It is a good reminder, though post #158 did mention this back on Sunday I thought that the comments on how good a job the new Kirk and Spock did were a highlight.
While I think it would be an interesting TV episode to see old Spock pumped for information (if they were going to a TV series, they'd have to deal with it), I hope they just keep him busy helping the Vulcan population and don't go that route in another movie.
One possible minor nit (or my misunderstanding) about the film that occurred to me. Pike says it will take Kirk four years to get through the academy and Kirk says he'll do it in three. We then see three years later that it looks like he has done it, but it isn't really anything special as it...
I just hope that in the sequel no one kidnaps the elder Spock to try to learn about events in the future. Meanwhile, folk might want to see the bit in SNL's Weekend Update last night about the film Saturday Night Live - Update Feature: Star Trek - Video - NBC.com
