A standard Trek trope, and not just TOS.
Why not? After all the last one was a shameless ripoff of Star Trek II. I love space shows generally but the Abrams STs suck.
I miss the old days when the Enterprise kicked butt.
Abrams isn’t directing this movie.
Star Trek: The Search For Its Soul
I want this https://www.youtube.com/user/startrekaxanar to be finished.
It’s amazing they can still get insurance on the Enterprise.
Saw the trailer.
Worst.
Music.
Evah!
Will give this stinker a miss.
didn’t like it ...
boy they destroy the enterprise so often...
Don’t blame Abrams for this one, his name is still attached as producer, but they got the guy who did those inane “Fast & Furious” remakes to direct this.
It does look better than the last bunch, but those were crap.
I recommend a look at:

(Also on YouTube, if the streaming is better.)
It remains pretty faithful to the original series right down to the sets and props.
Oh jeez I just read this:
“Written by Simon Pegg...”
That man wrote one somewhat funny movie, and everything else he’s done since then has fallen flat.
At least the old Star Trek waited until they had a lot of success before they started letting the crew members write scripts and screw it all up!
Can they also take out Benedict Cumberbatch?
Now. Shall we begin?
Faux Trek
Faux Trek: Into Dorkness
Faux Trek: Beyond Crap
What a treat.
I remember when I was in college in the 70’s watching Star Trek reruns, and wishing they’d bring the show back. 40 years later, I think I’ve had enough Star Trek.
