He's going to make it much harder on me after I see him as teenage Michael Biehn in Terminator Salvation.
It's quite an incestuous film season, as Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana (Terminator and Star Trek) are in James Cameron's Avatar coming out this year and green gal Gaila gets the shaft as Scarlet in G.I. Joe.
Oh man, that would be FUN. Kirk and Adrian facing off because while Kirk may think he's the shit Adrian knows that he's the fiercest one at the table, and Dan would be sweetly willing to listen to Bones complain about the new insane engineer, 17 year olds running the bridge and why transporters are going to kill us all.
And Jon and Spock can have a literal-off (...what is the purpose of this 'candle'? Indeed, there is sufficient lighting at this table without the unecessary addition of a fire hazard in the form of an uncovered flame...) while their girls sigh and compare notes on the benefits of non-existent skirts.
With all of the adults out for the night, Chekov takes Sulu and Scotty out in Archie (with Dan fully unaware of this, of course. Whacky hijinks ensue!).
We should move to Hollywood, as these ideas are pure gold.
*Rorsharch barges into restuarant, everyone gasps* Dan: But... You're dead! I saw you die. Rorsharch: Really, Dan? Is that what you saw? I've been in a coma for two years, but now I'm back... Random audience member: But dude, you were blood splatter, no way could you b- *everyone hushes audience memeber* Adrian: What are you doing here, Rorsharch? We've moved on. Rorsharch: I know what you did! And what's more... *points at Dan* that's my baby! Random audience member: But he's not pregn- *everyone hushes audience member* Dan: Oh... oh god, Adrian, I wanted to tell you... Adrian: Dan? what is this? Kirk: Ha! You've been played, you purple-suited nancy boy. Whose the fucking King now, eh? I have my own spaceship, you know! Adrian: shut up, you pathetic upstart, or would you like to know exactly why your navigator spends so much time in the sickbay, hmm? Got anything to say, my good doctor? Uhura: Bones! Chekov is underage! Bones: I...uh...dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a monogamist! Kirk: You bastard! Spock: I find this display of human emotion quite fascinating. Jon: I do not understand why they play these games. why can't everything be simple, like quantum mechanics? *Spock and Jon stare at each other, then leave. The sounds of a multiple!Jon orgy start coming from the bathroom.* Kirk: Hey there. what's your name? Laurie: They call me... the Silk Spectre...and I always keep my kinky boots on... Kirk: Uh... well, i have my own spaceship! Laurie: Wanna...show me around? Random audience member: Oh, for fucks sake! *Rorsharch breaks random audience members fingers and bites off his face*
OH LORD. So many lolz were had, but this: I...uh...dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a monogamist! is my favorite.
Just as how Chekov, Scotty, Spock, and Uhura were my favorites in the film, my favorite line hands down was Kirk yelling at Bones, "I wish I didn't know you!"
Rorschach can get sent into space in some other alternate timeline with Nero, like a peace-offering. "My apologies for the loss of your home planet, wife, and potential off-spring. Please accept this terribly unhygienic malcontent from the past."
Scotty was so perfect. My parents are fan going back to the original series, so I took them out to see Star Trek and there were moments where I had to shush my own mother, she was laughing that hard.
You need to make that icon of Bones and I must make an icon of Anton that proclaims he bleeds rainbows and glitter.
I love the subtleties of the Spock/Nyota relationship; I've only seen the film once, but I kept my eyes on those two the entire time to absorb every damn detail. Odd comparison here, but I had to compare and contrast their scenes as opposed to those of Laurie/Dan in Watchmen. A simple look here (especially after he started strangling Kirk and looked absolutely horrified at what he had done and how she looked as though she was going to start sobbing for him) and there along with an embrace spoke volumes compared to doin' it in Archie. You can just see and feel how strongly they feel for each other without having to scream it from the rooftops.
You are too right. Sometimes I think one of the reasons I like my slash so much is because all of the Dan/Laurie painful obviousness of the het couples. Bu this, this was beautiful.
Simon Pegg rules so hard.
also, icons made! and I couldn't resist throwing in some Chekov, used some frames from your gif to do it, hope you don't mind... actually, hang on , I'll credit that in...
(Don't worry, they're not nearly as awesome as your glitter ones shall be)
YES to everything you said. Going by the film we have now, as well as numerous cast interviews, the new Trek franchise has a great level of heart, humor, and maturity; which I've not seen in a long while. Just to be safe (and from urging from my own mother!), I'm actually going to write to JJ Abrams, Roberto Orci, and Alex Kurtzman just to express my gratitude and admiration. I don't expect personal replies, but I would like my opinion to get out there. Abrams primarily works in television, but going by films such as Cloverfield, he's not quite what you'd call Hollywood.
I also just downloaded loads of Star Trek screencaps, so expect big ol' picspams here in the near future.
*requests permission to move into your nerdsville*
Go you! I really think they'd appreciate it. Also, your picspams are the most awesome things on lj. I'm too lazy/incompetent to screencap so I have to steal images for my macro-ing and iconning needs
I'll make sure not to say, "IF YOU BREAK UP S/U I'LL CUT YOU. ALSO, NUDE CHEKOV."
The last time I wrote to anyone famous was the Spice Girls, over ten years ago. They sent me a post-card of themselves, which was awesome (Geri left them around that time, but she was included too, which I appreciated). I still have that laying around somewhere.
I find that if I can't articulate anything, it's best to cram in loads of picspam.
But have you not heard? The plot outline for the next film is out, and yes indeed Matthew Goode is cast! From what i hear, he will be playing a quasi-omnipotent alien creature separated from it's own continuum by the black hole at the end of ST11, who takes the form of a ridiculously good-looking human as it/he recuperates on board the enterprise. Curious about these creatures, he endeavors to experience life as a human to the fullest, which for cinematic reasons means having lots and lots of sex with all the members of the crew, especially scotty (who teaches him about human humour), bones (he's more of a man-whore than you'd think) and chekov (he's shiny!).
The only exception is spock, because as a highly empathetic and telepathic being the weight of spocks grief hits him like a sledgehammer whenever they are near each other, and Uhura cos she's got spock, and lets face it even matthew goode isn't quite good enough to divert her attention. Which leaves space for S/U awkward sex in the captains chair and lots of beautiful quiet moments in turbolifts.
Oh yeah, and there like some disaster that's wrecking the universe but they're all to busy with their cross-species sexin's to notice so they all die. (Their contracts ran out and the studio is cheap.)
I love that Anton is in two films this Summer that are worth watching. I giggled like a tard at him in Star Trek and Terminator Salvation will be no different.
His other major roles were in Charlie Bartlett (seen above with Downey) and Alpha Dog. Anton's been acting since he was 8 years old and is the child of Russian ice skaters, so he's a genuine Russian (he doesn't actually have the accent, but as you could see, he can easily replicate it). I look forward to seeing him as teenage Kyle Reese in Terminator Salvation and in particular, Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac with Emma Roberts and an entirely Japanese cast.
