to be honest, i was never much of a TOS fan, as i really never cared for Shatner. really, he just rubbed me the wrong way entirely. so i was quite delighted to see an actual SANE version of his character done, without the needless idiosyncrasies that the show's version had. i also thought that while Vulcan, Prime/Old Spock was the most human of all the characters, managing to bring in a good portion of emotion and respectibility to the plot. i too, am also not much of a fan of the TimeTravel plot device in sci-fi, but i felt that here it worked quite well, managing to explain away all of the little differences between the movie and TOS quite well. i must say i am QUITE looking forward to the announced sequel, as i feel each actor has made their characters so interesting and believably human, that i want to see them again.
