   I wonder if it is a bit convenient for writers to not have to stick to   
   the old story line.   It's like they said, lets find a way to have all   
   kinds of different stories and not be constrained by the previous   
   stories.   
     I think you can still do lots of stuff for new movies.  You just have   
   to do more work to meld it in with the original series.   Enterprize did   
   quite a good job at that.   It is just lazyness on there part it seems.   
   Either that or a desparate attemt at milking more from the franchise.   
     They better be carefull though.  They may be shooting themselves in   
   the foot.   
     Personaly, I think it would be cool for Dr. Who to show up and fix the   
   timeline.  Although strictly speaking,  since Spock met himself I don't   
   think the new timeline would stand up anyway.  You can't tell me the   
   young Spock won't try to fix it and save Vulcan and his mom.   
   I think  it should have collapsed at the end of the movie.   Maybe with   
   the old spock watching himself from a distance.   
         mes.
