Star Trek movie

[firecat]

I found a theater that offered it with rear window captioning so the OH could see it with me. Now I don't have to go to Wiscon prepared to clap my hands over my ears every five minutes to avoid spoilers.

Watching the movie made me happy. I was entertained.


Sylar gives good Spock. Sylar gives REALLY good Spock.

The rest of the actors did a good job of implying the original characters.

Ttttoooo mmuuccchhhhh sshhhaakkkkkyy ccaaaaammm

I suppose every action movie these days has to have revenge-motivated piratical villains with tribal tattoos and trench coats. But revenge-motivated piratical villains with tribal tattoos and trench coats who are ROMULAN?

I suppose every science fiction thriller these days has to have killer black holes. [*Cue giant sucking sound*]

Uhura-Spock works. A shame that she didn't get to do anything other than be a love interest, because I got the impression the actress would have done a good job with a broader role.

Typically, all the other women in the movie were there to be murdered to make male characters pissed off, or to give birth to male characters.

Sylar gives good Spock, but Eomer gives better Bones.

Send more Bones!

So who were ____ and _____ in your LJ entry? :-)

[firecat]

Hm, I can't find that LJ entry now so I must be confused about who wrote it, sorry.

[sistercoyote.livejournal.com]

LOL nevermind, then. ;)

I dunno, I thought Eomer was sufficiently older than the rest of the cast for him to work as Bones.

In what LJ entry? /is confused.

My understanding, which I got from Memory Alpha, is that this cast has signed on for two more movies if this one does well. I think it's going to do well.

I agree Eomer worked as Bones, but for some reason the sex appeal wasn't quite there for me. Perhaps if I hadn't been so distracted by Sylar and Nemo...

Having established that neither of us knows who ___ and ___ were, shall I scar(e) you with McCoy/Kirk fanfic? Or would you rather read "How Not to Kick Puppies"?

[firecat]

McCoy/Kirk fanfic works for me!

"Bones, dare I ask what ELSE can you do with those rather long, wide hyposprays?"

[firecat]

Eomer as Bones has a lot of potential, but he's too young for me right now...I'll be looking forward to Star Trek The Reboot 10 though!

I have to admit.

There's probably a longer LJ post in this, but all of my early crushes were either doctors or EMTs (McCoy, Johnny Gage in Emergency!) and now, looking back, I can't figure out if I had crushes on them or if I wanted to be them - and if I wanted to be them, what changed?

Embrace the power of and!

(Does this also extend to House?)

[sistercoyote.livejournal.com]

I honestly don't know.

I don't think I'm prepared to try to become a doctor at this point in my life, however...
