Thinking past Ronald D. Moore's comments and onto Abrams's upcoming movie...

I still believe William Shatner was offered a cameo; felt it violated his status as an actor/personality. (And he misunderstood the importance of the story's focus on elder Spock/younger crew.)

With a more humble Shatner going back to the negotiating table, I'm believing that Orci & Kurtzman DO have a plan to get him into the movie. (Although Mr. Abrams and fellow cohorts may feel mixed on that topic.)

There's a brilliant, unintentional smoke screen created by Shatner's statements. He's spoken about the subject to death; he can dismiss more comments from future interviews.

Then, May 2009, maybe we'll see James T. Kirk (the original), in the final moments of the movie.

One can only hope.

I really feel Shatner should return. Not in a huge role, but to uplift the mythos to a new level. I don't need to see/know how Kirk would eventually die again. Just the idea that he and Spock are legendary figures makes you forget their mortality. They are timeless.

And we need to see Kirk alive to be reminded that the future is open-ended, with incredible possibilities for these characters.

Then again, maybe this is the end for elder Spock. And it's his closure that would compound Kirk's return.

(Anyways, DAMN YOU BRAGA AND MOORE for a lousy script on Generations. It had so much more potential than was ever realized.)
