Star Trek (spoilers - for those who've seen it already)

As suggested by m0riarty here's a thread for those who've seen the film and wish to discuss it in detail.

Some random thoughts: Voice. Hair. Eyes. Body. BAMF. Sorry for being a bit incoherent.

Not very spoilerish though.

Okay, so let's talk more deeply about John Harrison aka Khan, a superhuman genetically manipulated being taking revenge on Starfleet and getting deep frozen in the end after having unwillingly saved Kirk's life.

Yes, hot looking though deep-frozen...

I hope they'll defrost him in the near future. 
Mattlocked, was that spoilerish enough? Tell the story of STID in one sentence.

I think you missed that everybody is crying. Sooner or later.

Re: Star Trek (spoilers - for those who've seen it already)

Sorry, forgot this one: Kirk, Spock, Scotty, Uhura and Benedict (of course, what he be without that?) are all welling up some time or other. But then ST has always been about feelings and (not only) about action in space.

Re: Star Trek (spoilers - for those who've seen it already)

What is welling up? My dictionary suggested "swelling up"

It means getting tears in your eyes.

I'm getting worried, Harriet. Are you feeling well?

Never felt better    - time to get back to topic, my stuff is nothing but the unofficial subtext

I'm relieved to hear that. I tell you what - why don't you get your reader, to go bed and read about swelling up or whatever makes you happy.

Actually (after, *cough* watching it again tonight) Pike also cries (when he dies), and I'm sure that Bones has tears in his eyes just before seeiing the reanimated tribble. Carol Marcus also cried, it was when she was beamed off the Enterprise.

Actually, the only important ones who've never cried where Chekov and Sulu.

Oh, yes, wasn't sure about Pike. Chekov, Sulu, what's that? Not a single tear for your captain?

Re: Star Trek (spoilers - for those who've seen it already)

My husband found this (German) article yesterday. It basically says (with many complicated sentences) that the film ships Kirk and Spock.

http://www.faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/kino/video-filmkritiken/video-filmkritik-fernreisende-mit-sternbeziehung-12174664.html

Went to see it again (purely for research of course) and must say: Yes, you CAN see Kirk as being in love with Spock. You don't have to, not at all, but if you ship them (which I don't) this film surely makes you happy.
Of course you have to bend your mind around the fact that Kirk was in bed with two feline girls at a time, but hey, some of us manage to bend their minds around Sarah and Jeanette as well...
