Dave: I think you’re right about Remus. Two-body Trojan system, after all.

My understanding is that the “original” timeline still exists alongside the “new” one and will continue to do so. Granted that the movie crews don’t have to respect what’s being done in novels and online gaming for the franchise. They do seem to want to leave that particular door open based on interview quotes from elsewhere.

Ummm, Harry… Er… Vulcan “imploded”, not “exploded”…

Otherwise — I am surprised with how much I agree with you. Maybe we think alike! Maybe we are trekkers alike.

And, oh yes, I have admired your work for a few years now. Keep on innovating!

Yours,

I loved the movie but was horrified at the destruction of both Romulus and Vulcan,the fact that the timeline was not restored left me feeling very nervous about the franchise’s future,what are we paying those guys who inforce the Temporal Prime Directive for?

Well they did drop the ball on the whole Xindi thing,but still the loss of these two core worlds in the Star Trek universe? bad medicine I say

Now with this timeline the Alpha quadrant will be doomed to loose the Dominion war

Also I wasnt thrilled with the Romulans looking like extras from Road Warrior I could see if the crew did that out of mourning for their lost homeworld but the scene on Romulus w/ Spock showed they too were bald .

I can only hope Q shows up and snaps the two planets back into existence in the sequel or those temporal agents who pestered Archer rescue Spock and help him do the job right the first time

I’d prefer to see the Skorr or the Kzinti utilized in future sequels too ,if any both have lots of potential as adversaries

Still these complaints aside I really did love the movie
