Star Trek XI Teaser Trailer

IIRC, this is on “star trek” .com ? if so, it;s pointless, as the point I was making is what ‘fans’ consider canon vs alot of stuff - this is why movies that make attempt to re-do certain things are frought with peril.

A pointy-eared MILF. There’s gotta be a niche porn market for that.

do you consider the memory alpha site to be canon?

and further from

It’s official policy. Wikipedia has a good overview of it.

For the most part but, then, my own personal canon (fanon) has a lot of my own conjecture, hand waving, and cherry picking in it. The plaque says it’s starship class but later episodes say Constitution and I subscribe to the latter notion since all large spacefaring vehicles are starships in my mind.

To use another example, novels are most emphatically not canon, for instance, but I consider the DS9 Relaunch to be a continuation of the television show but that doesn’t make it so. If there’s ever a movie, it will be canon and the books will not be.

You and I can believe whatever we want about the series but, in the end, what is aired is what is “real”.

Thanks for reminding me of the blueprints. My copy is in a box in the garage, and I’ll try to dig them out, but I’m pretty sure that is where I got the impression the Enterprise was built at Mars.

Please. Amanda is human.

I like the South Park episode even better, “Yes yes!”

Just to insert some physics into the argument (God help me) I just have to say that having something in synchronous orbit over San Francisco would be a royal pain in the ass. SF is at almost 38 degrees north and that would be hard to factor for. More likely would be either an equatorial orbit at 122.5 West which would put them in the eastern Pacific or a geosynchronous orbit which would go from 38N to 38S.

Robert April first appeared in the animated Star trek episode “The Counter-Clock Incident ,” a rather bad episode in which the Enterprise passes through a super nova and into an alternate universe where time flows backwards. In a reversal of “The Deadly Years,” Kirk and his crew begin to reverse-age into infants. Retired captain April and his wife Sarah, whom the Enterprise had been transporting to a conference on Babel, remain adults longer than the rest of the crew due to being older than everyone else. With the aid of a scientist from the alternate dimension, who the Enterprise pursued through the supernova, April and his wife assume command of the Enterprise and guide it back into its normal universe. They then use the transporters, which contain the pattern of every crew member, to restore everyone back to their proper age.

At one point, Gene Roddenberry declared the animated episodes as non-canon. I don’t know if this particular episode has been restored to canon.

In the Star Trek Encyclopedia which I earlier mentioned, the authors Photoshopped Roddenberry’s head onto a “Where No Man Has Gone Before”-era uniform, and used it to illustrate the brief entry on Capt. Robert T. April.

HD trailer now found here.

This movie is written by the pair responsible for the Transformers movie script.

That may well be 'nuff said. :frowning:

I can’t find a cite at the moment, but supposedly in an interview, Nimoy has said that the film has “three Spocks” in it.

Well, that in itself doesn’t bother me. (Should it?)

-FrL-

Star Trek III: The Search for Spock had three Spocks, after all - the little kid, the pon farr-suffering teen, and Nimoy as the old fart.
