Why is it...

Rating: 6/10 (8 November 2015)

...that the arrogant Writers and Directors of today believe they can do a story better than the originals? I don't know, but I have not found any fan of the original series (or follow up series) who has one positive thing to say about this "new version".
JJ needs to go back and read Gene Roddenberrys Guide to the Star Trek Universe in order to perhaps see where he went wrong here. He also needs to realize that CGI alone does not a movie make...
Heck, JJ even had the temerity to produce an engine room scene that literally looked like it was shot in an oil processing facility, so enormously huge that it would have taken up over two thirds of the "real" Enterprise..and let's not forget they had the slowest transporter ever in a Star Trek universe.
To put how badly this one came and went, my son even thought it was an insult...and he is much more tolerant of todays movies than I am...
