[personal profile] amazing_holly's first trip to the cinema being such an amazing film? PRICELESS.

So, yeah, we spent our lottery winnings on going to see the new Star Trek film. And at some bits Holly had to hold my hand. And at some bits we hugged. And at some bits we giggled. And when they hid behind Titan and came up through the clouds and you could see Saturn she said it's SATURN! I LOVE SATURN! But best of all was at the end when we were hugging each other and going YAYYYYYY!!! and Leonard Nimoy said Space. The final frontier....

Oh man, that was amazing. And as the credits rolled she started sniffling, and tears rolling down her face, and I asked her what was wrong. She said I'm sad it's over, mummy!

That's my girl.

Oh yeah, [personal profile] matgb and I really enjoyed it too. Might be a proper review later when I come down from my high.

:D

There are a couple of bits that niggled at my feminism, but it terms of faithfulness to the spirit of TOS? It had it in spades. There was real genuine love there. McCoy was amazing. Scotty was a bit OTT, but Pegg was clearly loving it. Sulu was awesome. Checkov was fab (although he had curly hair).

And, you know... Captain Pike! Green Orion girls! Redshirts! English Redshirts who say ARSE! And Winona Rider's Amanda... it's a small part, but Cthulhu she's good.

I really, really loved it.
