"Star Trek" was...AWESOME.
It was so awesome, in fact, that I came thisclose to sneaking into the next showing next door. Instead I came home and popped in the first season DVD (so I'm not one of those fans*, you know?)
MR. LUCAS I'M SORRY! (BUT SOMETIMES YOU BRING THIS ON YOURSELF YOU KNOW)
So, um, is it weird that I pretty much just want to ship crewmember/crewmember in endless variations? But especially Spock/Uhura, Kirk/Bones, Kirk/Spock*, Uhura/Spock/Kirk and Sulu/Chekov.
Seriously, best casting ever. We can has next movie now? I'm so jazzed, I wasn't expecting to be this into it. Dad says, "I almost cried, I was so happy."
ETA: Anne Hornaday's
review for the Post is definitely my favorite.
*which honestly I didn't even really ping on until Leonard Nimoy showed up and totally gave Kirk the eye. Then I got it, and happily applied it to Zach Quinto and Chris Pine. And is it just me, or did he later basically say to Young Spock, "Yeah, I made him think it would cause a rift in the space-time continuum so you guys could hook up, DON'T LET ME DOWN"? Old Spock is a pervy K/S fancier!
**although I still really really really want to read fic with this specific movie canon. A lot.

And now I want Trek/POTC crossover shit ... Uhura and the chief engineer being Anamaria's and Groves's descendents, of course, and Sulu is DEFINITELY a Turner. (And was it just me, or did you also get a Jack-origins vibe off of the whole thing of Kirk being born in the middle of an electrical space storm/battle? Remember that bit of backstory before AWE in the game/unofficial canon where Jack was supposedly born at sea in the middle of a typhoon?)
I SO want Abrams to tackle some Next Gen cast mythology now. Maybe the crew can run into Noonien Soong sometime! /fangirls

Nawilla and I left there agreeing that we both want to see Spock/Obi-Wan fic and I'm not even sure why. Maybe because Obi-Wan was the only great thing from the prequel trilogy?

If you are in want of fic, I can rec away. There is some really good stuff being written already, and an anonymous kink meme in progress!

Pretty much anyone would be fine, though I really want to read some Jim/Bones.

http://transtempts.livejournal.com/630916.html Prelude to Kirk/Spock/Uhura, which seems to be one of my favorite flavors
http://vaingirlfic.livejournal.com/62981.html Kirk/Spock/Uhura NOW WITH PORN. Crazy hot and well-written all around.
http://cleo2584.livejournal.com/492609.html My favorite take on the Spock Prime/Kirk cave scene so far - short but really lovely.
http://ifyouweremine.livejournal.com/147204.html Whereine Kirk and Spock Have Inadvisible Drunken Sex. Quick and dirty PWP.
http://community.livejournal.com/kirkspock/27272.html Five Times Kirk Tried to Seduce Spock, and One Time He Succeeded. Okay, so this is actually TOS fic, but it was so cute I couldn't resist.
And lastly, there's the kink meme here: http://community.livejournal.com/st_xi_kink/379.html?view=55163#t55163
There might be some Kirk/Bones by now (which I also really want!). The Spock/Uhura "Talk Academic To Me" is pretty much awesome.

I had not seen that. Thank you.
I probably should go add to those 4 pages worth of comments.

Plus, I may or may not be writing Kirk/McCoy at this very moment *shifty eyes*

Does that make you my hero or what?I've missed your writing so much.
I haven't gone through my flist yet to check, but did you see the musical piece about Spock at the kink meme? There's some really fun stuff there, most of the really good pieces are Spock/Uhura.
I'm going to need new icons, aren't I? And here I was so proud of myself for dropping almost all the fandom ones. heh.
