Because I was talking about the specific universe we've seen in ALL the previous Trek shows. This one is using a new universe that already seems quite different, I mean they blew up Vulcan ffs.
Where are we right now??

Okay what if they blew up Vulcan during the Dominion War in DS9? Would that now be a new universe?
It's pure art.
Please explain why the use of an alternate timeline in NuTrek is any different than the multiple alternate timeline stories in other Trek.
Can we please stop comparing Star Trek to "Planet of the Apes". I just sat through part of "Escape from the Planet of the Apes" and "Conquest of the Planet of the Apes" on the crappy movie channel. On St Patrick's Day, with no beer and I'm Irish and Texan. Oh, the Horror.
Don't look at me. Men dressed as apes, now who in the world would want to watch that?
Furries.
...Um, what? How is the difference not obvious?
Explain? Sure it's easy, previously we weren't "threaten" with being stuck in the alternate timeline.
Now we are.
Thanks, T'Girl.
I guess you're not a big fan of the new movie either then.
I can see the being stuck thing bothering people. But personnally I don't think the alternate NuTrek timeline threatens the rest of Trek Lore. I believe these different universes/timelines are all set in the same Trek multiverse.
Its not about it "threatening" Trek lore, its about the fact that its not the Trek I want to see take over. I want to see the Trek franchise that we know and love CONTINUE, what we're getting is an almost completely new reinvention with hugely different visuals and approach.
We're trying to have a serious discussion here, you know?
Prime Trek was a dead corpse long before NuTrek.

NO it wasn't, we could have had DS9 movies!! And 23 more seasons of TNG!!
Anyway. I'll bring the cheering libations. This wake is long overdue.
Could it be - and this is a very radical suggestion - could it be that the problem is that 'Nu Kirk' is a very dominant alpha male that women the world over want to have sex with, and you are not?
I don't want to have sex with him. What I want, and I want this very badly is for him to have sex with NuSpock.
Well excuse me for actually liking "Prime Trek" and feeling that wasting 28 seasons of material by basically throwing it and the garbage and ignoring it for the rest of Trek's days is kind of...a waste.
So, no libations for you?
Watch out, JJ Abrams is gonna sneak into your house and do just that to your Trek DVDs!
Why are you so cool King Daniel? Why, why??
"Spock looked up at him. It was difficult to tell but it was possible he was pleased."
