Faux Trek.

True. It's not really Star Trek, merely an abomination with that labeling falsely applied. We know these characters far too well to accept the creations with their names loosely tacked onto them.

I view it as Star Wars fans getting revenge on the Trek universe. Heaven forbid they could’ve come up with original characters and set it after TNG/DS9 instead of this unholy mess...

Instead, we get:
Captain Pike as John F. Kennedy in the Navy.
Teen Kirk as a snot-nosed brat with zero experience who couldn’t command a dinghy.
Angry Spock who has the hots for Uhura.
McCoy who looks like Gary Mitchell (and where is Gary Mitchell ?)
Comedy Scotty.
Chinese Sulu (Where’s Kumar ?)
A 10-year old “Butters” Chekov.
Bitchy cheerleader Uhura.

Roddenberry is spinning in his grave.
