I recently watched my first Star Trek film ever. It was the one with the whales (why in the world was it whales, anyway?). AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! Yes, I am a Star Wars fan through and through and nothing can compare with John Williams' mind-blowing genius soundtracks. But I have to admit that I could get into Star Trek a little bit, just to get more of Spock. I have officially added him to my list of favorite characters of all time, and I've only seen one show with him in it. But I can tell that I will like him a lot more once I watch some more, and I will because I enjoyed his character so much. He's joined a high-standards list containing Sherlock Holmes, Gandalf, Treebeard, Han Solo, Brom, Qui-Gon Jinn, and many, many others that I cannot name right now because I can't remember them all. Perhaps I'll just write up another post at some other time when I can consolidate and specify these better.
In any case, this is the confession of a Star Wars fan: Spock is pretty cool.
