Star Trek Into Darkness : Spec/Ideas/News (SPOILERS)

[Alan Wake]

So? It's the Federation, the usual good guys. We never see the Klingons or the Romulans saving existence.
Considering that the Federation is already 'ahead' thanks to scanning the Narada's future technology, the Klingons may be also, considering a similar encounter with the Narada. The Romulans may also be ahead if Nero gave the Romulans everything he knew about the 'future'. Full disclosure on Spock's part is necessary in any scenario considering the horrible things that WILL happen at some point in the future and the potential changes created by Nero's time travelling.

I'm just saying... the future has already been altered by a milestone. Should we really be changing anymore events? Who knows what Nero did in his 20 year wait, maybe he did give away technology... maybe he didn't.

But I think it's just asking for more trouble in advancing, what over 100 years was it? Some things should just be left alone.

Some good star trek episodes touch on this somewhat, don't give away technology to people or beings who are not ready to use it. The only thing you will get is more death and destruction.

Spock knows more then anyone else the values of holding the prime directive and other rules true. Besides giving away the transporter instructions, I doubt he'll give anything else away.

And so the whale probe will come and destroy Earth, that's if V'Ger doesn't do it first, or the Doomsday Machine. Of course, them destroying Earth will be a blessing if Khan gets free and enslaves it first. At least there won't be an Earth left for the Borg to assimilate in the 24th C.
Spock should spill ALL the beans. The Federation destroying itself is a very remote possibility, while it and the galaxy being destroyed by these various other forces are definites [since I doubt Nero went out and blew up the Borg and every other threat, or COULD have done so].

Maybe "our" Spock has enough confidence in this alternate crew to deal with those challenges, just like before.

[nx01a]

Confidence is one thing, but considering how dumb luck also played a part in saving existence on numerous occasions, it isn't everything.

Oh, I know. I was just playing Devil's Advocate a little.

I agree, they've all done it before without the use of future technology... they can do it again.

I wouldn't say it was all dumb luck.

All the stuff you've listed in your post, you're saying they can't stop all that stuff again?

[nx01a]

I didn't say t was all dumb luck. I said it played a part. The various crews were competent, but chance and coincidence helped them on numerous occasions.

[the fifth man]

No matter the odds, they could always prevail in the end.

[nx01a]

They well might, but they're only human, human/Vulcan, Andorian, etc. They're good, but, sometimes that's not enough. Tasha Yar, for example. Still, fortune favours the bold.

it will be interesting to see how the alternate crew deals with v'ger and the probe from star trek 4. as those events are not affected by the changes

If we see any of that.

i doubt we will but meh you never know

[Karhedron]

Anyone ever read the 'Invasion' series of books?
It is a story that spans from 'TOS' over 'Next Generation' and 'DS9' to 'Voyager'. Very interesting reads and I liked the baddies in that one : an old Empire of several races,looking like the archetypes of anything considered evil in Human,Vulcan and Klingon culture, that were evicted from their area of space . They used to enslave all the races using fear as weapon. And now they are coming back wanting to retake what they think is rightfully theirs. But throughout the book they can't be sure if they are in the right place.

I'd like to see that one (the 'TOS' book of course) being transformed in a movie script format.

Seeing a remake of Khan intrigues me the most out of all the story ideas they could choose to reuse. I just love what a diabolical character he was.
