I don't really want to be converted and I know many TOS fans really enjoy it (although I simply cannot understand it in context of, particularly TOS and DS9), but I wanted to throw this out and see if any TOS fans agree with me.


When you say TOS, I assume you mean pre-Abrams basically. I'm not a huge fan of TOS itself, but the subsequent series and all the movies I loved for the most part.

I take it for what it is -- a ST popcorn flick. I don't like it as much as the pre-Abrams stuff. But, I don't mind popcorn flicks. I'm not huge on the new universe, but I do look forward to the new one coming out soon and hope that it sparks a new series one day that comes back to the universe done before Abrams.

I completely understand this position.

That's the epiphany I came to in this process - "Maybe they can fix it?" which leads to, "Hey, they f*cked this up and they're not going to fix it", followed by , "Hey, they f*cked it up, deny they f*cked it up and they say I'M f*cked for not liking it", and finally, "F*ck them."

I guess the hate grew just like that.
