      another problem with Burnham is that she is so famous that when Kirk first met Spock, Kirk would remember he was Burnham's sister, and that she was adopted, and Spock's parentage (everyone would know) remember, Burnham not only mutinied, she also started the Klingon War

      Prequels always have this problem that the natural desire to make your story matter so people care is inherently at war with the desire to avoid plot holes and respect the canon

          Like on one level the ending of Inglorious Basterds is just a joke about this

          Yeah, and apparently Once Upon a Time in Hollywood as well from what I've heard.

          as I pointed out in a different tweet up the thread, that is something that Star Trek screwed up in both prequel series

          At least for ENT it would have been something pretty easy to fix given one of the central premises was the temporal cold war.

          And honestly, if they had the courage of their convictions and they just straight-up changed the continuity on purpose instead of giving lip service to preserving it while poking holes in it, I'd at least respect them. Reimaginings and retcons aren't inherently bad.

          Replying to @autogynamelia @arthur_affect and

          My main gripes with Discovery aren't about continuity, but about how it claims to champion causes dear to me (multiculturalism, media representation, etc.) and then undermines itself (no Star Trek show should ever present shooting first as the right thing to do!).
