Aka Nutrek or new trek. Refers to films and series of Star Trek made from 2009 onwards. Nu-trek is generally controversial with some hardcore Trekkies wanting to burn it to the ground and others showering it with praise. Nu-trek is a term typically used by the former but most Reddit posts about ST will have it somewhere.
Trekkie 1: JJ Abrams and Alex Kurtzman ruined Star Trek. Nu-trek is so political and dramatic and full of lens flares.
Trekkie 2: Nu-trek is quite good actually. I especially love Michael Burnham and the way the Federation is portrayed as less idealistic and more dystopian.
Trekkie 1: *sets phaser to kill*
A popular series in the mid 60s. Created by Eugene Roddenberry and is one of the most popular science fiction topic in the world. Mostly about a captain exploring space and thinks of clever ways other than attacking(last resort) to solve problems. The motto is "to boldly go where no man has gone before."
Star Trek is on everynight at 7:00.
A television show originally spawned by Gene Roddenberry. It Is the greatest science fiction show ever produced. It, unlike nearly every other science fiction show or movie, relies on a cerebral approach to solve a poblem rather than a gun, something that is very twoubling in today's science fiction. Star Wars posesses a James Bond sort of quality of shoot, shoot again, shoot some more, blow up something, kill billions of people only to be redeemed by saving one.
It is a great travesty that after the murder of billions, Vader was redeemed by saving the life of one, his son, who also killed billions all in the name of an equally imperialistic cause. Star Trek would never allow that.

A show that has spanned almost 40 years. While now insulted and unliked, it was once one of the greateest shows. Despite the lack of popularity, there are still millions of 'trekkies' and 'trekkers.' It has 5 serieses and 10 movies, and many online forums. Someday, it may be famous again.
I enjoy "Star Trek" because of its ideas of the future.
