Fire everything!

I went to see a film tonight. Oh, you might've heard of it - Star Trek

So there was a lot of stuff that happens in it. In addition to that, I think I have a mega crush on Zachary Quinto I really loved it.

Also, if I understand it right, because of Captain Nemo, er, Nero going back in time and changing everything, this story is effectively a whole new Star Trek AU where from this point on the scriptwriters in future do not have to stick to the original series their lives are different from what they would've been.

I was worried about what they were going to do with all the chemistry of Kirk/Spock but between them I think the two actors got it going on pretty well. I liked the Spock/Uhura storyline too, even if I was cheesed off that Uhura got to do little more than run about in a mini skirt kissing Spock. Some kicking ass on her part would've been appreciated considering she was the main female character. (Also, miniskirts, yeesh)

I thought Winona Ryder as Spock's mum was a totally wasted opportunity.

Simon Pegg and Karl Urban were just beautiful as Scotty and Bones. Chekov the nerdtastic 17 year old maths genius was a lovely reinvention of the original.

At the end, we both just wanted another one.

I cannot imagine how you can possibly find this man appealing.
(ok, except for maybe the pure sex he exudes.)
And is it just me, or does this image have a very ClockworkOrange vibe to it?

Whoa, that looks exactly like a Clockwork Orange fancy dress outfit, yes. They're not remaking it are they?

I think it's the aura of raw sex he exudes. Probably.

It's the eyebrows. They are hypnotising. Seriously, the eyebrows are the sole reason I watched last two seasons of Heroes despite all the pain and voiceovers that show inflicted on me. Guh. It's like a thrall.

I hope they aren't remaking Clockwork. That movie scarred me for life! I couldn't even imagine how graphic a modern version would be. XD
