Dave’s ALL SPOILERS Star Trek Thread

[Dave]

“As sure as day follows night, as sure as eggs is eggs and as sure as every odd-numbered Star Trek movie is shit…”

I haven’t seen the new Star Trek movie, and given my current financial predicament I probably won’t get to see it soon.

So I’m offering up this thread for your various observations, reviews and spoilers, and maybe we can keep others threads spoiler free? I’d really appreciate it.

So boldly go nuts: Edith Keeler must die, I grok Spock, Robert Beltran is a twat

>It was the original plan to save Romulus (Nero and Spock tried it together) but it has already been destroyed at this point in time. That is also how Nero got hold of that kind of superadvanced technology.

I get that. But Romulus is destroyed in 2387, 150 years after the Kelvin scenes and 130 years after the Vulcan scenes. Romulan vengeance would be better served by invading Vulcan and claiming it as their own.

Oh, I get it. Yeah.

> Better that he stay in the new timeline, rather than make what Nero did completely inconsequential. If ?our? Spock went through a magic door back to the life he knew why should we give a shit about the characters we?ve just had to re-invest in?

Fair point, but beyond a few moments mostly involving McCoy I can’t say I cared about the characters much.
