Trekkie's youth idol drama

Wayne 2022-04-19 09:01:07

Another tale of a gifted, rebellious teenager on his way to success, but this time it's the famous Jams T. kirk. Even though the story isn't great, just to see the young kirk and spock is enough to make one go to the cinema. Several actors did not disappoint, but I really can't accept the teacher-student relationship between spock and uhura.
Not sure what will be written in the sequel, will the restoration timeline go back to the original story or will it continue to develop another set of trek stories in this different parallel reality?

Star Trek quotes

  • George Kirk: What are we gonna call him?

    Winona Kirk: We could name him after your father.

    George Kirk: Tiberius? You kidding me? No, that's the worst. Let's name him after your dad. Let's call him Jim.

    Winona Kirk: Jim. OK, Jim it is.

    George Kirk: Sweetheart, can you hear me?

    Winona Kirk: I hear you.

    George Kirk: I love you so much. I love you...

  • Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: Permission to speak freely, sir?

    Spock: I welcome it.

    Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: Do you? OK, then. Are you out of your Vulcan mind? Are you making a logical choice, sending Kirk away? Probably. But, the right one? You know, back home we have a saying: "If you're gonna ride in the Kentucky Derby, you don't leave your prize stallion in the stable."

    Spock: A curious metaphor, doctor, as a stallion must first be broken before it can reach its potential.

    Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: My God, man, you could at least ACT like it was a hard decision.

    Spock: I intend to assist in the effort to reestablish communication with Starfleet. However, if crew morale is better served by my roaming the halls weeping, I will gladly defer to your medical expertise. Excuse me.

    Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: [as Spock leaves] Green-blooded hobgoblin.
