Kirk- CP did a great job. I went from 'hmm, he's okay looking' to 'he kinda looks like Kirk' to 'HOLY CRAP HE LOOKS AND ACTS EXACTLY LIKE KIRK WOULD.' The scene where he's making out with the green woman? And he has on nothing but those boxers? There were so many moments where they pulled dialog verbatim from somewhere else and I almost DIED because he did it perfectly. Like the "Spock! It'll work." *swoons*
Umm, suddenly I want mirror-verse bearded Spock and Uhura with the skirt and the knife and they're together and bad ass and I'm a puddle. *dies*
Chekov- Hee! A puppy! He's so cute and curly. You know when they go on shore leave, Sulu has to watch out for him and make sure he isn't kidnapped or something. You are TOTALLY TRUE. I loved McCoy's "Oh, good, he's seventeen."
Bones- I loved him. He was grumpy and hilarious and I never noticed or paid attention that he's older than Jim. I loved him saying he liked Spock and then later asking if he was out of his Vulcan mind. Where are my tapes with the episodes on them? How much are the DVDs? I need mah show! The DVDs are RIDICULOUSLY expensive, but apparently there are entire episodes on youtube? I haven't investigated this rumour for myself, 'cuz I've had the DVD sets for about two years now, but it'd be a good way for a quick fix. Want me to see if I mem'd the post someone made with links? (I know they also have everything but TNG on iTunes for download, so if you ahve favorite episodes, you can get your hands on each one for just a couple bucks).
I STILL can't believe they destroyed Vulcan. I mean come on! It's VULCAN! I kept expecting them to fix it, too. Time travel, after all.
I also really loved that Kirk's father's death had such a completely believable impact on the course of Kirk's life. The fact that in non-AU land Kirk joined Star Fleet straightaway like the overachiever he is, and was given the Enterprise himself on her maiden voyage. And that a Kirk who never knew his father BECAUSE of Starfleet became a total juvenile delinquent and instead of already BEING a captain and taking command of his ship by then, he had a liiiittle catching up to do. ^_^ It was well played.
