Regardless of what we mere fans think, nothing can change the ending. Of a movie already part of Trek history.
Even if we wish really, really hard If Bill cant do anything to change the ending, how can we.

Daisy | Well Paramount have already messed with Trek "history" alot . The whole of "Enterprise" is the prime example. No mention of Captain Archer, or Enterprise NX1 being "the first," in any previous Star Trek series or movies, prior to a quick blink and you miss it reference in Star Trek Nemesis .So if they are going to change reality/time lines, then why not do it right ,to "fix" something it seems now that certain people, involved in Generations admit was a mistake. As i have already said it could be an "alternate time line/reality" so strictly not part of the Trek history we know.Perhaps even involve Q in the story, and we find out it was another of his "trials of humanity" and another of his tests for Picard, and Kirk did survive ?
Or perhaps,If there is a sequil to this new movie,that is going to follow on, then why couldn't a "Kirk survived Generations" story be worked in?
to quote a phrase " There are always possibilities"  |

I agree this story line could be. But not in the Generations Movie .(that has gone)
It would have to be in a completly different movie as a follow up. Say Star Trek XI.
Goodnight my friends I hope thanksgiving was a peaceful day

Part I is probably the best Generations alternate ending based solely on Generations footage. Part II is dumb, since the Enterprise-E was not developed by Paramount until First Contact. I also felt the best ending would have been Kirk and Soran fighting, and Soran falls and dies, while Kirk falls or is the one swept back up in the Nexus. He then re-emerges on the Enterprise-B, to Scotty's surprise.
I really do feel that Shatner's appearance could be written in quite easily. In a very similar aspect as Generations, old Spock may get into a situation where the only way out, to save the Federation or whatever, is it channel Kirk, old Kirk that is. To do so, he changes the timeline. Boom, Shatner appears and helps to save the day, and he and Spock return happily to some point in the future. You don't need to stick Shatner where he wasn't written in the first place, all you have to do is maybe write a different ending where the ends are the same but the means change. |

| I think Mr. Nimoy needs to be reminded that the lure of the dollar ressurected Spock. Why can't the devotion of the fans do the same for Kirk? |
