One word spoilers of the new Star Trek movie:
EEEEEEEEarworms!
SSSSSSSSpuhura! (which should make all five fans of that pairing very happy)
Khaaaaaaaan! Um, I mean Spoooooooock!
Also, they cut Spock's viewer but kept Uhura's earpiece, which I'm OK with, though I would have done it the other way around. Also, they kept Pike's wheelchair (kinda), Chekov's impediment, Sulu's swordfighting and McCoy's... everything, so I have to be happy about that.
Also, Kirk's a fan of the Beasties? I always figured him for a hair metal kind of guy. Go figure!
Finally, as far as I can tell, New!Kirk's entire performance was based on this single graphic, which is pretty OK by me:

At one point in her story, she suddenly grabs Spock by the ears and drags his head down so she can plant a kiss on him. AND Spock doesn't object. Lolz, it's fan fiction by the original cast!

I've never read that, but it sounds amazing.
