I don't like him already.
TO ME he was obviously playin' that poor girl.

The years don’t add up and it was a different star that went nova, which somehow, also destroyed Romulus. In typical JJ fashion, that’s never explained of course.
They match up fine. All Spock really says is that there was a supernova that destroyed Romulus.

In UK so cant watch until tomorrow 24th on Amazon Prime.
Seems like the overall reception is positive so far which is good to see, I get the feeling that Picard isnt going to be as polarising as Disco.

I always assumed it was the Romulan sun that went supernova the first time I saw the 2009 movie.
Agreed. He’s probably Tal Shiar, acting like that to get info of her.I don't like him already.

Probably watched many CW shows to know how to seduce women. Using his dead brother for one.
Nah, I think Lore is completely and 100% dead. Thank God. He was so evil.
Me too. The wording is vague so you could take it either way. Which means that "picard" doesn't actually contradict it, it clarifies it.
Yeah, I'm thinkin' that Data made completely sure Lore wouldn't be able to return again.
Probably destroyed Lore's head at the very least.
But the issue there is that it went nova, and then they organised a plan to save Romulus. They wouldn’t have had the time to do that if it was their sun as it would only take minutes to hit them.
Yeah, J.J. kept the details so vague it could have meant any star within range of Romulus. It's own sun makes more sense because any other kind of nova threatening star systems light-years or parsecs distant stretches credulity even in Trek science.
Does he know he’s banging a robot I wonder?From what we saw in the trailers, he is going to get A LOT more than just info.
Could be that there were signs that the sun was going to destroy itself, but that exact timing couldn't be calculated or it suddenly went a lot faster than expected.
Correct. If it had been the Romulan star that exploded I doubt they would have had time to do anything.
There had to have been enough time between discovering the threat and the actual explosion for Spock and the Vulcan Science Academy to work on the Red Matter. That can't have been an overnight creation, even for scientists as adept as Vulcans and Spock.
Which is why it's so beautifully consistent.
A supernova should be predictable, years in advance. Hence an evacuation fleet.
OTOH, a supernova wouldn't be predictable down to the minute. Hence Spock launching on a mission and nevertheless being late. He must have launched before there was an explosion, because after an explosion, nothing would be unpredictable and Spock would not launch on a hopeless mission.
No distant star could meet all the criteria for Spock's mission. As of now, everything ever stated about it holds true in the same universe. Except perhaps for Spock's hyperbole of the kaboom threatening the galaxy. Although that, too, may pan out - loss of Romulus will not go without major interstellar consequence.
Now, did we hear anything about planets other than Romulus (and perhaps Remus?) being lost?
