The film takes place well before the series, so it's possible that Spock and Uhura had a thing. I liked that bit in the movie.

I just saw the movie again, and I loved it even more. It was positively heart-warming, watching those iconic characters in their youth as they gradually
joined together as a crew and began working as a unit. I can't believe how such a nearly impossible task turned into such a perfect cast. I loved them
all, including Scotty's little friend!! I hope we see more of It.
This time, I had a lump in my throat in that final scene between Spock and Spock. I may be overstating but I thought it was classic. ("I will simply say, 'good luck.' ").!!! Good luck with the new series, guys, I am SO THERE!! Your Signature ... "Do the best job you can seeing the truth, and then do the best job you can telling the truth.

I don't understand what there is to NOT understand about all the time travel. I just watched the movie once and accepted it as it was presented, without
referring to the TV show or the other movies. Easy peasy japaneasy.

I really didn't think about the other movies as I was watching it, either; just appreciated on how well the new young cast nailed such well established
characters in their youth.
The time travel angle didn't bother me either. It was science fiction! Your Signature ... "Do the best job you can seeing the truth, and then do the best job you can telling the truth.

I've never seen Karl Urban in anything but LOTR and I didn't remember him at all from that series...he sort of blended in with the rest of them, you
know? So, for me, he was a fresh delight and just amazing as Bones. I can't say that, enough times, just because I was such an entrenched Trekker.
