[QUOTE="RDKirk, post: 70694370, member: 326155"] I would rather re-watch any of the three reboots than any of the TNG movies save "First Contact." And most of the TOS movies as well. But, true, the reboots are not Rodenberry's Star Trek. The problem is that today's audience is not the audience of the 1960s--I personally am not the same person I was in the 1960s, and I would not be interested in TOS if it were presented in the same way today as it was when I watched it in the 60s. The reboots in concepts and "feel" fit into a darker universe that [B]can[/B] lead to the Dominion War (which had the same effect on the Federation as 9/11 had on the US). Post 9/11 audiences won't really cotton to the TOS/TNG Federation. The DS9/Enterprise Federation is for post-9/11 audiences. the Federation where there is a secretive Section 31 (for acceptable reasons and for unacceptable reasons) are for audiences who understand that the real world has entities like the NSA.
