Oh, there has to be a Klingons vs. Tribbles joke! One thing this reboot is good for is those small in-jokes!
I wonder how much this Kirk thinks about the other time-line Kirk. He knows that his father lived to see him become a starship captain in the other time-line. He knows Kirk & Spock were very close in that time-line. He wasn't there when Spock asked Spock-Prime about Khan, and I suspect he tends to not dwell on the alternative, but I wonder how much he thinks about it.
And I loved how John Cho pulled that bit with Sulu off. He said it was the first time he'd taken the command chair and the hesitation showed, and then boom, he turns on the confidence and threat when it's needed. It works, awesomely!
