I'm not going to argue with you Vllad, but let's face it, core Trekkies left the franchise in droves starting with Voyager.
I'm not going to argue that Paramount tried everything to keep Star Trek lore and history intact. That would be stupid considering how many times they absolutely fucked it over completely with every attempt to build around the history as established by TOS.
I still don't know how I feel revisiting the TOS characters without the established history, but they sure did figure out a way to free themselves of it.
I know as a TOS fan, I'll just be happy if they respect what the show was all about, that is, the relationships among the main characters. As soon as they start screwing with those completely, I think you will see the new franchise fail. At this point, I think they've just added some twists taht I'd really like to see through.
I mean, really, who cares if the crew of the Enterprise never gets to meet Plato's Children this time around?
