Harm and Foul
By TRexx

Quote from cdydatzigs:
Hmm.. well, I would be content with elder-Spock in his quarters looking longingly at a holophoto of Kirk, followed by a touching voiceover. No harm in that. :)


The "harm" is by attempting to create drama in ways that make a (supposedly) smart character appear uncommonly stupid. That kind of writer incompetence became ENT's signature formula, which rendered Archer and Tucker into Dumb and Dumber.

Elder Spock's love reportedly braves all risk in time-travel combat to save his soul brother, but then he neglects to offer a simple "Oh, by the way..." heads-up about Kirk's upcoming murder? Oops. Idiot.

Also, to reconcile Orci's remarks about a movie that has officially completed its principal film production, there needs to be an onscreen "hook" which informs the audience that the Kirk legend will again cheat death -- otherwise a bookend segue to an appearance by elder Kirk would be a disjoint to the main story.
