    Exactly! What "worked" before, even for the successful Trek movies, won't work again as the genre as a whole has moved on. That's why Trek is failing today...its process is antiquated.

    Yeah, 2005 has been annus horribilis.

    On the same note, Keith Parkinson, the fantasy artist who did many D&D pieces amongst others, has also died.
