I saw an interview with Abrams once where he said he never was a fan of Star Trek because he didn't "get it".

What? Seriously?

[forgottenjester]

Yup, it was on the Daily Show. Though apparently it's out of context and he also said he really respects it and he grew to appreciate it or something? I don't know. It was so long ago when I heard this.

Actually, iirc, it wasn't until he started doing the movie and rewatched them he got some appreciation for them...but also that he was making the movies for people "like him" which...really does not bode well for any of the future movies.

[forgottenjester]

I never said it was before he got the job to do the movies? Just that he grew to appreciate it later.

And yeah, one step forward two steps back.

[(Anonymous)]

I wasn't saying you were? Just clarifying what he'd said since he'd already started working on the movie before he come to appreciate the series which still leaves it in '...And you guys wanted him/he agreed to this because...?'

[forgottenjester]

Oooooohh. Okay. I'm having issues with communication recently. Ignore me.

Yeah. The worst part really is him saying that he's not making it for the fans, which is not only an outright lie when the last movie was half shout-out material to another movie but also misses one of the best parts, in my opinion, of Star Trek. Yes, by all means broaden the appeal to more people because that's a good thing, but don't do that at the expense of the material itself, you know?

[(Anonymous)]

He goes on to say he didn't appreciate it as a kid and it wasn't until he was older that he understood the appeal. Now it's his favorite show. (Or one of them, can't remember the exact phrasing.)

*with the implication of that didln't like the series because it was too "philosophical"
