LOL! Are you talking about JJ and Team's approcah to Star Trek or our government's approach to NASA?
Loki kinda did the same thing in avengers*in regards to Benedict's character being in the brig*
I remember now! They said that the Dark Knight was a big influence on the film. In The Dark Knight, the Joker allows himself to get caught so he can have a one on one session with the good guys, and later escapes thanks to some clever scheming. I also seem to remember Skyfall saying that the Dark Knight was a big influence on the film, and they had the bad guy get captured, have a one on one session with the good guys and later escapes thanks to some clever scheming. Now we have Benedict's character in the brig, possibly allowing himself to be captured, having one on one time with the good guys and will no doubt escape thanks to some clever scheming.
Excellent commentary!
Do they not realize that the greatest appeal of Trek has always been the possible science of it? .
its obviously iron patriot!
Where exactly was the possible science in City on the Edge of Forever (arguably considered the best ST episode)...A giant wheel shaped rock, placed in the middle of newhere that had the ability to transport someone through time, had a pre-recorded instructional guide, along with visual stock footage of history.
there were plenty of Trek episodes that dipped into the realm of fantasy.
Listen to the commentary track for Star Trek (2009). You'll hear that quote A LOT.That's brilliant JJ.

I'm sorry, that'd require me to spend more money on JJ Abrams, and I can't do that in good conscience.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. - Arthur C Clark
exactly my point...Apparently TOS is allowed to use this rule of sci-fi, but Nu Trek must adhere to real science. :lol
