You know, it's never a good idea when you put somebody in charge of a remake project and they were not a fan of the original version. I just don't see how they can bring the passion that is needed when working on a film where the fans are so passionate that to this day, decades after the show's original run they still celebrate it.

I guess the studios have learned nothing from the lessons of 'Dungeons & Dragons' and 'Dungeon Siege: In the name of the King' -- People who are not a fan of the product have no bloody right putting their mits on the project.

My thought is that Paramount figures that the Trek fans are sheep and will see anything with the logo printed on it. It's a bad mistake to underestimate the scifi community just as it is with the comic book community.

I hope the film is going to be great and blow me away but I am not expecting that.
My expectations of the film are a pretty low set bar but my critical analysis of it will be anything but.
