as soon as kirk said "i haven't lost one crew member" i was like "YOU NEVER SAY IT KIRK, YOU'RE JUST JINXING YOURSELF!".
i'm a little more annoyed they went with the Khan route in the first place; it didn't really add to the corrupted-starfleet thing (in fact it might have meant more from someone who used to be starfleet and couldn't stand what they'd become) and in terms of the TOS!Khan, there was so little of his backstory that was actually relevant it was probably more confusing than not for people who didn't know who Khan was "meant to be". plus, i'd rather have spent more time with spock and kirk and seeing them actually being friends before spock would understandably lose his shit the way he does...
...but dang, uhura/spock. that lean up for his kiss. ♥
(ALSO CHRISTINE CHAPEL, wtf. you can pry my head nurse out of my cold dead hands jj)
