Yes, but I haven't seen any STID stuff in the toy aisles. Most of the summer blockbusters are represented. Even that snail movie got a toy line.

ok, no toy, so what?   It doesn't change my point.  No Trek fans, no Trek movies.   No Trek movies,  Pegg doesn't get paid.

Just guessing here but...

You don't like Simon Pegg (and JJ) putting his heart into STID, then reacting angrily when some fans diss it way out of proportion and saying "F*ck you" in response.

...you prefer George Lucas' approach (Who didn't put his heart into the SE changes) of mocking and laughing at the fans who are irritated by the SE changes via his commentary tracks. Plus inserting a gag to annoy the fans into a scene from TPM.

Just so long as George doesn't use a naughty word in the heat of the moment, it's fine. Much better to bide his time, then come back years later and dub Vader going "Noooooooo" and digitally inserting Hayden into ROTJ to piss everyone off. It seems in the SW world, revenge on your fans is a dish best served cold.
