As we anticipate the DVD and BluRay release of Star Trek next month, Spike TV snuck out one of the deleted scenes.
below is a deleted scene, via Spike, from the movie showing us a masked ruffle-headed Klingon interrogating Nero played by Eric Bana, trying to get information from him about the future. Nero fights back, lets his right hand man go and says ‘The wait is over’ the line said in the trailer but was missing from the theatrical cut.
I really wish this was in the film, as I found Nero a little lacking as a superior force. Seeing something like this could have helped enforce his character as a powerful leader. I kind of felt Nero was wasted in the film while we spent too much time re-aquainting ourselves with the heroes. It does introduce the Centaurian Slug which Nero uses on Pike later. Obviously an homage to the Ceti eel.
In spite of all that I loved the film, but I didn’t love Nero. Just liked. He said he would call for a second date, but I don`t see it happening.
