Oh, I have nothing against the new Star Trek films. I liked them both a lot; probably the best Star Trek media we've gotten since DS9 ended (

A lot of die hard Trekkies are really upset about what they perceive as a "dumbing down" of Star Trek into big, mindless action flicks instead of thought-provoking character drama. Orci seems to get most of the blame for this, something that he didn't help by going into an expletive-laden rant in response to a critical blog post.
