They should revamp the ship, uniforms, tricorders, everything to be more inline with the 21st century. I love the classic and would love to see a fresh take on it. That way, it can be sort of one of those "hey, we screwed up and we're bit enough to admit it, so we're cutting our losses and starting over" things. Then, if the movie does well, they should do a TV series with that cast based on that movie, as if the movie was the pilot.

Yes... Trek, as is, was good for its time, when it was created. However, back then Mr Roddenberry couldnt have forseen the extent of the changes in our world. And since the new series (TNG, DS9, VOY) had to work of the history established in the first, those diferences caused it to become less and less realistic for us. If the new writers sit back, look at series that have pulled it off right (Firefly, Battlestar), they could create something great.

...then again it could end up a pile of monky crap!
