[QUOTE]Originally posted by Capt_Spencer: [QB] But (for some reason), if there is one thing I can NOT stand, it is historical revisionism. Take that as you like it, for this is obviously all fiction, of course. ^_^ I believe that these techie Trek fans have a right to be upset, for as long as it may last (even as long as Dixon, apparently), because they do revise quite a bit - the Eugenics Wars being a prime example. They may not be blatantly contradicting what was established with this whole Klingon issue, but (in my opinion) it's going against the built-up "feeling" of what things were like in the mid 22nd century. Some people didn't have a preconception. I, for one, never went into too much detail. But even the feeling is in direct conflict with what we've seen the past month on the air. Like I said before, I'll still watch "Enterprise." But it is decidedly for entertainment value only, not for incorporation. It's my choice to make, and every fan must make their own decision likewise, if they already haven't. I can keep it all separate from previous Trek, it's not like being in my own little world is a new thing with me. ;-) Fans were upset before because a decade's worth of self-created material was chucked out the window when they revived Trek, proper. Now, they have several hundred hours of material to base things on, not just 70-something hours. It just doesn't feel right. I, for one, loved DS9 as much, if not MORE than TNG. I taped nearly every episode of Voyager, too. I am one of the fans of all 4 series, so, for me to be taking this continued stance on "Enterprise" has got to be saying something. For what it's worth, I've been trying *not* to read about what's going on with the next movie. Like SW Ep. II, I want to be surprised when I go into the theatres. I can only *hope* that the entire Star Trek franchise doesn't turn "south of cheese." I love each and every of the previous Star Trek films (yes, even 1 & 5, to slightly lesser degrees - come on, I think a Special-edition VFX makeover for 5 would help a bit, don't you?), and would really hate to have to watch ST:10 in the same way as "Enterprise" - for entertainment at the time of watching, only; not for personal canon. Still, we know the Ent-D/E crew, they've been good to us so far. I've heard rumours ranging from Voyager cast coming aboard, to tying in "Enterprise," so who knows what it'll turn out like...? Like "Enterprise," I shall reserve judgement until I see it for myself. I just hope I'm less disappointed, this time around. ~ Jason [/QB][/QUOTE]
