    The new Star Trek movie was a terrible fucking mess script-wise, and Kirk and Spock Prime (Nimoy) were like finding a turd on the inside of your Tootsie Pop / Milk Dud.

    Everything else was awesome though.

    I'd pay good money for audio books read by the new Chekov and Scottie. Fuck, throw in Alan Alda as a narrator and have them read tweets, fucking TWEETS, and I'd pay for it.

    I hope the next movie has NO Nimoy, a better script (supposedly it will), and less of a focus on his doucheness Captain Jerk The Kirk.
