Star Trek Into My Pants

May 17, 2013 01:10

Bought my ticket in advance, got to the theater half an hour early... and maybe two dozen people showed up by the time the movie started. I know it's a Thursday night, but I hope that's not indicative of attendance in general. Anyway, on to...

( All the spoilers! )

fannish ramblings, star trek

It's so odd that I didn't really think of it as a terrorist subplot. I thought of it more in terms of revenge -- which is certainly part of terrorism. But if that was the goal of the dedication, why not also include the London first responders from those bombings?

I TASK YOU WITH WRITING THE "BONES AND A DRAWERFUL OF TRIBBLES" SUBPLOT. GO.

They just HAD to work a tribble in there somehow. I'm still holding my breath for the unicorn dogs.

I TAKE THIS TASK.

And while we're on the subject... that was one fucking mutant tribble.

Yeah, Scotty was awesome in this one -- sticking to his principles about not having mysterious torpedoes near his baby's warp engines, then saving everybody's asses.

And as for Khan's plan... I can only assume he either really was trying to lay low and thought he'd have more time, or that Marcus would send a smaller ship -- too small to carry the torpedoes -- that he could easily commandeer. Because obviously Marcus knew what was in them, and I'm not sure what Khan was thinking in the first place, sticking his crew inside LIVE WEAPONS. He hasn't hidden them from anyone -- there is no possible way he transferred 72 cryopods from storage into torpedoes without EVERYONE noticing.

Perhaps a deleted scene will explain this better, as with Nero being imprisoned for so many years in STXI?

"Does Bones just have a drawerful of dead tribbles just in case, or what?"

How do you even kill a zombie tribble? YOU CAN'T AIM FOR THE HEAD!
