vanillafluffySPN killed me. Oh, boys! I feel an urge to make an aspirin run to SD---poor Bobby! And "ass-reamed in Heaven"?! Sounds deliciously filthy. At the moment, Cas, I'd say you deserve it. *coughAnnacough* Unfortunately, I don't have a frame-advance function on my DVR, so I'm not sure who was who in a scene I'm not going to describe because some people are funny about trailers. But I don't *think* it was Bobby....
Star Trek---Holy wow, I want to have Spock's babies! (Sorry, Leonard, but I never had *that* reaction before.) ZQ has always been awesome, but this?! I think some of those big honkin' Dolby explosions were my ovaries. Shazam! The new Kirk was also more to my taste than Shatner. Ditto Uhura---although wtf is with the trend for false eyelashes lately? I noticed it first with poor Malin Akerman in The Watchmen---flutter them and the butterfly effect goes wild---they can practically cause their own weather system.
Plot? Yes, there was one. No, it didn't go into any great moral or ethical debates, didn't debate the human (or Vulcan) condition---it was a sweet thrill ride that produced the usual suspects with panache. For anyone who went in there ignorant of the usual suspects, they were all given solid introductions. Okay, so Chekov looks nothing like Walter Koenig. And there was a Heroes ep that featured someone cast as Hiro's dad who made a much more believable young George Takei. Bones and Scotty, though, were both terrific fun.
Without giving too much away, they really did reinvent the franchise. At least two non-crew canon charecters buy the farm. That and a certain time paradox mean that this is NOT your daddy's Trek---not in a bad way, just different. The f/x were gonzo. I want MORE. It's showing at the IMAX at KSC---I have GOT to see it there!
Headed over to StormValkyrie's house-warming party---otherwise, I probably would've snuck into Wolverine---had a nice time, came home, caught some TV. God, I miss having normal hours! I work a regular shift tomorrow, but have Harper's Island to look forward to.
Technically, tomorrow is supposed to be the full moon. And yet, it felt like Thursday was. What next?!
