103: So you believe that two ships which positively look different (just look at them) look the same? And you think Shatner’s opinion makes a difference whether two ships we can look at ourselves are the same? (By the way he didn’t say they look the same.)

I love him. He is, and always will be, The Man! The fact that we were both born on 22 March has always made me happy! ;-))

Never been a Shatner fan but I’ve just gained some newfound respect for the man. He actually took the time to reassure the demented, basement dwelling fan-boys that the new Enterprise looks just like the old one so, it should work too.

And he did this with patience and respect !! Not sure how he maintained a straight face while dealing with this type of nonsense and absurdity of the fan-boys. But he did manage to keep a straight face so my impression of his acting skills just rose. Classy thing for Shatner to do.

I love the month of Shatcember. It’s my favorite time of year. Looking forward to Shatner’s Raw Nerve. Have you every seen “Judge Shatner?”

Based on things I’m seeing, I’m suspecting that the timeline change happened much earlier than we think it did, years earlier, altering not just the character’s history, but the technology development as well.

Which means it created a parallel universe.

There is no reason to try to blend old and new by this rationale. It means that when Nero goes back and alters history, he’s creating a new quantum reality. TOS stands as is, TAU (The Abram’s Universe) is a new entity, and what we knew is changed, just like “Yesterday’s Enterprise” was an altered reality for Star Trek: The Next Generation. Between that and “Parallels” there’s still no reason we can’t have our cake and eat it too.

And William Shatner is no fool to trash the new show, not when in an altered reality his Kirk could return to the big screen, and I do not blame him one bit.
