I wrote a comment on Trekmovie.com tonight asking Bob Orci (Who's been answering fan questions on the site) why, with all the money he got paid and all the resources at his disposal, why he, Abrams, and the rest couldn't do some research and write a kickass story featuring the characters from the "real" Star Trek Universe in a canon setting. I doubt I'll get a response, and I may even get banned from posting there since I accused the writers and Abrams of being lazy, but at least I said my piece. Orci's answers to everyone's questions were sometimes vague and evasive. I don't think Trek is in good hands anymore. I never thought I'd say it, but can we get Berman and Braga back? Trek might not have made tons of money when they were at the helm, but at least they respected canon and didn't have to result to "Alternate Realities" to tell stories. Not unless they'd resolved the issue by the end of the film or the end of the episode.

What's with the obsession for canon? I like what they did with it. The franchise needed a re-boot because what was there wasn't working anymore. They did a re-boot and Star Trek is popular again. What we saw was canon. Just not the canon we saw before. None of the old stuff is going away, but there is new stuff on the horizon and I cannot wait to see where it takes us next

Grrrr. I'll right my thoughts up soon as I was replying to this thread and had a good deal written but accidentally closed Firefox instead of iTunes!
Don't you hate it when that happens!

I wanna watch it one more time. You can't give a review on one watch, so I need to see it again before I do. Don't know when that'll be.

I saw that movie and I really enjoyed it. ;D I am going to see it again. I felt that they honoured the characters.
