We saw Star Trek tonight, and OMFG I DON'T THINK I CAN CONTAIN THE HAPPY. *splodes* It was that good. For me. Yes. There will be coherence later, probably.

And because this post is an entirely hate-and-cynicism-free-zone, I also just saw a trailer on [livejournal.com profile] apocalypsos's journal for the upcoming Robert-Downey-Jr-Holmes movie, and AHAHAHA IT'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH FUN. Mysticism! Holmes in sarcasm-mode! Watson going "And you keep stealing my clothes!" XD I have to wait until Christmas for this? Come on!

Also, can they make more Star Trek movies with these actors now plz? Their chemistry = MAJOR WIN.

I think I've used up my capslock allotment for the next three years. Time for bed!

OMGYES!

So, I went to see it with a trio of non-Holmesian friends, and when Spock had got about as far as "When you have eliminated..." I curled up in a ball and shoved a hand over my mouth to quench the overpowering squee that would have had the ENTIRE theater staring at me elsewise, and had to stage whisper "It's a Sherlock Holmes line!" at my companions, and was thus the subject of much 'oh, you crazy fangirl'-type eyerolling XD

Their chemisty... ummm, YES. YES YES YES. It's been near two weeks and I am no nearer coherent yet!

Oooo, is the trailer out? *goes off to watch*

Eeee! Okay, more squeeing, this time post-trailer:

Watson: Holmes, does your depravity know no bounds?
Holmes: No.

My mental context:

Holmes: Watson, old chap, I've rather a busy schedule in this movie, but somewhere between saving the universe and evading the clutches of the dread Mrs. Norton, it looks like I've got an hour or two free. D'you fancy a bit of buggery before you go off and leave me for the stifling clutches of wedlock?
Watson: Holmes, does your depravity know no bounds?
Holmes: No.
Watson: *ponders* Oh. All right, then, no time to waste!
*our view is instantly obscured by a haze of flying jackets, hats, collars, cuffs, cravats, shirts, plackets, waiscoats, braces, trousers, shoes, socks and all the other goodness knows what that the respectable Victorian male was sure to be wearing at all times. Plus a stethoscope, two revolvers, a pair of handcuffs (which are quickly snatched back by a very pale hand with very long fingers), a jemmy and lockpicks, a notepad and copiously leaking fountain pen, a silver cigarette case, and, inexplicably, three live white mice. And Holmes' stubble.*

When life gives you Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, make lemonade. Or, better yet, make slash! And I'm gonna stop sillying all over your journal now :)

Star Trek is epic win.
Saw it on mother's day but then I've been a fan of the original series since I was 5 years old xD
I also like Voyager though.

And I just saw the new Holmes trailer xD
Watson looked soooooo good. And their scenes together? Awesome!
I might just get the DVD when it's in the stores :D

About more movies, I hear they've had Paramounts permission to make more in March already. If this is going to be a commercial success (and I bet that it's gonna be!!!) they'll do AT LEAST one more.

:D

I get to see the Star Trek movie on Friday, can't wait...! >3</ Also, just saw the trailer myself, and it does look like it could be a lot of fun. :D I don't get why so many people seem so negative. Loosen up a little, it could even be not quite perfect (*legasp*) and STILL fun (with the right attitude). :9

I'm SO glad you liked it! I'm hoping Daddy wants to see it, but if he doesn't, perhaps you'd like to go again. I'm very tempted to just go by myself this week, but I want to wait for him if he wants to go. :)

I saw the Downey-Holmes trailer last night, and I was kind of like O_O because I thought you might not like it, so I'm glad that you think it will be fun, because I do, too!

*And btw, the comments on this post have me rolling on the floor. I love your f'list!*

Watson going "And you keep stealing my clothes!"

*gigglesnort*

I have not actually watched the trailer--do we get to know why? Is this so Holmes can wear them for disguising purposes? Or for sentimental purposes. Or not to wear at all, but merely to result in a Watson unburdened by excessive clothing. One does wonder.
