Just for a moment, I forgot how adamant I am against TOS rehashes in the new timeline & thought you may be on to something. Just for a moment you had me thinking a modern-day version of the "Salt Vampire" story might work.
However, it would still only be a rehash of something done already, and I am against them in this timeline so I have to pass. Nice try though.![]()
Waitforit!! Instead of -salt- sucking, the alien sucks away Kirk's MOJO! And he has to fight his way through the rest of his movie without it! And then we find out the guy behind it all is actually Keenser, who has cloned himself... but sadly, he used too much material, so now has a taller version of himself who he calls Mega Me.
