   The franchise doesn't need silly knock-off reboot movies to attract new   
   audience. It's been doing that for decades all by itself simply as fans   
   grow up and watch the movies with their children (and grandchildren).   
      
   What the fans wanted were new stories which fit within the established   
   universe. Not lazy-ass, "Politically Correct" recreations of the   
   originals.
