I have to admit that there's quite a bit of GLEE that I feel whenever someone's Mac freezes up on them. I get very, 'ha HA!', especially when it happens soon after being snottily told that Macs are better because they never crash. ahhh, Schadenfreude.

and I had other things to post about but I've forgotten them because Dru wrote Chekov and Sulu ambushing McCoy with HOCKEY. HOCKEY. I just...yes. I am happy.

also, I wrote McCoy/Chekov last night! and I can't help but wonder if old-school ST fans are feeling much like I did when the first X-Men movie came out, which was along the lines of, 'OMG, you're getting your STUPID GREASY HANDS all over MY COMICS CANON!!! WTF?!?! You don't even know what the Danger Room is!!!! GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT!!!!!', or if they're feeling a bit more gracious. heh. oops.

I think the hardcore trekkers are sort of split 50/50 in their reaction. Really, I think it depends on how they felt about the movie. I think Star Trek XI paid a lot more tribute to the original canon than X-Men did, too. So, that can make a difference.

I've seen a lot of people being pretty helpful with linking to canon resources and offering to beta for accuracy. The great thing is, though, that because of the AU aspect of the movie, a lot of that stuff can just be swept out and never bothered with. WE CAN JUST HAVE PORN! \o/

oh man, I am SO GLAD they handed us the AU thing because I am lazy and wouldn't want to do the canon research, but then would've felt guilty about not doing it. Now I can just concentrate on the porn. :D
