Nero causes the time paradox that Spock must deal with.

First off, Shatner’s novels that deal with Kirk being revived after his death in Generations is a simple (and stupid) plot device that Shatner needed to continue his writing career with that character. Nothing more.

Dingo, predicting the time travel angle was not something cutting edge that I hoped they would use. It was a prediction and suggestion on just how they could use something already present and plausible in the Star Trek canon to achieve their goals to reboot the series without completely ignoring canon. And it appears they are going to do it almost exactly how I suggested it.

Shadow, First Contact was not the first or only movie or episode to deal with time travel. They do it a plenty throughout the series and spinoffs. I also don’t see anywhere that suggests Spock will return to save Kirk. It would seem that the time paradox that changes history will be a butterfly effect that happens after Spock travels to change something.

Spock could go back, change some things in the past and greeted by older Kirk when he returns to an altered timeline in which Kirk didn’t get killed.

I can allmost guarantee that Spock won’t be going back in time to save young Kirk.

It will be something bigger than that.

This plotline isn’t really anything more than a new twist on First Contact.

dude, obi-wan dying in the prequels and coming back as a clone is an awesome idea, too bad it didn’t happen like that.

No offense, but predicting that a Star Trek movie is going to have a time travel plot is about as impressive as predicting that the newest Will Ferrel movie is going to have a a bunch of fart jokes.

Yeah, but if you read the books, especially those written by Shatner ( I know they might or might not be canon), Kirk was revived after Generations and still goes on adventures throughout 2 universes

Slushie… the point is that I suggested it 14 months ago.

“So if my prediction is right, its going to be Spock flying solo to go mess up time and give us a whole new Star Trek Universe.”

Um, that plot’s already been confirmed by Nimoy himself, recently.
