Huge Star Trek XI Spoiler

Postby Elessar » Wed Apr 08, 2009 5:04 am

This isn't for the faint of heart. I'm talking, "Riker is chef, Trip dies, and Shran's a jewel thief" type stuff. Not kidding. Walk away now. I'm warning you... it's not pretty. Well, it's... whatever it is.

Seriously if you don't like spoilers don't read this because it's probably going to AT LEAST be a big "Holy *&$!%!" moment in the theaters, if nothing else. So you might want to save yourself the surprise. In some ways I wish I had saved it but... in other ways, hmphf. I wanted to know what I was walking into so I didn't break down crying like a little girl in front of strangers.

Funny how Star Trek writers have a habit of causing that lately :? :lol:

SPOILER!!!:
Vulcan is destroyed. Permanently.... Ok, well since you probably want to know HOW the hell that's possible, so you'll probably just go google for spoilers on your own, I'll just say it. It's an alternate universe. Like, it's an ADMITTEDLY an alternate universe.

Uh? I am kinda slow. Please explain more about this.

SPOILER!!!:
So the whole thing about Trip's death in the abomination episode turns out to be set in an alternate universe? Or this whole new movie is set in an alternate universe?
Working on a major fan fic project. Two-thirds done. Hope to put it up in the not TOO distant future.

The movie. Although the way they set it up it still doesn't make sense, because all the visual changes apparently are still supposed to happen before the AU stuff starts happening.

CX, what do you mean by
SPOILER!!!:
visual changes.
?

Linda, if you want more details,
SPOILER!!!:
the villain, Nero, is a Romulan from the future, not from Kirk's time. He's there to destroy Vulcan for some vendetta against Spock... I don't know the details, though... so that's why it's AU, the time travel involved.

Somebody remind me how to see what's in the spoiler box?

It's flavored with passionfruit
an appropriate ingredient, don't you think?

Okay...but I thought AU was an alternate universe, and time travel in your own universe was not considered an alternate universe. Sounds like I am not going to like this movie very much. It still makes very little sense.

I think the same.
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four

And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

Eh, it will get fixed. It has to be. If not in the first one, then in the sequel.

It might be the most spectacular movie ever, but this really hurts...

Exactly. And, frankly, I'm tired of all this.
