Actually Uhura clearly states that it was a distress signal sent during a prison escape from a Klingon prison planet. So the event of Nero being in a klingon prison is still mentioned in the film, it just doesnt go into detail.

Heard of the deleted scene where Nero was captured but missed the reference to it being a prison planet where the Klingon fleet was destroyed. Makes more sense now, I always wondered why Nero would attack the Klingons.

Supposedly the missing scenes started after the kelvin smashed into the Narada. After the shuttles escape the incapacitated Narada is shown listing in space, all of a sudden dozens of Klingon warbirds decloak surrounding the Narada.
I cannot wait till Klingon ships will be called Cruisers or warships.

They'll probably be called by the overused and misunderstood term battlecruiser which was nothing more than an upgunned cruiser and a military failure.
Fans of the Abrams Enterprise can look forward to this "1:500 scale" model kit coming in May from Revell Germany. 35 Euro. Not clear how big it is yet (it seems like it would have to be 2-1/2 feet long at the smallest, to be 1:500 scale, but who knows...)

Wow, from that angle that model actually looks almost cool and makes me almost want to get it.

Only took 3.5 years to find an angle that ship looks decent from :lol

The secret is the motion blurring makes the secondary hull look like something's actually there as opposed to the anorexic runway model with 52EE Implants we saw on screen. There are some aspects of the new ship I like but she needs work. I wish they had gone with Gabe's design instead:

Compare that to the fact there are virtually NO bad angles to Matt Jeffries design, the lines, shapes and proportions just flow beautifully.

So what did the Klingon's do just park the Narada near Rura Penthe for 25 years while Nero and his crew were imprisoned? Good thing they didn't try to dismantle it to study it or turn it into scrap.

Mix Tal Shiar booby traps with Borg Tech. I bet some of the processing systems in the Narada when she faced the Enterprise were assimilated Klingons.
Hmm.
ORIGINAL RURA PENTHE
NEW RURA PENTHE
Which looks more like...
ORIGINAL DELTA VEGA
Which was than turned into
Why do I get the feeling that if the writers and designers of Trek09 were asked to do Star Wars that they'd turn Tattooine into a forest planet and the Endor Moon into a desert planet? If they were assassins tasked with shooting Kennedy, they'd hit Lincoln.
Oh, Qo'noS. I weep for the future.

And JJ's attitude seems to be "Hey, we used a name from TOS! It's an Easter Egg!! Why aren't you people happy?!!!"

Sad news that. At least he died happy. Rest In Peace, Fellow Trekker.
