People want new stuff and the industry wants a name that will bring in viewers. The new stuff is an alternate time line and the name is "Star Trek".<br /><br />The days of Star Trek actually being a progressive force for real Science Fiction are long gone. :( It's all guns and stuff blowed up!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569881459810633102.post-26812642049863340732009-04-19T16:14:00.000-04:002009-04-19T16:14:00.000-04:00A recent TV spot showed a very Young Storm in the ...A recent TV spot showed a very Young Storm in the movie as well.

This is where Wolverine is "created" as Weapon X and works for Magneto in the beginning. Wolvie infiltrates the school and attempts to assassinate Xavier. This could explain why we see Cyclops in the trailer. Later, Wolverine betrays Magneto and joins the X-Men. Just a hunch.Makkaiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09552189067572838761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569881459810633102.post-85619730624266301612009-04-16T00:02:00.000-04:002009-04-16T00:02:00.000-04:00I just don't get it.

We've not seen Kirk and Crew during the early years, so why not take what is there....push the boundries a bit and keep what Fans love?<br /><br />And if they aren't going after the TOS fan base, then what fan base are they going after? Not the Next Gen people? They've complete alienated them with the last couple of craptastic movies.Oakstouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18338018420187011141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569881459810633102.post-7156250530645043482009-04-15T18:57:00.000-04:002009-04-15T18:57:00.000-04:00In this universe, those things might not have happ...In this universe, those things might not have happened at all. This is Star Trek, after all. If there can be alternate time-lines where Data is made of wood, or where Spock is "evil", there can be alternate time-lines where Kirk did not beat the Kobayashi Maru. There are even books that detail how Scotty won the Kobayashi Maru. Kinda steals some of Kirk's thunder there.<br /><br />All anyone can do is go see it and either like it or not. They aren't counting on TOS fans to line their pockets with cash like they used to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569881459810633102.post-72828288015635105702009-04-15T16:47:00.000-04:002009-04-15T16:47:00.000-04:00Alternate Universe or NO, to not include the Kobay...Alternate Universe or NO, to not include the Kobayashi Maru would be criminal. I understand that Captain Pike makes an appearance in the Movie...so they are taking from the Lore of the show, so there should be no excuse not to use the "No Win" scenario.Oakstouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18338018420187011141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569881459810633102.post-85137136585034162002009-04-15T15:44:00.000-04:002009-04-15T15:44:00.000-04:00This new Star Trek movie is not exploring the earl...This new Star Trek movie is not exploring the early years of Kirk and crew as you know them.<br /><br />This is set in an alternate universe.
