on the one hand i agree with what you're saying, but when you think about it almost none of the actors were sci-fi or technically savvy with the exception of GW, TR, or RP. when you look at someone like RD who came in with a dim view of sci-fi, she handled the technobabble like a champ. almost everyone did. i think it came to the underlying attitude of how you perceived both your job and the genre itself which RB has said he loathed then and now.
Right! So if he already went in with that attitude, then I think it's still saying Trek sci-fi isn't the genre for him. Not sci-fi in general. Sci-fi like Star Wars, nuBSG or stuff like "Children of Men" & "District 9" don't require knowledge of sci-fi or techinical stuff because it's more real world type drama than sci-fi. That type of sci-fi might be more suited for the type of scripts and acting he's used too.
