Review, or, Hell YEAH I just saw Star Trek!

[caitri]

Important factoids first:

1) Yes, it was awesome.

2) Sadly, no, there was no Kirk/Spock slash.

Whimper.

Commentary is post-cut. Warning: it uses absa-fucking-lutely necessary profanity.

...you seriously expected slash references?

...any good reason why?

I mean, I know ST is one of the franchises that's a huge whore for its fanbase (replaced in the #1 spot by Supernatural) - but really?

[caitri]

Less expectation and more hope, mostly because Abrams tends to be pretty aware of his fanbase and play with it. I'm wondering if there was supposed to be something there and it got cut, because of the two conversations with Kirk and a Red-shirt where they call each other "Cupcake."
