Any proof of your claim?

What a great trek episode. For me, what trek is all about is stories like that one. I still remember the feeling it gave me as Sargon and his wife choose to go to Oblivion together. The thought that love, and the respect for life, can make you that brave was a big thought for a little seven year old's brain. It made me a better person, and that is the best that you can ask a story to do.

When I saw the trailer and I heard Pike say this...

"...your father was the Captain of a starship for 12 minutes, He saved 800 lives. I dare you to do better..."

...I knew that this film might have a chance to be worth the price of admission. I hope I am not wrong.

I don't think you'll be wrong. I have to believe it's going to be a good story and movie---Nimoy wouldn't have come back otherwise.

I would think so but in these matters nothing is impossible.

Way to be positive, man. lol

You know this could work. Pike is injured on the E while trying to get the warp reactor running during the heat of battle. He gets radiation burns and McCoy sticks him on life support until the movie ends.

Actually pike has been to talos before the life support with spock... so other than that minor sticking point (which is small) I see no reason why this movies story can't mesh into the storyline we already know from TOS (and I'm not sayin that the enterprise has to look the same, have some imagination.)
