What are your thoughts about seeing the prime universe again?

There are certainly elements in common. But, presumably there is a reason for why he chose Prime over Kelvin based on elements available in the Prime.
Mr Awe
I read your posts. It seems you're having a hard time dealing with the fact that the new series will be in the prime trek universe.
The voyages of the TOS crew and indeed Starfleet's history unfolded very differently in the Prime universe than they did in the Kelvin universe. Kirk's history is very different. There are elements that are unique to each universe and there are some shared ones.
It's really not difficult to comprehend.
Mr Awe
And you should care about Bill's opinions about that, why?
Sure doesn't seem like you comprehend them...
As much as it drives some crazy, talking about various possibilities doesn't mean one is having a "hard time".
I think the prime haters have trouble grasping the concept. Kirk had a father in prime to raise him. Nukirk was raised by his mom because his dad blown to bits. Completely unique elements to each universe.
And with the wave of a magic wand, a few chicken scratches, and an attaboy, all that can easily be changed.
There is nothing inherently exclusive to the Primeverse or the Kelvinverse or the Discoverse or the multiverse or the reverse or the unicornverse.
Nothing.
Whatever makes you feel better with having to deal with the prime universe being back in new star treks stories. Good timing since the last nutrek.universe film did horrible. Prime trek is by far the superior trek thus far.
Not to mention Prime Kirk was actually a competent captain! In 28 years of documented service he destroyed only one ship!
What did I do now?!?

Exacty. Nu kirk sucks. He is already on 1701-A 20 years earlier then real kirk. Horrible captain.
If he continues like that in a few years/movies he's gonna be the sole captain of Enterprises A, B, C, D and bloody E!

Lol. Yeah by the time nupicard gets his enterprise he won't be able to.say "plenty of letters left in the alphabet"because nukirk will have used so many.

Don't forget nuKirk had an abusive stepdad, who drove a reallllly old car and listened to "classical" music.
For all we know, Prime Kirk may have had an abusive parent. There is nothing we know about his parents from the Prime timeline.
That's true. Character development beyond the core cast was never a Trek strength. Not until DS9, that is. Then they overtly abandoned it again with Voyager
