[QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [QB] http://www.aintitcool.com/node/35208 A common theme in discussions about this movie is how much they're going to adhere to canon, and the rumours to date seem to be that while they'll abide by the spirit of canon, in reality they'll be pissing on the long-time fans from a great height. Now, I don't know whether any of us will be surprised by that. I'm coming round to the way of thinking that maybe we shouldn't be looking at it in these terms. After all, we here are all going to go see the movie, aren't we? Which represents guaranteed bums on seats, no matter how annoyed said arses will be by the time they arise from the chairs in question. The issue then becomes, will this movie pull in the non-Trekkie punters? And if it does, can it still be regarded as a success if the "fans" hated it. And so, I got to thinking: [b]Can you have a Star Trek film that appeals to everyone?[/b] (sorry to come all over Carrie Bradshaw just then. . . not, of course, that there's anything wrong with coming all over Carrie, provided you're actually thinking about Charlotte, Miranda or Samantha at the time) After all, Nemesis was meant to be all actiony to attract a wider audience, and it didn't, and annoyed the fans to boot.
