Paramount has driven this franchise straight into the ground, and I doubt that there are enough Trekkies out there that will take the time to put down thier Klingon Version of Hamlet, stop playing with their dolls er collectibles and take time out of thier debate with a fellow trekkie about who was a better Captain Kirk or Picard to go to the Theater.

Nemesis was promoted as this huge leap forward for Trek with the writer of Gladiator at the helm and it was the first movie I walked out of since my girlfriend tried to convince me that TomCats with Jerry O'connell could be funny.

Just let it die already.

Star Trek doesn't need another shovel full of dirt on its face.
Well, this is a completely different approach. A group of actors unknown to the Star Trek community. A completely new set of writers, directors, and producers. A large budget and the complete backing of studio, plus positioning the movie to be a hit with Star Trek fans and others as well.
