"Space, the final frontier"

[Dale]

The website blurb about the story (which says nothing about the story, really) makes use of a variation of The Words... and they say "venturing boldly where no one has gone before."

JJ's greatest retcon: grammatical avoidance of "...to boldly go..."

Aren't the words inscribed on the dedication plaque of the Enterprise line? if this ship has one they could just pan by it with the camera, nice little close up or something.

didn't we already hear Nimoy saying it in the Teaser?

They would but I'm sure all the lights and such would make seeing anything on a reflective surface nigh on impossible

When Spock returns to the 24th Century and finds that his time traveling has prevented Old Kirk from dying, William Shatner will start to say it in the voiceover, and then Chris Pine will finish it. Cue credits.

We sure do have a lot of people posting from the 19th century where they think that splitting the infinite is a bad thing and banned by some form of rule...

 

[btflash]

abrams should at least throw shat a bone and have him recreate that dialog at the end of the movie.

I doubt Orci and Kurtzman know what an infinitive is, let alone what splitting it means. I'll be happy if Kirk can get through the monologue without the words "dude", "like", or "y'know".

I was going to say something about that too. I think it's only incorrect to split infinitives in Latin.

 

[Alpha_Geek]

Split infinitive, and beyond!

A Nimoy voice over at the end of the film would be a classic moment in the making.

I don't think Shatner would do it, but it would be kind of an interesting touch at the end of the film.

However as someone said "upthread", we've already heard Nimoy doing it in the first teaser trailer so if it's done in the movie, I assume it will be Nimoy.

Do you... actually watch the stuff these guys write? Alias...Fringe... nevermind...

Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if we got an altered version at the beginning.

"Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship...Kelvin. It's continuing mission..."

Wouldn't it be confusing to the audience to have the end voice over done by someone who's not in the film?

i thought the point of this movie was to confuse as many people as possible

I think you're right, and it won't happen for many reasons. It's just one of those little fanboy fantasy things that us old time TOS fans are prone to once in awhile.

But hearing Shatner do that one more time . . . . .

yeah i think your right. shatner probably fells " dissed" because hes not in the film anyway.

I'd chuckle to see a scene with Pine trying out different phrasings, while working on his first captain's log. A Googler better than I can find the first drafts rejected years ago.
