Oh. Well, then. I don't object to that. In fact, though not to the same degree, I believe I agree.

And by the by, even if people get confused and think that Nero is an "evil Vulcan", does that undermine any part of the plot, particularly? How much time does 11 spend on the Vulcan culture itself, particularly?

And
that... is actually a pretty good point. Anyone who knows anything about
Star Trek will be able to tell the difference between Vulcans and Romulans, and anyone who
doesn't know enough about
Star Trek to know
that isn't going to know enough about Vulcans to see a problem there. And, even if they did, they could always just chalk it up to this movie's outrageously bad plotting.

Vulcan's aren't allowed to be evil? Does nobody remember T'Pring?

Or Stonn? Or V'Las? Or Tolaris? Or Valeris? Another valid point -- though I'm not sure it's all that relevant to the thought process Abrams & Co. had.
Hunh. And here I'd resigned myself to permanently disagreeing with you.
