Star Trekkin' Across the Universe

[jedibuttercup]

I'm watching a few old TOS episodes to refresh my memory today. For various reasons, I've started with "The Conscience of the King", and OMG. *laughs* I'd forgotten just how accurate Pine's portrayal of Kirk's behavior with women really is.

The science can still go hang, but every time I watch the movie I get even more impressed with all the love and detail they lavished on the remake in other ways. I love this 'verse, I really do.

... The adolescent Hogwarts escapees writing "Supuhura" and "Spirk" fanfiction, however? *wince* Overall, the quality of new Trek fanfiction on LJ has been extremely high and very enjoyable, but there are already a couple of comms I think I'm going to have to defriend before they harsh my squee.

Lieutenant Uhura, Report!

There's Klingons on the starboard bow, starboard bow, starboard bow
There's Klingons on the starboard bow, starboard bow, Jim.

Analysis, Mister Spock!

It's life, Jim, but not as we know it, not as we know it, not as we know it

*laughing* I haven't heard that song in forever. Brings back many memories that I thought I had managed to suppress.

It will be well in the universe again soon. I promise.
