    The 2009 movie. Just, like, the whole thing.

    (And I’m not even talking about differences between the JJ-verse and the “prime” timeline; I’m talking about shit not making any damn sense in the internal context of the plot. Kirk was a mutinous fuck-up cadet who should’ve been thrown out the airlock when Spock had the chance, not promoted straight from cadet to captain by the end of the movie!)

      This would be the same continuity in which magic villain blood is found to be the cure for actual death, and they use it once and then never speak of it again.

      maybe its closer to the mmo universe where everyone goes from just graduating the academy as a ensign to being made leuitenant but given a command as part of it.

      This could be argued to be a thing related to the split from the original timeline, but the Kelvin version of Chekov is born four years earlier than his original timeline counterpart.
