pyatI hate the new Star Trek movie already!
But I'm willing to believe I could be wrong.
And, frankly, I haven't bothered to see a new Trek movie in the theatres since Insurrection, which came out in 1998, and I didn't like it... and I didn't watch Enterprise, and I largely stopped watching Voyager after that awful mystery episode with the dog, which aired in 1995.
So, really, I'm not sure I'm exactly their target market, these days.
Darn kids.

I am already eager to see what comes of it, but then I wasnt a hardcore Trekkie either.
