You should give JJ's 2 new Treks a go, they're alot of fun.
Sorry, but my mind's made up. Aside from the idea that the act of travelling through time creates parallel universes, everything - and I mean every single, solitary thing - I've heard, read, or seen about either movie is goddamn awful. I'd rather watch all the worst episodes of TNG along with Insurrection and Nemesis in one, long sitting than see anything from Abrams' tripe.
Besides, if you have to sacrifice intelligence for "fun", then I'd rather have the gods strike me down for apostasy.
Plus you can be safe in the knowledge that since it takes place in an alternate time stream our old friends are still safe.
I tell that to myself all the time in regards to the original Stargate film and Stargate SG-1 - it's still just a cold comfort at best, and means absolutely nothing in the end.
