Georgiou was 900 years out of time, Spock (and Nero) only 100. Perhaps that makes a difference.
When did the TOS crew die?
- Thread starter Starred108
- Start date
Tos is a video recreation of events that will happen 200 years from now .kirk.spock.bones etc.havent been born yet.
The human adventure has yet to begin.

There also was a "Mexican Star Trek" in which everybody spoke Spanish, including Scotty, with a Scottish accent, of course.
I wish that Yesterday's Enterprise was with the "A" and connected to the events of TUC, and that at the end, they found a way to send the ship back to fulfill its destiny while saving the crew to continue on in the 24th century.
Interestingly, the romulans, and spock, were moving closer to their time of divergence not farther away, which might have offset some of the effects

Well, yeah.
They're really not dead . . . as long as we remember them.
Caution: rant ahead.
I know some fans loved it, but I cringed at that finale. It struck me as mannered and unnatural on the human level, due to the writing and acting. One contender for worst moment: "So this is how it ends." Does he know he's in a movie? Who talks like that?
Plus, it was unrealistic on the Starfleet service level. Nobody on that bridge is working for a living. Nobody is looking at their instruments. The ship is flying itself— the helm chair is empty, obviously to reinforce the Wonder of Sulu (whose job didn't need doing?). And Sulu's own ship is flying itself, while his 63-man bridge crew take a video call together. Nobody has to work. And to cap it off, the scene is written to change the Enterprise from a capital ship on deployment to a pleasure cruise for the officers. But they're acting like passengers anyway, so at that point, why not?
Well, they are being decommissioned. So, you know, you're right; why not?
It's a thoroughly cinematic moment and for me, a total guilty pleasure. Do people talk like that? No clue. I know I think like that.
I wish it had ended with them heading off on their 4th 5 year mission, adventures ahead!!

What if they're doing the old Delta Vega approach course?
"Missed it by that much."
You mean mine?
No, Trekshark. The quote function doesn't like nested quotes, so I went back and fixed it manually. Sorry for any confusion.

Oh, goodness, that has always bothered me. Even fans far less interested in minutiae than we are on this board know that the helm console is on the left (viewer's right), and so it should be weird that the ship is apparently underway (per the dialogue) without a helmsman.
I know why they did it (including not having some extra in the scene along with the principal cast), but honestly, how hard or unreasonable would it have been to have Chekov slide over to the helm? Yes, that would have been out of joint with Chekov's traditional position, but it's far better than the empty chair issue. Moreover, it would have remedied (at pretty much the last opportunity) a serious oddity about all of Star Trek - Chekov never once takes the helm. Never. You can't tell me that as a highly skilled and experienced navigator, he doesn't know how to fly a ship when Kyle, Leslie, Hadley, and Yeoman Rand do. In fact, The Search for Spock seems to take pains to emphasize that he is a valuable utility player who can be deployed all over the proverbial diamond of bridge stations.
