It's a canonical AU. That's why you have Spock Prime (Nimoy) and Quinto's Spock in the same film. One is in from the original time line (60s series+movies) and one is from this new timeline that gets created in this film. Events happen VERY differently for this cast than the TOS cast. While I don't ZOMG LOVE!!!!!! New Trek, I enjoyed it. And I enjoyed it BECAUSE they established it was an AU. I can ignore it completely and it doesn't touch or rewrite my TOS cast at all.

This is random, but there's like, an episode of Red Dwarf (popular 80s BBC scifi comedy if you're not familiar) where the main character, Lister, has an experience where he is wiped out. Another Lister is in his place--basically the #2 sperm in the load. I kind of weirdly view the whole New Trek cast like that. They're the same characters, but they're "Sperm's (or eggs) in law" as Lister called him. That's why they look similar, but not the same, but have the same names. XD HEY IT WORKS FOR ME. Maybe it'll work for someone else.

I think it's worth watching. It's got some crap, but it's mindlessly entertaining. And if it leaves a bad taste in your mouth, well, you can always turn it off and rewatch Spock's Brain. :D
