At the end of the day, TOS is what matters. This new movie is just a typical disposable Hollywood action flick. At least TOS is remaining unmarred. Even if you are not a fan of the remastered TOS, the beauty of it is both are available. The Trek community is lucky that this movie will be forgotten in short time. Sure it is not going to do anything to get us more real Trek in the future, but neither was nothing, which is what we had coming before this. Trek has been dead for a while now, all we are seeing is the final nail. It dies with a bit less dignity, but it didn't have much of that left over the past several years. I mean, how much dignity can a whore really die with?
She'll be missed, but there are a lot of great memories of her, and those memories are all being preserved in beautiful blu-ray HD presentation. A lot better than the treatment the die hard Star Wars fan's whore of preference is getting. Poor old girl needs to retire, but is getting used more than ever, by younger and younger clients, who treat the girl with increasing roughness, not something she needs at her age.
Sorry for the crudeness of this analogy. It feels very fitting to me, but I admit, it is rather crass.
