timepiececlock | I said there'd be more posts, didn't I? I'm scouring the El-Jay for fanfic as you read this.

I've rewatched ST, and then rewatched little bits and pieces of it again, and I can tell you, in a tongue and cheek way, that although there are many reasons why I liked the film, there's only one reason (honestly) why I'm fangirlling it. I would love it either way, but for all the other reasons I'd simply enjoy it as any other movie, whereas it takes a particular kind of thing to make me go into fandom mode.

In fact, I think it can be best expressed with a quote from an entirely separate fandom! Because I love quotation crossovers.

The robot falls in love.

Yeah, I'm easy. This hits movie hits at least half a dozen of my fandom kinks in this regard.

OFF-TOPIC:

Call up the captain we've got Krueger on the line
He's got a box of chocolates and a valentine
And MI5 have got a bone to pick with Moses
While Matthew and the big guy just play ring-around-the-roses

A pearl knit sweater and a gasoline rag
He's got a fistful of stars and an old dog tag
Get to Parchman Farm by a number 9 bus
And send the children to the gum tree to wake up Nicodemus

So blow the man down boys
Yeah blow the man down boys
And the tricks that he employs
Are buried in this St Luke's summer's noise

I didn't have it until later in the movie, but man, the favoritism scene made me sit up and blink, my jaw dropping.

I was so shocked that they were implying a pre-established Thing. And the scene was so cute, too, with the way he just assessed her determination and folded like France in a Nerf Gun war.

I knew there would be something from all the buzz on my flist, but I was completely unspoiled for the form the relationship would take in the film.
