This Is Random And Stupid

Sep 28, 2009 22:04

Star Trek TOS, episode 38: The Apple

TRAILER

CAPTAIN’S LOG: Stardate: Monday. Carelessly hopping around unknown planet until redshirt gets killed by flower. This sucks. Spock is being a bitch. This sucks too. Stones explode when thrown and when redshirts step on them. Predictable FAIL.

Some guy thinks he’s a green and yellow ball of stone. He ( Read more... )

MCCOY: Yo! I bring more redshirts.

*laugh* That was my exact reaction too! I like your recap. It's more entertaining than the episode (which really seemed to have it in for Spock, WOW).

This was not a good episode for Spock. Or for redshirts. Or for, I don't know, common sense and things like that.

Love your icon!

Thank you!

Every time I see S/Mc I read it as smack. /random

vail_kagami September 28 2009, 22:03:13 UTC

And every time I read K/Mc, I think its some kind of computer.

Oh god. I've never laughed so long in my entire life. You are made of win and awesome, Win and Awesome!

vail_kagami September 28 2009, 21:41:43 UTC

I'm glad you thought it was funny! I was afraid I was the only one.

ali3nn3 September 28 2009, 21:51:47 UTC

LOL! I am thinking about watching this episode now, just to see all these Spock emo moments... and lightning... and Kirk-Scotty discussions :P Loved this, and I hope you will write summaries liek this on other episodes too?

vail_kagami September 28 2009, 21:57:25 UTC

Certainly not all of them. Because they were great in number, and some of them I don't want to see ever again, not even for the lulz. Some, I would feel bad making fun of. But I can see Spock's Brain looming somewhere in the future.
Thanks for the comment!

*stands, applauds* Whoooo! Author!

OMG, there were about 15 times reading through this where I was really glad I wasn't drinking anything!

You could totes do this for every episode in the series and earn the gratitude of... well, everybody.

vail_kagami September 29 2009, 14:23:45 UTC

Hehe, thank you!
I will certainly not do all episodes, but I can see me doing some more for sure. Spock's Brain for sure, or Naked Time, or Castpaw... Actually, I can think of a few, and some don't even hurt to watch.

gritsinmisery September 29 2009, 14:37:44 UTC

Shore Leave, fer serious (although that one almost sporks itself.) And any of them when Spock (almost) gets the girl -- like Cloud Minders or Paradise Syndrome -- just so we can have emo!Kirk. And Way to Eden, for more Checkov-gets-a-girl goodness. And For the World is Hollow, so Kirk AND Spock can emo over losing McCoy. And Who Mourns for Adonais, for aliens-made-them-do-it.

Erm... being a scant few years older than this show, I may be overly invested in it. Whoops.

vail_kagami September 29 2009, 14:50:57 UTC

Way to Eden, aka Start Trek, the Musical. It would be so easy!

Mudd's Women and I, Mudd. Or The Squire of Gothos, because Trelane kind sproks himself too.
I'd do Space Seed solely for the scene with Kahn and McCoy in sickbay.
More Aliens Made Them Do It: Plato's Stechildren, although that's almost painful to watch.
Wolf in the Fold for the Scotty =/= Jack the Ripper What The Fuck...
There's so much to doooo!

You had a good time with this one :D (It's not as bad as Spock's Brain -- but what is?) I liked how you kept track of when each Redshirt became a Deadshirt. And Redskirts -- LOL!

Vaal made me think of this icon I've been wanting to use :)

(Edited for capitalization fail.)

vail_kagami October 1 2009, 14:08:08 UTC

This was not a good episode for readshirts...

Your icon is epic!
