"We made this film not for Trekkies but for future fans of Star Trek," Abrams told a news conference. "The studio wanted to give the film a fresh start, and I was originally brought in as a producer, but upon reading the script, I saw so much potential and possibility that the original had failed to realize due to technological constraints, so I got very greedy and I decided to direct it myself."
This makes me hopeful that the movie might be good, and that there might be hope for the franchise. For good or ill, the old franchise has long since reached intellectual exhaustion - it either needed a full reboot, or retirement.
