Mirror Mirror Universe
Speaking of the Mirror Universe, it’s another concept that could be ripe for further exploration. While we’ve seen it used several times over the years, there’s still plenty of potential in playing around with Star Trek‘s “darkest timeline.” In fact, given that the new movies are themselves unfolding in a tangential alternate timeline, so the Mirror universe could have a whole new layer of resonance. They’ve already played with it in the tie-in comics, but that wouldn’t prevent them from ignoring that if they had a good idea for a movie. Hell, if you really wanted to blow away the fanboys, why not pit the new Enterprise crew against the Original Series’ Mirror Universe doubles? It would be tricky, but imagine Kirk 2.0 and the rest confronting not only dark versions of themselves, but dark versions of their original selves, from the original timeline. In the pipe dream in my head, we’d see Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, and the rest facing off against Shatner and Nimoy at their most mustache-twirling. A long-shot , but if it was done right, but I’d sure as hell pay for that ticket.
