Today's 18-25 year olds have the attention span of a fruit fly ...

My first thought after watching that, imho, horrible ST Beyond trailer. This is not my ST. Hopefully that rumoured tv series will be more thought provoking, and less ADD driven.

The ADDness of blockbuster movies is a lot due to the fact that they are geared towards international audiences. Sadly, the old Star Trek movies with the original cast would never be made today. And they never did well internationally.

Foreign audiences just saw old people talking all the time. But they didn't grow up watching the show, and didn't care about the characters. We saw them as old friends.
