Absolutely Right™.

If I'm going to write something off, it will be because of what it actually is, not because of what it might be, and certainly not because some people are tossing around a particular word. (Didn't we already see quite enough of that nonsense with Enterprise and "prequel" alone?)

Besides, getting all in a froth over "reimagining" is silly. Sickening? The word itself is already woefully obsolete, having been replaced with "re-imaging" more than a year ago.

Dunno, maybe the old word confused too many people.

Or something.

As for Star Trek XI, I'm thinking that waiting at least until a few things are nailed down a bit more securely than they are at present -- story, cast, stuff like that -- is probably not a bad thing. There'll still be plenty of time to get excited later.
