It was always Gene Roddenberry's wish that Star Trek moved
forwards, not backwards. That philosophy was only trashed after he died, with bad consequences.
A new movie is such a cool opportunity to go into the future.

It doesn't have to be donkey's years. Even one generation is enough to introduce all kinds of new concepts and species. What is more, the fancy new computer graphics was utterly wasted on Akiraprise, and let's be honest, the level of detail provided by today's digital technology does not lend well to 1960's models. As
our technology moves forwards we should take advantage of it and do some really cool stuff, not waste it on prequel garbage.

Who makes these decisions? I thought it was actually Rick Berman that had a crayon in his head, but the new movie does not involve him. I've figured out that most people today are thick as Walmart's finest yoghurt.

Just look at the amount of so-called professional people who call carbon-dioxide "carbon" and in doing so completley miseducate the public. It's like saying that in order to tackle water pollution, we should be careful what we dump into hydrogen (this analogy really is perfect). Proposterous!!

This is the intellectual state of the world today. Some people really disappoint me. Rant over
