   They need to come up with new stories and not rehash the old themes.  I don't   
   want to see more "Q" and "Borg" themes.  Let's start to explore and "Go Where   
   No Man Has Gone Before" rather than rewrite all the old stories.  They also   
   have to get away from the Uhura / Spock romance too.  It was a bad idea   
   totally out of character for Spock.  Time to see the other characters beside   
   Kirk and Spock develop.  The little "imp" that follows Scotty around needs to   
   go to.   
      
   They really got off on the wrong foot and I don't know now if two movies into   
   the "new Trek" they can right the ship and get back on course.  Perhaps the   
   next movie could show that this was a parallel universe and close that opening   
   then they can get back to being the characters, (but not the old rehashed   
   stories), the we all loved and grew up with.   
      
   I accept them as the characters, they did a good job casting them, in fact in   
   the second movie in some of the shots of Chris Pine I was saying to myself he   
   could have been a young Shatner.  They looked like brothers even twins.  But   
   they did a poor job with the story lines they wrote and now it may be too   
   late to close that book.  If so then the next movie may be the last.
