All Paramount can really do is market to the target audience, which IMO, is a waste of money. Die hard Trekkers are going regardless and I seriously doubt that this film will appeal to a broader fan base. |

And now that it is becoming an action series, I'm sure it will continue to rise in monetary fortune. Kinda sucks for those of use that liked it as a scifi series, and not a blockbuster summer event for the masses.

If the movie tanks, it might need to go back to TV for another decade or more, which is probably the smart move in the long run, anyway. |

They also suck at tying in the series with the movies. They should have been replaying TNG and the original series in the lead up to the release to Into Darkness. Instead we got a WHO IS THIS VILLIAN IT'S NOT KHAN HOHOHO! (Which no one outside of trekkies knew anyways). |

It's coming back to TV. Wish it would be to Netflix but CBS will do.

Paramount? Quote:
Of course, they didn't. Paramount is lucky to be in business with all of the blunders they've made in the past 30 years. |

I won't. I'd rather wait until it's flipped to Amazon or Netflix or it shows up on Blu Ray, well, that is, if the reviews are any good. I'm skeptical that they can make this work. |

Yeah. That's a big no go for me. Star Trek is pretty much dead to me.

I like the creative team behind it.
Nicholas Meyer and Bryan Fuller are certainly talented. Now if CBS can market this into a hit? Who knows...

Fuller and Meyer are talented but what's the budget? How long will CBS allow them to build an audience? There are too many questions at this point, especially about the cast and timeline. |

2nd movie was good. Not spectacular but I thought it was better than most did. This 3rd one I'm not feeling it yet. Why do we have to have a whole new world, with new stories? There is so much material to work with. Why can't you expand on something from the history and make it pertinent to non ST fans as a movie?
