Corrected entry: Upon hearing that Vulcan is going to be destroyed within minutes Spock goes into the turbo lift to take him to the transporter. Within seconds Nero orders the space drill up to his ship where Sulu falls off the device and Kirk has to sky dive to rescue him. Chekov, who is aware of a way of beaming these two to the Enterprise races out of the bridge, opposite to the turbo lift, down the corridor to the transporter room. Where he then beams both Sulu and Kirk aboard the ship. Spock then enters the room to be beamed down to Vulcan. Why did Spock go in the turbo lift to the transporter, when it was on the same deck as the bridge, since he had only seconds to save his family? (00:57:15 - 00:58:25)

Corrected entry: If Nero changed the future of the original Star Trek universe when he attacked, and the subsequent destruction of the USS Kelvin, how could Spock appear in the same universe 25 years later? Both the Narada and the Jellyfish were sucked back into the past. However, the Narada was taken back in time first. Any changes made would make a new "alternate reality" that would have been separate from Spock's when he appeared, as they both left the same future around the same time. Spock's ship would have appeared without a Narada being in existence. (00:01:00 - 00:25:00)
Correction: As time travel doesn't actually exist, there are no definitive rules that state precisely how any film that involves time travel must proceed. Spock's ship and the Narada fell into the same wormhole, therefore it hardly seems unreasonable that they would reappear in the same reality, regardless of opinions that it should be otherwise.

Correction: When Spock leaves the bridge, he's empty-handed. When he arrives in the transporter room, he's carrying a full equipment belt with a phaser, communicator and so forth. He took the turbolift to go and get the belt before beaming down.
