So it's officially a reboot now, not a sequel or prequel. 
It's an altquel. 
Cool. 
Although I wish they had done an actual reboot instead of time travel and alternate universe.

I prefer the term flashsideways.

That sounds like a nighttime, sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, fever, so you can rest medicine.
Oh wait, that's Nyquil...
It's a preboot. Or a requel.So it's officially a reboot now, not a sequel or prequel.
It's a reboot to anyone who doesn't know what a Horta is - and can name the episode in which it appeared, the famous line of McCoy's associated with it...
Then they don't know what the fuck they're talking about. Both Batman Begins and Casino Royale are far superior to Drek09 in terms of being reboots yet also as films.

OK, let me see if I absorbed any of the Trek lore my father tried to instill in me: A Horta is a silicon-based life form that appeared in the episode The Cloud Minders (I think) and McCoy's line was, "Dammit, Jim! I'm a doctor, not a bricklayer." Am I right? Its been a long time since I've seen any TOS.
"The Devil In the Dark", but otherwise, spot on.
Thanks! Don't know why that particular episode title came to mind, but oh well. I'm a geology student and a Horta is the closest thing we have to living rocks!
I'd say they know exactly what they are talking about: their personal opinions.
