The Star Trek reboot movies use the characters of Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and others, doing missions on the starship Enterprise in the 23rd century.  That's Star Trek..

I like that Star Trek is stil an ongoing thing.  But I'd rather have seen them push forward (as they have done with Star Trek: Picard), and/or see something set between the original series and the Next Generation.  We didn't see much of that era; we only saw small glimpses, such as one episode showing the Enterprise C and a movie that briefly showed the Enterprise B.

 En> Are we too lazy to invent new situations and characters ?

It's always good to see new things too.
