Also, they really failed (IMO) by not scheduling the original Star Trek film on premium movie channels or FX or Spike or Network within weeks of its release to generate more interest in this film. Hell, Paramount is part of Viacom (which also owns Showtime), so Star Trek should have been raging for a month in advance.
Four years is a long time for a sequel with, for lack of a better term, a "cult" audience.
