Prime Universe time travel and the new timeline

I've seen this attempt to equate the two before. I don't believe in an anthropocentric world of wizards, goblins, and magic, but I do enjoy the tales of Middle-earth. I also like Star Wars, but while it might inspire me to work for ILM, it does not inspire my worldview or deeper thought about our potential. I don't believe we can acquire the Force or the use of magic. Middle-earth doesn't strive for the stars. I do believe in science, unity, cooperation, and our potential as a space-faring race.

Because faster-than-light travel, artificial gravity, and transporters are totally realistic things that could really happen, unlike goblins and wizards and magic.
Sarcasm is easy. Science, that's hard.
Vague psuedo-science is easy too.
