The thing that really is frustrating is the phenomenon of nostalgia that tends to unfairly poison reboots or even continuations of treasured classics. Admittedly, sometimes the film makers work hard to ruin it themselves (Jar-Jar, CG monkeys, etc.), but it's hard to make a movie that will feel as good as those originals on first run. I think a key will be big action, sparse drama/politics, and lots of 'fan service' in the form of old character cameos that will almost force a smile onto our faces. Those three things are what made the Star Trek reboot so sucsseful IMHO.
