Why are Star Trek fans so bitter about the reboot?

Oh even better, give command to a dropout!

benbess, want to know something really funny though - when you adjust for inflation, the 2009 movie makes only $15 million more than TMP while Into Darkness drops to 4th making only about $4 more than Wrath of Khan so really, it isn't like these movies are making a ton more money than the old films.

But look at budget vs return - TMP made over 3 times back its budget while the JJ films are making about 2.5. Wrath of Khan made something like 7 or 8 times its budget! Granted not all the films did as good but really these films are only average in returns - most of the films did at least 2.5(I think even 5 did). The only reason the box office is so good is because tickets cost more now.
