I havent had a chance to see it yet, but now I am very concerned.

I have been a Star Trek fan since I was youngin (since the 70s)

The idea of changing something that the series/movies has made it a big point to adhere to (ie the timeline) is quite distressing.

Sure it brings up new options... but it also unvalidates the entire Star Trek franchise already in place which made it what it is today.

Im sure the movie is great, but if they changed the timeline... IMO they screwed up.

Not really - because, in essence, they could have the same thing happen repeatedly and invent different POSSIBILITIES of what could happen. I mean, as per butterfly effect, any one thing can change everything. Right?

I mean, someone could basically come back and change things back to normal, yet again... LOL Over and over, indefinitely. (Anyone see that Family Guy episode where Peter keeps needing do-overs?? LOL Thats my point!)

Seems like an interesting concept - I keep hearing wonderful things about it.
