Re: New Star Trek Series (2017)
Speaking as one of the old 50 year guard, I'm hopeful that this nutrek, will end up like nucoke. Nobody who actually liked Coke, liked the new crap. So Coca Cola had to dump a gazillion gallons and go back to the original. Why can't we retcon the real timeline we live in, and just act like Jar Jar never made these movies. Don't get me wrong, I've watched both of the movies he made, and didn't hate them, in and of themselves. I just never think of them as Star Trek. I do the same thing with the SW Prequels and Nu BSG. Not horrible if you just watch them as stand alone films or TV. I do hope that these things die soon, so we can go back to the original spirit of Trek. But alas poor Yorik, with Hollywood stuck in perpetual PC mode, and pandering to every millennial desire, I could be waiting till the here after, LOL. No biggie, they're just movies or TV. There are bright spots out there in entertainment land. And I have my DVD and Blu-ray collections to keep me unbored.
