So, it is going to be a reboot rather than a prequel. I am not sure what to think about it. I have always had a slight fondness for Star Trek, wouldn't consider myself a real "fan" though. My thoughts is that with Star Trek there really isn't a way to ruin it. It is already such a tangled mess. It would be like ruining the EU of Star Wars. Just isn't possible. When I heard it would be a prequel I groaned. Now it is a reboot... interesting. A reboot featuring Kirk and Spock... I fill the urge to groan again. However, either way it has me curious. I was very skeptical about the Bond "reboot" and I ended up loving it. Of course on the other hand I was very excited about the Superman reboot and... well, I am still not ready to talk about that yet.
