[QUOTE]Originally posted by bX: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [qb] Easier, probably. Still, I think it would alienate some fans of the current continuity, and I count myself among them. I just wouldn't find it as interesting, since a big part of what I like about Trek is its status as a complex, integrated, and largely cohesive fictional universe. [/qb][/QUOTE]However, in this I suspect you are a tiny fraction of their target demographic. A reboot would give them a shot at a new audience (who won't feel like they've been left out of the loop) as well as viewers who may have wandered (not to mention to tap writers unwilling or unprepared to dig through the vast vagaries of canon for consistency's sake.) Mark's right though, on the JMS monologues delivered in Shatner-style. That might get... Well they'd lose whatever new audience they were hoping to wrangle. I hear you on the lazy and lame thing, and I definitely think there's ample room for more Star Trek without having to recycle characters. It's just, well [i]Nemesis[/i] flopped and the numbers for [i]Enterprise[/i] really didn't warrant the expense. They're hurting and I'm sure Paramount is looking to make a safe bet. TOS is smack in the middle of nearly everyones comfort zone. (This gossip of M. Damon as Kirk for JJ Abrams next Trek film seems like they might be thusly inclined...) [/QB][/QUOTE]
