Star Trek: Boldly Squeeing In Space

[coffeestudies]

Happy Birthday, thefabone!


So. Star Trek. I liked it. I liked it whole bunch. In fact, I got sucked right into it. Which might also be due to the fact that we sat only a half-assed popcorn shot away from the screen. But oh.

I won't go into details because I'm sure no one wants to hear me squeeing for half a dozen pages which my attempt at finding the right words would end in. The scene that had me sitting on the edge of my seat though, clutching the hair of the woman sitting in front of me, was future!Spock telling his younger self about some epiphany or revelation or some such involving Jim Kirk. He was so very pleased that the young Spock has all the years with his t'hy'la still before him, whereas he himself can only look back on his memories. AWWW AND ANYWAY. I was so exited about what he said that I can't remember what it was exactly that he had said! So in pursuit of future!Spock's exact words which made present!Spock reconsider his options for a bondmate I found startrek and trekanon which needs reviving for its sheer apparent value, but not the quote, meh.

In conclusion, I would never have guessed that the hetero-angst would come from Spock's corner (which is only logical, come to think of it, since everybody's got to be sexual nowadays (Doctor Who, anyone?) but, sadly, straight is still the assumed default setting). BUT. What present!Spock taketh future!Spock giveth back plentily. :)

No, it's great! You should really go and see it; the original, of course. I said again and again how great it is to have a good Trek movie again. It's been too long.

I'm pretty good, actually. How are you?
