I always thought that they should try to build on the series after Voyager ended rather than try to reinvent it. It had an incredible base cannon and following. It appealed to the ideals which is what Roddenberry wanted.
Sadly that is lost on this sleep walking generation.
Well I can't speak for whether any particular generation is walking in its sleep, I was also a bit disappointed by the decision to reboot the franchise in the new movies. More importantly, I think it was unfortunate the JJ Abrams, a director who is capable of better, brought us a more or less standard action flick that on occassion throws a bone to original fans with a reference what came before. It only serves to remind us that what came before was better, if less extravagantly funded. I guess that is the primary hope of the new series... That it will build on the core vision rather than demolish it entirely.
