Yes, but given that those were their stories to expand upon, they are granted leeway. Rebooting the series with a whole new crew (or the same crew, different cast)—altering the universe in which that previous crew existed in the process—is the sort of thing you would hope they'd be doing with bigger ideas than

As a lifelong fanatic of all things Star Trek... I am sincerely bothered by the total lack of effort on the part of the storytellers. I know it was just Chris Pine stating what he would like to do, but you can bet the studio would be more than willing to harvest, yet another story from TOS. If the next film is as

That makes you the key demo, which is cool for you. Personally, I am not interested in seeing a continual retelling of old Star Trek stories. I like those stories enough as they were.

I don't think they can understand what you just said. How are you supposed to please the fans if you don't rip off an existing Trek storyline? Oh, I'm sorry, "homage", not ripoff.

The people involved in the Star Trek films really need to stop looking to prop up their dumb ideas by pointing to the Original Series. If their dumb ideas can't stand on their own, then they're probably not really ideas in the first place.

So if I painstakingly use the miniature training that I got in art school to make immaculate and architecturally perfect sets for my Marvel Legends figures to play in, you'll do a story? No, DON'T ANSWER. I know the answer in my heart.

Quitting my job tomorrow. This is it. BIG TIME. BIG TIME, AVENGERS. You hear me,

Those are the sunglasses that he stole from his first victim. The one who died of a heart attack seeing his face.

I hate that this is how headlines are written nowadays, to get the click-views. I feel gross. Do you really need to include the post-semicolon statement? Jezebel is trying to be Buzzfeed now; not a smarter Cosmo?

This is patent trolling at its absolute worst. This is an awful, poisonous business practice.

I don't consider myself a violent, or irrational person. I try to think things through logically before reacting to a situation, as my reaction may be taken the wrong way by observers.

Not really considered 'genre' but the opening of The Lion King was arresting in the theatres. Yes, I saw a Disney movie in the theatres. Try not to faint. Anyway, that fade up from black to a fast sunrise cresting the horizon of an African plain cued to the signature musical yell is second to none when I think of

Okay so, I'm kind of cheating, but not only did those graphics blew my mind at the time, the beauty of night-time New York plus the strangely eerie ambiance it starts with is just... aah.

The very first scene from the very first Futurama (can't find a clip online).

Downton Abbey—this show about the lives of the upper class and their servants opens with a dog's ass... what better commentary on the class system than this?

I know ST:Enterprise doesn't get the most love but I loved the opening imagery with the historical references.

Now we can actually be John Malkovich! Huzzah!

Not that the original didn't have its very strong points, but Star Trek: The Next Generation really did improve and expand upon both the setting and the quality of the narrative in ways that we now pretty much take for granted.

The Addams Family was the only good thing to come out of those dark days in the not too distant past when the studios tried really hard cash in on TV nostalgia.
