Shatner's Role In "Star Trek 2008" leaked

Is there some new warning we can invent for people who run into a joke thread and try to spoil it for everyone as fast as they can?

I'd be interested in voting for something like that.

I mean, socially shunning them is always an option, but I think we need something a little more severe.

"Cock-Blockers?" Isn't that the movie Jonathan Frakes directed a couple of years ago?

No, that was titled Insurrection. Same basic idea, though.
 
My sources confirm that this rumor is true. Shatner has already signed a contract. He did have some issues with the script, so some illegal rewriting of the script is going on at this moment.

Basically, the "Romulans kill Kirk" storyline is disinformation. What actually happens is this: the Romulans do assassinate someone in the past, but it's Christopher Pike. This necessitates Spock contacting himself at an early point in his own career and convincing him somehow to take drastic and possibly mutinous action in order to keep Pike out of a certain (undisclosed) situation at the film's climax.

The SHOCKER is that Spock first realizes that something's gone wrong with time when he encounters his old friend James Kirk - alive nearly a century after he died on the Enterprise B.

So basically Spock has to make the heartwrenching decision to restore history knowing that in order to put things right, Kirk must die.

Neat idea.

One MAJOR flaw.

Why wouldn't Spock save Pike and Kirk? It would only be logical for him to do so.

Because it's actually a time-traveling Captain Kirk who assassinates Chris Pike, so his younger self can assume command. It's brilliant! The question becomes...who is it in the wheelchair during "The Menagerie?????"

*ominous music*












(I know the answer! :D ;) )

Everything falls into place once you know this, though. Shatner's part is small - a single scene - yet absolutely pivotal to the main plot. To know it is to know the climax and the dramatic crux of the film (sorry) so of course they've done everything they can to misdirect.

It gives Kirk's character the "meaningful" death his fans have been demanding. The existence of the whole Star Trek Universe turns on it.

Spock is able to go through with his mission only by remembering Kirk's own sacrifice of Edith Keeler as an inspiration and example.

Again, I notice that our board's two project insiders remain silent on this revelation.

I already told you he was in the film weeks ago.

And there you have it - STARTREK11 has confirmed my plot leak in its entirety!

Who could doubt it now?

Remember this, folks, when you're watching the thrilling climactic sequence where Spock is frantically spinning those vectoring nacelles on the Enterprise in an attempt to move in close enough to the Nexus to snatch Pike from the jaws of Whoopi Goldberg!

I already told you he was in the film weeks ago,but you would not believe me.I told you that Abrams would make 2 films back to back and one would have Shatner and one would not,double the profit as fans would spend money to see both versions.
Just like you did not believe the rotating nacelles and the script portion I passed on to you and which I never had a chance to further elaborate as the moderator closed the thread after being pressured by someone,thus denying free flow of information and open discussion.This is how freedom is suppressed.It starts with a single action.I feel very upset and feel very morose and depressed now.

:wtf:

So this radiation stuff was just a cover story, 'Meangerie' Pike was really suffering from being bled by Whoopi's fangs. Nice to know.

and how could we possibly have doubted such a plausible story?

Actually I think they were pressured by the shear idiocy of it.
 
Why would the Romulans want to assassinate Captain Pike? What would they accomplish by doing this? Pike doesn't seem like that important a figure in Federation History. They might as well try to assassinate Kirk since without Kirk to save the Fedeartion's ass all those times, the Fedeartion would have been defeated pretty easily.
