Not to mention the tendency for this team to make cute references to the old show, as if they think, "Just saying 'Gorn' or 'Tribble' will satisfy the hardcore nerds."

It wasn't as bad as Final Frontier or Insurrection, but it's by far the most uncreative pile of dogshit ever to be found in a Star Trek movie.

Will I watch the new series? I'll check it out. But honestly, I'm more excited for something like Star Trek: Axanar than I am this series.
No. They blatantly ripped of Wrath of Khan, but did it poorly and insulted ST fans everywhere. Into Darkness is an abomination; Wrath of Khan is the best ST movie ever made.
