    Aaaagh! Terrible!

    I think it's extremely unlikely the magic blood will be a plot point. Apart from anything else, I think it's too obscure a piece of continuity to base a mainstream sequel on. It will be swept under the carpet (and maybe jokingly mentioned by Bones).

    We don't know this.

    Kirk is the central character, and he has to be heroic. They got away with Kirk being a jerk in STID, but having him go nuts and attack civilians would lose all audience sympathy.
    Also, with the talk in interviews of NuTrek finally exploring strange new worlds, it's unlikely the plot would drag everyone back to square one and imperil the Earth yet again.

    They are seriously predicting that Khan will be back and somehow working with the heroes, on Earth? It sounds like someone really did not want STID to end.

    "The original series" and "Search for Spock" are not the same thing, being separated by almost 20 years. I think the general feeling among both fans and producers is that, in retrospect, reviving Khan for STID was a continuity nod too far. The new movie should be able to stand up without an overt, "meta" correspondence to a previous iconic storyline.

    I predict the Enterprise's nacelle caps/bussards will finally be red. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking.

    I'll accept fuchsia. I don't want to become a specialist and die out in the coming generations. I'm willing to take fuchsia for what it is.

    Red nacelles would be nice... I prefer Canyon Red of our Ford F-150. If it's good enough for FORD, it should be good enough for StarFleet! :klingon:

    Of course, as long as we really are "out there" exploring the galaxy... ya know, not Earth... then I'm good.

    I predict it will go deeper into the dark side.... OOOps, wrong show! :eek:

    I predict that it will remain away from the better moments of the Star Trek... For sure!

    The color of the cap will pay tribute to Star Trek's origins in the psychedelic sixty.

    Psychedelic colors.
