Funny Thing seeing as how Orci says he is a fan of the novels star trek final frontier and best destiny that show more of a true version of a prequel of sorts.

They changed the story from the true origins to be marketable, they did the job paramount wanted. The trekkies let star trek enterprise get cancelled anyway in 2004, and let nemesis bomb.

Also how much similar the JJ version is to the Top Gun trek that Harve Bennett tried to get made, i mean the idea of doing younger versions of the original series cast was proposed before and rejected.

Trekkers and Trekkies drew a line in the sand and wanted Rick Berman gone, and into that vacuum steps Abrams.

I mean its like when Meyer, Bennett and Nimoy took Trek away from Roddenberry and the day will come when someone replaces JJ too.
