Signs that I have been in fandom too long:

In the Star Trek (2009) Rifftrax, when Mike Nelson follows up Baby Spock’s little speech about “Whatever our lives were before Nero changed the timeline” with “We could all be GAY now!”, my thoughts were as follows:

1. How is that different?
2. Oh. He is probably being all ironical and shit, because how can this Enterprise crew know that originally …
3. God dammit.

Actually, as far as Kirk’n’Spock goes, this is only a sign that I have seen the original series. But extending it to the rest of them may be a bit of a stretch.

It is gratifying to know I'm not the only one who spotted Spock Prime's dentures. I guess two hundred years of lousy teeth caught up with him.

Also, the answer to the question “Why is Baby McCoy on the bridge?” is: Spock Prime told them to just let the poor doc have a chair, because McCoy Prime’s got a little folding chair set up in the turbolift so he can pop right out and inject comments* whenever necessary. I should think that was obvious.


*Or sometimes injections.

The question of "Why is McCoy on the bridge?" should just be summoned up by "He just is. Get over it." Prime!McCoy was always there, why would Reboot!McCoy be any different. Besides, who else would be there to antagonize Spock at every turn :D

And really, Mike? REALLY? If you want change, make them all straight xD

(Although, if you want to go slashwise, while Spock/Kirk was the main for the TOS, the reboot is seriously throwing some Bones/Kirk signals. Just sayin)

My siblings and I noticed that the Real McCoy (hurr) tends to sort of pop out of the turbolift when he has a line. We decided he set up a chair in there with a paperback and a flask while he waits for his moment.

This is true. Otherwise, he tends just to hang around in sickbay and bitch xD

Oh, and given Mike's commentary on OTHER Trek movies, I'm guessing he was, in fact, being ironic.

Dangit, I kept OFFERING to ...

Anyway, I reserve the right not to wait around for you. But I'd be more than willing to watch it AGAIN.
