the new star trek movies are the kirk and spock show, and even kirk and spock aren't that well developed.
uhura gets better moments and chances of character development than most of the secondary characters who are all guys anyway. she's better than mccoy who was the third most important character in the original

and let's face it she's better developed than tos Uhura whose character while iconic and progressive for the 60s has like 3 seasons and 6 movies to shine but didn't get that much to do.

I know, that's why I said I don't consider it an issue with her being A Female Character. She's just a character in a lackluster action franchise with fairly minimal character development who happens to be female.

I don't think that's a fair comparison, though. TOS!Uhura's role was really progressive for the time. I think the Whoopi Goldberg quote says it best: "Well, when I was nine years old Star Trek came on. I looked at it and I went screaming through the house, 'Come here, mom, everybody, come quick, come quick, there’s a black lady on television and she ain’t no maid!'" New!Uhura might look better in comparison, but when she's being compared to a character from the 60s, that doesn't really mean anything. By contemporary standards she's certainly not a standout.
