I quickly read through a discussion over at the IMDB message board
on whether or not the new movie will be the "Phantom Menace" of the
Star Trek franchise. Reading through a few other posts it's clear (at
least from this one source) that many Trek fans are disappointed with
where the franchise has gone in recent years. It seems to be the older
fans, the ones who grew up with the original and who loved TNG, who are
complaining the most about the actual franchise itself. But there are
also many people predicting that the new movie will be a plotless CGI
injected crap fest, and this is certainly a concern of mine as well.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see! If you want to watch the trailer it's available here.
As long as there are lots of cool ship battles in space I will be happy
