Alternate ending 1 is cool, I guess. Read the above for alternate ending 2

To those who believe in Rule #1701, Kirk would have the upper hand in the new Star Trek movie, sorry Picard fans. The new enterprise is much larger than the depicted in this episode. The scale of the NCC-1701-A is 900 feet. The NCC-1701-D is 1927.5 feet, even the NCC-1701-E is 2,057.1 feet, and the NCC-1701 (JJ-prise) is 2500 feet, plus upgrades to the weapons compared to the prime universe. In short, I’m afraid you (or he/she who created this video) are mistaken, and 1701-D would be PWNED!!!

It’s not a boom mike. It’s a [tech tech tech] that just LOOKS like a boom mike.

This is Trek, after all.

BLOOPER! In the second video, during the “Yesterday’s Enterprise” scene, you can see the boom mike at the top of the set! Around the 53 second mark.

Never noticed that before….

Too funny! But if it weren’t for reboots than Star Trek would have not gotten attention again.

Of course it’s reasonable to assume that generally later technology will be better than earlier technology, even for entirely fictional tech.
But the point remains that we can’t really determine *how much* more powerful 24th century weapons should be compared to 23rd century weapons, how significantly they evolve ober 100 years. And therefore, writers are entitled to make up these advancements whichever way they like. And in particular up-mashing YouTubers who are not even committed to Trek canon. But I don’t think this means that everybody’s right in this debate. It means the author is right by default in such matters.

93, 94: Think that for some of us it might simply be fun to nitpick or to scrutinize mash-ups created for fun. Anyway, for me it is fun.
