When I'm old, I shouldn't go to the midnight scene. I don't feel sleepy in the second half. I have to make it up another day. (20210921 IMAX viewing at Beijing International Film Festival)

The first Star Trek. In addition to the scene where the speedboat is flying fast, Turn On, the biggest gain is that Juan Fujun can't be any more handsome! With such a noble and glamorous villain (there are no real high-level creatures), who cares about the life and death of the pair of friends! You can't say that, Spock Xiansen is still a fan~ a little verbose emotional scene and a bit unreasonable reverse deduction one star~
Star Trek Into Darkness quotes
-
James T. Kirk: You filed a report? Why didn't you tell me?
Spock: I incorrectly assumed that you would be truthful in your captain's log.
James T. Kirk: Yeah, I would have been if I didn't have to save your life.
Spock: A fact for which I am grateful immeasurably grateful and the very reason to take responsibility for the actions...
James T. Kirk: Take responsibility, yeah. That'd be so noble, pointy, if you were also throwing me under the bus.
Spock: "Pointy"? Is that a derogatory reference to me?
-
James T. Kirk: How did you find me?
Christopher Pike: I know you better than you think you do. The first time I found you was in a dive like this. Remember that? You got your ass handed to you.
James T. Kirk: No, I didn't.
Christopher Pike: You don't.
James T. Kirk: No, that's not what happened.
Christopher Pike: That was an epic beating.
James T. Kirk: No, it wasn't.
Christopher Pike: You had napkins hanging out of your nose. Did you not?
James T. Kirk: Yeah, that was a good fight.
