After what he did to Star Wars I refuse to spend a single dollar on anything he touches.
He disrespected two of the largest fandoms in the world. It's refreshing to see some actual consequences for producing so much crap, even if that's not directly why he downsized.
What he did to Star Trek was just awful, and totally set the stage for the ongoing paramount bastardization of new trek. This is absolutely deserved.
I'm okay with but not enamored of new Trek, but what Abrams did was so bad it made new Trek look great.
I don't hate the Kelvinverse movies, I appreciate they're in a separate timeline and they can be fun popcorn movies. Movie Trek is always a different angle.
That said, I wonder what Star Trek Discovery looks like if it was trying to follow TV Trek's footsteps instead of being JJ-esque lensflare and martial arts. Seems like they had to make a few crappy shows just to triangulate that people want to take their time and get to know a crew like they did in the older series.
Good riddance, his Mistery Box bullshit was responsible for the creation of so many shitty shows
