GW, You've hit the proverbial nail on the head. It was a good movie, I enjoyed much of it, but it didn't *feel* like Trek. And when some people hear my complaints they think I'm trying to be a "purist" or that I don't like the timeline/alternate reality change. And that's not it at all. I'm not one of those folks who was griping because there was a woman in charge on Voyager or because Picard didn't go around fighting everyone like Kirk did. I like those kinds of changes. I think the timeline/alternate reality thing is bold--even if I'll miss the old guys. No, my issues lay on whether this new Trek will still continue in the vision that (imho) gave the stories such a massive fanbase and following.
