Star Trek: the Voyage Home thought

I watched the movie for the first time, and enjoyed every moment of that. It has a clever and humourous plot, every character having their moment to shine, and the emotional arc of Spock is so touching. I also like that Gillian Taylor is not sloted into the obligatory love interest role and has her own motive and life. Definitely worth a rewatch.

Some general thought:

  • I love Jim's "Simple logic" line.
  • I love how Spock calmly nerve pinch the punk, jump into the sink to meld with the whale and his use of the "colourful expressions"
  • I really like how Scotty and McCoy take cover to infiltrate the company. Scotty's so devious. McCoy's shock to 20th century medicine is also very funny.
  • It's so obvious that the catalyst for Spock to rediscover his feeling is Jim. Just look at his face when Jim jested how come he felt nothing.
  • I love that there are female captains in the last judgment scene. There's definitely progress here.
