As far as the trailer to this--it finally looks like they'll be actually DIRTY, as in, dust and filth and dirt--not a pristine clean perfect reality. There looks like there could be some potential going on--but we'll know when better trailers come up. _________________ Meow.
As someone who goes out and sees lots of movies I have to be honest-- I am getting tired of the coporate machine re-hashing old ideas and just beating a dead horse.
Let me give some examples of recent rehashes that were nowhere near as good as their originals:
Off the top of my head
Rambo, Rocky, Die Hard, Terminator, Aliens (Alien VS. Predator), Shrek 3, Batman, Ninja Turtles (they had a computer animated one that was awful), Alvin and the Chipmunks (mediocre), and honestly even though its been a little while now-- Star wars.
And don't get me started on all the horror movies that are really just copying each other.
I get tired of seeing good or at least mediocre stories being milked to death.

Yeah--this really could be just another rehash, but maybe not. We'll just have to see. I'm excited if they're able to get rid of the fluffy happy extra-clean elements that have been in most of the star treks and still retain a good plotline with good acting. _________________ Meow.
Well I definitely like sci-fi if its done right, no doubt of that. Star Wars-- the original series-- is still one of my favorite to watch, and back when they had Star Trek on television I used to watch it. I mostly watched Voyager just because I wasn't old enough to enjoy the others, but I also occasionally watched Deep Space Nine which I thought was pretty sweet.

Deep Space Nine and Voyager were by far the best as they were gritty. They showed the darker sides of human nature and I like that because it shows you just how good the good people were. Without a stark comparison the message gets lost.
