, care about, then I don't understand why it says, "Star Trek", why it involves characters with these names or the similarities it superficially has with TOS.

Ya'll keep saying "It's different", "It's new", "It's fresh", whatever, but I still don't like it and I think it is not only "not" good, but that it's terrible. Your position is that I'm crazy for thinking so. Whatever.
