I guess I’m “old school”. I prefer the original star trek series, back
in the day when doing endorsements was unheard of. But if Kirk did
do endorsements, would it be like this cartoon??

actually, i hope they have more star wars type space fighting. star trek space fights have been rather bland. i hope this reboot attracts more of the younger generation that would be more inclined to dogfights rather than submarine style fights.

Compared to typical Star Wars X-wing dogfights, Star Trek submarine-style combat is more calculated. Where Star Wars is tic-tac-toe or crazy eights, Star Trek is chess or poker. Star Wars “arcade drama” is better suited for attention-deficit audiences who might feel that Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek is too cerebral.

Of course the studio wants a box-office success, so Alex Kurtzman could be correct about “We have to bring more Star Wars into Star Trek”. The _original_ Star Wars.
