The story "played" brilliantly with the factor "what if" interchanging roles of Kirk and Spock in the climax of the story that I think it's the very beauty of watching/reading a parallel universe.īeing able to know an alternate approach.

Humility and self-honesty are the best ways to achieve greatness.ĪLTERNATE TAKES, THE WHOLE POINT OF PARALLEL UNIVERSES There isn't anything better to appreciate the greatness of a character when he/she admits without reservations his/her limitations and/or weaknesses. he tells to Spock that he isn't still prepared to "the big chair" and that. HOWEVER, while he still was quite young, on this sequel, there is a moment where this Jim Kirk, of this parallel universe, he admits that very fact. One thing that bothered me a lot in the previous film was that Jim Kirk was too young to be a captain of a starship. in a moment where the Federation hadn't any reason or eagerness to negotiate any peace treaty and/or to help them in any way. The Klingon Empire suffered a heavy loss in its battle fleet, so they needed to mine a lot faster to Praxis, one of its moons and key facility of dilithium, generating its explotion way before than in the original universe.

The Federation accelerated its exploration program generating to "find" several advanced technologies and alien species way before than in the original universe. The ship of Nero was from the future (even a future ahead of where the expanded universe prose books are nowadays) and it was a vessel so powerful that scared to all the major powers in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, and this very fact provoked a cascade of events that you can appreciate in this sequel. In the previous film, the arrival of the ship of the villain Nero gave birth to a new parallel universe. Taking the non-travelled paths and/or presenting amusing alternate situations.Įverything that you love in a parallel universe based on an already known established fiction franchise. Star Trek into Darkness proved that the new parallel universe had real potential to show an interesting alternate history of Star Trek taking in account with careful notice to details of how the things happened in the original universe. Since it's the novelization of a really good film! So still you win at reading it! I wanted to read the novelization to check if I can get some new details or deeper insight about the story. When I watched this film, all my still reservations about this new parallel universe were solved and I totally was able to embrace this concept as another bold addition to the franchise.
