Ah ha ha! Kirk doing Dawson's slow cry? (I should have saved that thing).
The Kirk-Dean comparison is pretty effective, I think. They're both fighting for the greater good, and willing to sacrifice themselves in the process, but when it comes to their brothers, they can't seem to let them make the same choice, and can't let them go. (I love K/S actually, but they're definitely brothers-in-arms before anything else).
Still, what most worries me about the movie is that the chemistry between new Kirk and Spock is wrong. Or that the epic 'friendship' will be just a side note in a very big, action heavy movie with Kirk frolicking with space babes.
Yeah, I worry about that too. I also hope that the Kirk/Spock/McCoy dynamic will be there in full force. Those guys are a large part of what made the show watchable. And the bridge crew is key.
