Roberto Orci Denies Details of AICN Negative Review, Again - Spoilers

Features

By GustavoLeao / 05:02, 7 January 2008 / Star Trek: Nemesis

Star Trek movie writer Roberto Orci popped onto the Don Murphy message board and completely and specifically denied that the details on AICN negative review were true.

He said:

"No area 51. That makes no sense. The Earth KNOWS there are aliens. What possible meaning could an area 51 have?"

"No Kirk as bad student. We all know he's a genius."

"No protesters with signs about anything."

"Yes, there's great action, but we've said that in other interviews."

The original report is here.

Quote from Reklaw:
That specific line was intended to motivate an understanding of why foreknowledge is a hurdle in writing suspense into drama.


You're unable grasp what's relevant here, so you're digging at a bogus argument.

Historical drama and pure fiction may both have foreknown outcomes, but they're two different writing challenges.

Star Trek occurs in a fictional future, in a reality where death can be a temporary inconvenience. In a pre-TOS setting, there aren't even barrels of canon to juggle.

Orci boasts of his incompetence at inventing dramatic fiction.
