However, I have been highly entertained by the re-boot of "Star Trek" with it's early days about the crew. The story-lines are coherent, interesting, good dialog, and well directed so you care about the early days of those characters from the original "Star Trek" characters.
The first one was the best that showed the birth of James T. Kirk; his childhood as when he joy-rided his Dad's car; joining the Federation; and his default assignment as Captain of the Enterprise. JJ Abrams has done an exceptional job making you care about those characters. The second "reboot" was also done well. I love how they inter-place different TV characters into both (Captain Pike) , although not in the right order. They even mention Nurse Chapel in the second one. Much better movies than lame "Star Wars".
However, if Lucas wants to go prequel and show the early start of the Jedi and Empire, along with fleshing out those characters, I may watch it. Doubt I will since 4,5,and 6 were boring to tears.
careful, your bias is showing.
