"Star Trek" is a Sequel, Prequel and Reboot


From worstpreviews, "Star Trek" writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman appeared on Fox Movie Channel's "Life After Film School," giving some cryptic information that CHUD has apparently cracked.

Orci and Kurtzman mentioned that the film is not exactly a sequel, prequel or reboot. So why are the filmmakers hiring a cast that will play the younger version of the "Star Trek" characters? Here is what the site believes the plot will be:

"The movie begins in the 'Star Trek' present - some time in the 'The Next Generation' timeline. Romulans head back in time, either to kill Kirk or his father and Spock follows them into the past, back when the Enterprise crew were young. These events change the history of the Trek universe, either creating a parallel timeline that the films will now follow or simply overwriting everything else that we know as 'Trek' history."

If this is true, it would explain how this film is not a sequel, prequel or reboot. It's all of those combined.
