OMG... THAT'S where I saw Bones!! I kept thinking, WHY does he look so familiar! :D
But you forgot that Chris Pine was the gorgeous guy who attempted to woo Anne Hathaway in "The Princess Diaries 2." :) The minute I heard he was cast as Captain Kirk, I was in raptures. ^.^b
Seriously, this movie addressed the fans, and it introduced new fans to the franchise as well. J.J. Abrahams should be given a freakin' Oscar! :D I saw it with church friends on Thursday night at the Ziegfield, then with Ame and her SO on Saturday at an iMax theatre. And I'm gonna probably see it a third time with Ishi n' Tannim next Saturday. It was just amazing! We kept quoting the movie! :D
I cannot wait to see what the next movie will be about. *.*
Movie, heck, I'd love to see all those guys do a series together. Doubt they will though, there's a few of them that you don't see EXCEPT in film.
And yes, I know Chris Pine was Kirk (I knew I had recognized him, but it wasn't until I pulled up IMDB earlier today that I realized where I knew him from) I just don't get all fan-girly for him :P
"Damnit, I'm a doctor, not a physicist!"
The thing I liked was that it delved a little bit more into the personalities - everyone knows Hikaru Sulu is a master fencer, but I think there are all of TWO episodes in the original series that reference it. And it isn't in any of the movies. (Which makes me wonder if it was something wrote in without finding out if George Takai was good with a blade.)
And I thought it was HIGHLY appropriate how Mr. Scott first came to the Enterprise.
"What's your hand to hand training?" "Fencing." XD XD
"Did you leave the parking break on?"
And yes, I loved the fact that this was totally a character-driven movie. Each one of them got their moment "to shine" in the movie, and we also got to see some never-before seen background information about some of the characters, and I think it made for a much richer movie.
And how cool was the "in-the-movie" reason for the reboot? XD Seriously, if JJ Abrahams doesn't direct the next movies, I'll be pissed off.
Hehe, yeah, Ain and I discussed that the entire way home from the movie. We also both thought that Leonard Nimoy was having the time of his life in this movie. XD He looked as giddy as a schoolboy.
Agreed. Although, as I said, I'd watch it religiously if they turned it into a TV series.
Ah, the lock on? :D Yeah, that was funny, if that's what it was intended on being. ^.^b Remember that transporter technology was still very new at the beginning, so that might be how they were envisioned for the classic series.

At least, given how the transporter worked, that's the only thing it could've been. :P
