Nice try. TAS was seen onscreen and is NOT canon. That means that NOT EVERYTHING seen on screen is canon.

TAS should be canon.
Canon, not canon. Those bastards blew up Vulcan!!!!! (and I don't mean the Romulans). :-)
I hereby declare the word canon to be non-canon. To describe this concept from now on, you should use the sentence 'all that stuff nobody really wants to think about where everything conflicts and all is well when technobabble is used'. Thank you for your time.
NuTrek is Star Trek. I saw the title on the screen.
See?
Must have been something you missed. We understand. Noise, a dark theater, glancing down to grab a handful of popcorn, or someone walking past you in the row ahead...
Completely understandable.
I'm glad we had this chance to talk.
Oh...
The "canon".
The timeline.
It's changed.
It now is canon. The only canon there is.
The past is altered.
Did you know that in Generations it was canon, briefly, for the entire crew of Enterprise D to die horribly as a sun exploded?
Thing is, the past was then changed, and they didn't die.
Same thing here.
See how simple that was?
Now, go, and rejoice in your newfound understanding of all that is Trek.
Star Trek lives!
Well, it's not "canon" in the "old" Star Trek universe, but canon in its own "new Trek" universe.
That's not really true though is it. Nero and Old Spock are from the "old Star Trek universe", post Nemesis era. It is their accidental time-travel which creates this "new Trek universe". One is merely the continuation of the other - and since this is all onscreen it must logically be considered as canonical.
He probably saw the first female in the last 40 years. No wonder he's a bit shaken up, the poor bugger. We should go easy on him, with all these little jokes and stuff.
can we just close this?
TAS is the one and only exception to the rule, due entirely to Roddenberry's own declaration that it was non-canonical.
Hell of a way to start a thread.
Next time you do this - referring to the film as 'crap' without posting any substantiation whatever for your assessment, it will be a warning for trolling.
Please check the board rules - they are VERY specific on this matter.
Thanks.
Yes, but perhaps Roddenberry has been de-canonized before his demise... Thus making his canon statement about the canon status of TAS (it being non-canon) non-canon. Something to think about.

Hey now. Im only 33 and Im married.
Oh, that's a brilliant point! I never thought of it like that! No one ever complains that we did see a fully assimilated Earth, or an Earth with no humpback whales, either.

Woopdeedoo. Now Star Trek consists of one movie.
Upon reading further into this thread, I can easily see that this is going nowhere good, remarkably fast.
Started out like 'crap'.
And went downhill from there.
Thread closed. Thanks for playing.
