J J Abrams used computer cheat codes.
Seriously folks (SPOILER ALERT)
“Prime” Spock, as they put it, is trapped in the past.
We have HUGE errors in the continutity only a pot head, snorting cocain, chased with a enian and johnny walker (ugh) can think is consistent.
(SPOILERS ALERT II)
Perhaps the next episode can address the continuity issues (principle planet destruction, main character’s sexual affair in his position as professor with one of his students, AMANDA GRAYSON!)
The sound track in the back ground was not trek, it was almost like it wanted to be Narnia I.
For the next one they better demonstrate their REAL skill at telling a story by respecting the cannons.
Using “cheat codes” just exposes weak writers who can’t tell a story.
(plus I though kirk did not become captain until his 30’s not 25! talk about blatent marketing)
PS: Keep in mind Paramout owns the star trek franchise outright pretty much. see: merchandising, video games, casino themes, dvd sales, spin offs, star trek perfume...
They moved canon aside, that was part of the point of the story, this is an alternate time line, all that canon stuff happened over there in that other time line. This wasn’t a prequel, this was a shaking of the etch-a-sketch, they have no intention of this being able to lead up to TOS, this is the start of a whole new run.
