[OOC] Canon Notes

Article on the Star Trek deleted/scripted scenes

Two things that caught my eye.

The sequence where Kirk and Spock beam on to the Narada has a little extra bit where Spock gets cruelly violent to Romulans at Kirk's order. It's an unattractive moment, best forgotten. It was replaced with the nifty gun battle where the effects guys made the Federation phasers very cool. Definitely a change for the better.

Yeah, thank god /o\

Finally, at the end of the script is provided an alternate take on the scene in which Spock and Spock Prime meet. Before saying goodbye, Spock Prime hands Spock a locket. Spock activates the locket and sees a holographic video of Kirk, and by that I mean Shatner, singing happy birthday to Spock and congratulating him on becoming an ambassador. The message continues, basically telling Spock that the two of them should get back together one more time with a starship and just... explore.

I. Just. That is so cute. A locket ;;

There are some bits on the Kobayashi Maru and the Romulans too.

Man, I must be like the only person who is relieved that the second scene didn't go in. It doesn't really fit the theme of the reboot that these are new people who we should treat differently.

I AM WEIRD.

[borncaptain.livejournal.com]

Actually, no. I think it's a good thing that scene was cut, because it didn't fit in very well.

But I also think it's cute so /o\

[divinefailure.livejournal.com]

Also Generations sucked and the Shat owes me money for renting it.

[borncaptain.livejournal.com]

I don't remember much of Generations WHICH I COUNT MYSELF LUCKY.

I should rewatch Wrath of Khan though.

[divinefailure.livejournal.com]

You should rewatch the FIRST MOVIE.

DO IT FOR SUFFERING.

[borncaptain.livejournal.com]

NO.

[divinefailure.livejournal.com]

DO IT FOR SCIENCE.

[borncaptain.livejournal.com]

I REFUSE.
