I find it more really Star Trek than all of Voyager and most of the old canon movies. It’s fun, that’s really Star Trek.

I found the first Faux Trek movie absurd and the canon characters unrecognizable--with good reason, because the guy who hatched out that abomination said he never went back to to review the original characters. Hence the disconnect.
Somewhere I read that each age gets the Star Trek it deserves. The original ST was about a meritocracy, with a starship crewed with the best of the best. The Faux Trek movie advanced Kirk-the-Hatching to captain in the kind of wish fulfillment adolescent fantasy I expect from Mercedes Lackey. Faux Trek is the perfect Star Trek for the Entitled to Everything generation.
