Captain's log. Today a bunch of our ship fell off and nobody likes me.

So I've seen the new Star Trek about 4 times, which is ridiculous, I know, but various people kept asking me to go with them and I'm always like "Oh, no, I couldn't possib--OKAY YEAH LET'S WATCH IT A MILLION TIMES? :D :D :D" I'm am the saddest nerd, it's true.

But anyway, I've also been watching a bunch of the original series and the old movies for the first time in forever because generally I love everyone in TOS except Kirk and after watching the Planet of the Gangsters episode where he makes up a card game to troll people I'm even kind of waffling on that. Nyssa and I watched the planet of the whales movie last night and I learned a lot about...whales and stuff, and the follies of man, but mostly about how Bones McCoy is my favorite and he always will be. I want about a million fics like this:

SPOCK PRIME: You once carried my soul, you know. :|
NEW!MCCOY: D:

I would read this fic a million times.

Mostly? I really loved all the characters (especially young!Spock), and I thought the Enterprise was badass. I want to read a zillion Star Fleet Academy fanfics! But I had no use for the time travel plot at all.

Yeah, at first I was kind of "Time travel? Introduced by a huge exposition dump? Really, movie?" But then it was fucking Nimoy and that was so cool that I didn't mind by about the third time I saw it.
