Star Trek Generations alternative ending - Kirk and Spock reunited in the Nexus

[@ernestgamez9794]

58 years old, still wonder why Star trek generations ended the way it did. Kirk could have survived, met TNG Crew, and taken back to Earth for retirement and reunite With Spock.

[@mikehance6086]

And scotty was still alive

[@LongDuckDong2599]

I agree. I also remember in Star Trek 5, when Kirk told Spock and McCoy, “I’ve always known I’ll die alone.” I don’t know why they were so hell-bent on killing Kirk off. And the way they killed him off was so lackluster. The legendary James Kirk deserved better. There are so many ways they could have had Kirk survive. William Shatner is a really good author, and in fact, wrote a Star Trek novel, which takes place immediately after the events of the generations movie. The book is called Star Trek the return. If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend it. I think this would have been a great movie. I don’t want to spoil it for you if you haven’t read it. But if you do decide to read it, I really think you will enjoy it.

​@@TheIntimidat3r- what???? I wonder why

[@mdurwin]

@@TheIntimidat3r Maybe you want to know why he didn't attend? Shatner had been booked for a year for a fundraising event. Backing out would have collapsed the fundraiser as he was the main attraction for the Red Cross. Nimoy's family couldn't move the date of the funeral because he was jewish. Shatner was on the other side of the country in Florida for the fundraiser and simply couldn't get back to it. Other LA celebrities were easily able to attend because they were in LA already. Shatner felt, and thought Nimoy would agree, that the good of the many outweighs the needs of the one. Nimoy's family agree and have backed up Shatner on this in the press. So, what makes Shatner a jerk, being selfless?

[@kellyjeaularson5786]

This scene should have been in the movie. I thought of how empty Kirks' death was. It had been proven that Spock and Scotty were still alive. So, this emotional scene would have added so much. Writers, directors, and producers just don't know how to create emotional stories it would seem.

The lowest, worst moment in the Star Trek canon is Kirk’s death-the manner of it, not the death itself. For a living legend who had seen so many adventures, so many near death experiences, and defeated so many enemies, to be killed as he was- it was just wrong in every way. Even Malcolm McDowell said that he did not agree with it in any way, that a legend such as Kirk, a mythic figure, should die in a blaze of glory. And there should have been a bit more in the scenes between the captains. Such a disappointment in so many ways, but Kirk’s death was just so deflating. Even Stewart looks like he knows the scene is wrong. By the way, why would you bury him in rock? And how did he even do it? Lazy writing all around- these characters deserved far better Spock visiting his long thought dead friend’s grave? THAT is worthy of these characters. Not a word said- nor did there need to be. And it brings tears to my eyes

[@VolkXue]

pretty much everyone involved said it was a bad script.

[@j.a.stafford1617]

Come to my universe. Nothing after STIV is canon! ;)

[@skiptoloo9506]

Naw, they couldn't leave his body there for the same reason they couldn't leave the saucer section there: eventually the humanoids of the populated planet would get there, and wonder "WTF???"

[@VolkXue]

@@skiptoloo9506 he would be dust by then lol

[@aldunlop4622]

Disagree. To be killed on a desolate world far from his friends is very powerful. What do you want, some childish comic-book ending? He died a hero, saving the day as usual, just as he would've liked. His body would've been taken back to Earth for a massive funeral where his life was celebrated. People die, it sucks and we have to deal with it. My brother died suddenly of a heart attack at 54. It was such a waste, and very powerful to me.

Started watching Trek at 4 1/2 years old. Star Trek's friendship and loyalty are eternal.

[@SinjinTaidjeKhan]

This is how the movie should have ended. Nicely done, Maestro! 💯🖖👏

[@richardhussey-cq2se]

I think too Sarek. Jim Kirk was closest thing he had too another son. They mind melded in The Search For Spock(1984) after Spocks death at the end of The Wrath Of Khan(1982)

[@shootingthebreeze4432]

This would’ve been about a million times better of an ending. Generations is by far my least favorite Star Trek film. Soran was a weak villain, Kirk’s death and the destruction of Enterprise D were completely unnecessary and not given proper reverence in my opinion.

[@stephendevore9926]

Awesome. Great Visuals 😊

[@Chloe1sylvester1234]

I love this ending it shame Generations didnt end like this.

[@yellowstone024]

This is the After Credit scene Generations did not have and one we did not know we needed … RIP Leonard Nimoy

[@veronicadepasquale9741]

Love them both❤😢

[@pit_viper327]

Captain, not in front of the Klingons.

[@Jerry74]

I would have made it a post-credit scene. A little trbute to lne of the greatest friendships in sci-fi history.

[@desa415]

That would have been great!

[@Lightrunner.]

When i saw the pictures a warm feeling flow through my heart. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 We see us all behind the horizon.🖖

[@hydrorix1]

Leonard Nimoy WAS Spock. He was perfect!

"I've always known, I'll die alone"

[@AFVeteran1]

They should never have killed off Kirk, that was just dumb. He should have went back to earth and retired. Also this movie the had the Star Trek Timeline screw up where Scotty was in the Next Generation episode Relics where he said, 'I bet Jim Kirk pulled the old girl out of mothballs just to come looking for me'. But since Scotty was there when Kirk died in this movie when the string hit the Enterprise B he never would have made the statement that Kirk was still alive and had coming to look for him. I know it is just a movie and TV show but we would hope the writers would get this right.

[@AFVeteran1]

@nikkidzaka8073 hahaha. No doubt.

[@burtonwilliams5355]

JH EDITS, thank you.

[@josephgallo3241]

William Shatner’s book The Return would have made a great movie. I would have ended Star Trek VI with the Enterprise doing time warp around the sun. Just before the credits roll, you see the Enterprise from TOS coming around the sun!

[@Isaacisaperson4677]

No 6s ended perfectly

[@1-7-0-1]

Absolutely Fantastic Presentation My Brother 🎤

[@tuorofgondolin8235]

You know, piling all of those rocks takes a lot of work, and Picard doesn't look tired at all. :P

[@VictoriaRamos-lj2ee]

Well, there is a book out there that takes place right after Spock visit the grave. I forget its title but as he takes the pin there is a familiar Humm. he turns around and seen the rocks which housed the body fall. Its later found out his body were taken by the Borg. Of course, it's a book William Shatner wrote so you know how this is going to go.

[@traceypuerner7876]

I love this. Great ending.

[@vincentparlante6274]

Thee entire history of Genes work of Star Trek is a real personal favorite through the many years from the birth of the original through TNG and all the movies in their series. The filming scenes and everything has made me look into the heavens and space for many years thinking? Could we ever be able to live like that and how truly interesting things might be communicating with life of different planets. But then the cold really hits and we all realize ? We can't even agree to work together on earth here . Just look at the current conflicts ongoing. Gene had a great vision .

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

Man Star Trek Generations was not one of my favorite Star Trek films for 2 different reasons one seeing the destruction of the Enterprise D and second seeing the death of the legendary starship Captain James T. Kirk dieing like that for making a difference again I really really hated that and I'm pretty sure a lot of Star Trek fans did too and I'll bet there wasn't a single dry eye in the theatres when people saw that part of Kirk's passing.

[@aldunlop4622]

So you just want childish comic book adventures where nobody dies? Kid's stuff.
