Star Trek Rumour

Alrighty, time to make you cringe or cheer or go eh.
So the dude who plays Sylar on Heroes is playing Spock which lends itself to the on going theory that the next trek is a prequel, reimagining, thingymagig.

But Leonard Nimoy is also playing Spock in the film.

How can this be?

Well according to rumour (which I've heard from two different websites, a television show and a source of my own) the plot of the new JJ Abrams lead star trek film involves everyone's favorite continuity strangler,

TIME TRAVEL

The supposed plot is that a group of Romulans figure out how to travel through time (apparently the missed The Voyage home, once again proving how Kirk can kick an aliens ass in anything). The Romulans figure that if they go back in time, get rid of Kirk, the Romulan empire will be awesome and the galaxy will be liberated from Federation crapacity.
Now after those main points there's a lot of conjecture. Some theories point to this being a splitting in the time line so Abrams can do new and different things with same ideas without effecting continuity (hopefully Abrams will remake Star Trek 5 and have it not be a turd of a movie). Others say that this will be a time travel movie where Spock saves the universe and everything stays exactly the same.

Someone has also mentioned that Russel Crow might be the head Romulan, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Now before you say Time travel sucks (and if we were talking the X-Men I would whole heartedly agree with you), just remember the third and forth best films out of the series (being 4 and First Contact respectively) involve heavy doses of time travel....that sounds worse then I meant it.
