New Superman about to come out, the Batman films, the new Spiderman reboot. All dark. Perhaps it is the post 2001 world we live in where the vision of the future is not the same as it was during the 60s. Then again during the 60s people were worried about mutual assured destruction.

Poor Star Trek. Vulcan got obliterated in the first new film by Abrams. I expect something different from Star Trek. Discovery, Exploration, A Sense of Wonder, and yes Adventure. From the teaser trailer all I can get is explosions, terrorism of some sort, fear, and war. It's even amusing that for a Star Trek film, I saw very little set in space.

This is not to say that the trailer for the film looks bad in any way. It just doesn't look or feel like Star Trek to me. I want to see the "to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before." made into film. Not another film about some madman trying to destroy Earth and the Federation.
