Because very few Star Trek movies prior to this one were particularly good movies, that's why. You may have wondered - or perhaps you haven't, but should - why most people never bother to go to see a Star Trek movie. Here's a clue: it's not because Trek fans over the last three decades have been smarter or exercised more discerning taste than the population at large.
Now that might be interesting.

Maybe now that Trek is cool in the media again, we can get a big director for the next one. Like Ridley Scott or Steven Spielberg, etc.
I would like to see anyone other than Abrams, because I just don't like his style of directing.

Wouldn't it?
And I have to admit that I'm unsure if I can agree with your opinion on this, although really, thinking about it now the only one from the prior films that I could see doing some good work with this current take on Trek would be Nimoy. I think he could pull it off, although I can't imagine he has any interest in directing at his age.
I'd like to see JJ come back myself but I don't think this will happen. Ridley Scott would be an interesting choice. Leonard too. A Steven Soderberg Trek film would be most fascinating as well.
Well, of course the previous movies weren't all that good, but I fail to see why this movie is any better. I'm always for a series taking on a new direction with different folks both in front and behind the camera. Does it always work? No. For me, this new direction didn't work because the film didn't do anything for me in general. Not as a Star Trek film, not as a sci-fi film, but as a film in general.
Well, I can't really tell you if I've wondered about it or not because I have no idea what that even means. Are you saying Trek fans don't have a broader idea of what they think is good entertainment compared to the rest of the population?
Well, if you want to appeal to the wide audiences, by all means feel free to dumb down the source material to a typical action movie with pointless camera shaking, in your face douche bag characters, dumb excuses for plot and character development, fan fodder moments that distract more than they add, and most of all, hiring writers who wrote the Transformers movies.
This was not a good movie for me and it just happened to be the one film I've been waiting for ever since I saw the teaser almost two years ago.
Ya, I don't want JJ back. Anyone who says "I'm more of a Star Wars fan than a Star Trek fan" and actually makes Star Trek look like Star Wars gets no points from me.
I'd suggest Kevin Smith, but we'd probably end up with Jay and Silent Bob hanging outside sickbay offering "exotic painkillers" to crewmen who walk by.

Vice Admiral
Which would probably result in a lawsuit from Harlan Ellison!!

Vice Admiral
That would be nothing short of amazing!!
Would happily pay to see anyone but JJ attempt it..
How about Pedro Almodovar, Jean-Pierre Jeunet or Sophia Coppola?

If you want anything done right, you gotta do it yourself.
I suspect JJ will take it afterall.

Give it to me. I could make it so badass even Robau himself would quake in his Starfleet boots watching it.
