No, it couldn't. See the very series you refer to in order to see what happens when you throw out established canon to both ratings and fan respect.I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara
For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio -
You're a stupid head! Kirk was the third commander, Pike was the second and Robert April was the first.Originally posted by Dr Strangelove
My understanding is that this will be set at the time of TOS since they're hiring new actors to play the old TOS gang. It can't be a prequel since any real trekkie knows that Kirk was the second commander of the Enterprise . Since the first commander was Pike they can't get the whole gang back together on the Enterprise and pretend that the movie portrays events occuring before the TOS pilot. That is they can't unless they're willing to completely ignore the previously established Star Trek timeline like they did on the last TV series ("shudder').APOSTOLNIK BEANIE BERET BICORNE BIRETTA BOATER BONNET BOWLER CAP CAPOTAIN CHADOR COIF CORONET CROWN DO-RAG FEDORA FEZ GALERO HAIRNET HAT HEADSCARF HELMET HENNIN HIJAB HOOD KABUTO KERCHIEF KOLPIK KUFI MITRE MORTARBOARD PERUKE PICKELHAUBE SKULLCAP SOMBRERO SHTREIMEL STAHLHELM STETSON TIARA TOQUE TOUPEE TRICORN TRILBY TURBAN VISOR WIG YARMULKE ZUCCHETTOComment

If it's TOS timeline I better hear weird whirring noises and 1960's era buttons and displays as in TOS.

rebooting the entire franchise such as batman, superman, and I suppose nbsg (never seen it) is the best way to go. But the problem lies in that star trek fans tend to be a bit, shall we say- crazy and fanatical. I can't imagine the protests.Comment

I want to see a DS9 movie, theirs a LOT of lose end that need to be tied-up, DS9 was one of the most under-rated Trek series, well written with vivid and evolving characters its really far more deserving of a movie then some schlock ToS ret-con no-original-actors crap .Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators, the creator seeks - those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest. - Thus spoke Zarathustra, Fredrick NietzscheComment

Seriously, if this isn't a reboot of the Star Trek franchise, I'm staying home. Star Trek hasn't put a watchable movie out since Final Contact, and hasn't put a truly interesting movie out since the Wrath of Khan - Search for Spock story arc."The nation that controls magnesium controls the universe."

Pike is in the movie as well, so that works out. On the other hand, so is Chekov, who wasn't on the show at the beginning, so they'll be fudging a bit. It's apparently a save-the-timeline plot again...yay.Originally posted by Dr Strangelove

You know the whirring noises made by computers of that era, the 1960s, came from the card reader interface, though computers of an earlier era also had huge banks of mechanical-electrical switches. If the computers were sophisticated enough to have an auditory interface there really wasn't a reason to have them make that noise, but I guess the producers felt that the audience expected the noisy computer.Originally posted by MichaeltheGreat

He was, though he was just outside of the camera view. Thats how he and Khan could recognize each other in ST2.Originally posted by Koyaanisqatsi
