Omg both Kirk an spock, are my two tv dads period!!!!wht a fitting send off to.there characters, omg I have never cried so hard since my moms passing 24 yrs ago, an my dads passing back in Jan of this year...
That was an awesome reaction man. You didn't have to say a word, just like this short. We get it. It recaptured the heart and soul of the franchise we loved these modern fools worked so hard to dismantle. Kirk and Spok's friendship is timeless!
We're called toxic fans. We're not. We're TRUE fans reacting to toxic creators. The Unification film is proof of how good Star Trek has the potential to be, if made carefully and with love. Reminding us of what TrueTrek used to be, in a better time.
I was born in 73’ grew up watching it in syndication along with the cartoon. They were my favorite tv experience as a kid. It made me lookup and think HOW and WHY. Great franchise up through Voyager. Made me the sci-fi nerd I am today. Proud to be a Trekkie. Peace
It’s Yeoman JM Colt’s serial number. A weird choice making a minor character from the first pilot so important, but here we are. I love this thing so much! Even want to rewatch the enjoyable but very imperfect Generations again. I even have an old Tee shirt from generations. I’m glad I’m not the only one who got so emotional seeing this! I loathe nu-trek, so this felt very much like a lovely closure. Maybe we’ll see some good trek in the future! I’d like trek made by people who love and understand it rather than a J J Abrams who admitted he never liked Star Trek. 😡 Thank you OTOY! ❤❤❤❤
I'm not sure if this has been said, obviously this is Kirk's goodbye to Spock and the closure needed, but I think maybe this is also Shatner wishing he and Nimoy hadn't fallen out at the end, and he had had the chance to make peace with Nimoy before the end. He couldn't do that in real life, but through Star Trek he could. Just my 2 cents.
Yes; tears. 765874 opens perfectly. The end for Kirk and Spock starts at the beginning. Gary Mitchell (Gary Lockwood) from "Where No Man Has Gone Before"; Kirk's friend, corrupted, a dark god, floating in space. Kirk sees himself as he appeared in the beginning, and end. Star Trek endures: Saavik (Robin Curtis) is with Sorak, her son with Spock. "How we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life": Kirk to Saavik, unknowingly portending the death of Spock, his best friend, the only person to solve the Kobayashi Maru by dying. It's how Kirk and Spock meet death here. Kirk doesn't try to cheat death, Unification is complete: Kirk's with Spock at the end, as it should have always been. Kirk and Spock; our great heroes at journeys end.
I have commented before, this is more William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy for their love and admiration for each other. You have been and always shall be our friends. Live Long and Prosper.
Trekkies losing themselves over this. I dont see why. The de-aging CGI still isnt there it looks like a videogame. 90 year old Shatner reprises his role but his posture is totally different and makes kirk look 'odd'. The score couldnt be less trek if it tried & narratively its an incoherant mess.. what is actually going on? Its bad fan fiction but that being said, its still the best trek we've had in over a decade. And that is fkn SAD.
The de-aging is leaps ahead of where it was for say.....Tarkin in Rogue One and other recent movies like Dial of Destiny. The young Kirk was pretty dang good.
What's going on? Pretty simple. In real life, William Shatner was not able to attend Leonard Nimoy's funeral. Something he very much regrets. So the Roddenberry Archives and OTOY with the license of Paramount that made this canonical, put together these series of films so that in way Shatner is able to say goodbye to his friend though Kirk being able to say goodbye to Spock. They kind of have to move whole universes to do it in the film - as it would need in reality. So, it is a fan fic but with a reason and that is why people like it so much.
Words cannot describe the impact of this for true Trek fans.
I’m not crying. You’re crying. Love this. The tribute these men deserve. Best Star Trek in forever.
Making grown men cry across the internet. Magnificent.
Damn I cry at the ending of this every time even during your damn reaction video. So beautiful and the score is amazing.
Michael Giacchino did an exceptional job at this. Poignant, emotional, bittersweet, subtle yet very powerful.

I think toxic is something of a compliment lately :)
@StinkyGuff Ha, I guess you're right!
The dumbest thing I've ever heard, and we live in the trump age of stupidity
@@astralwerks4 This is why your side lost the election.

That part with young Kirk was pretty darn good.
Thanks for sharing man ...We are all getting old !

Remember Colt had contact with the Talosians.

Totally agree with you about ' the 3 '..they definitely made Star Trek
It’s okay to cry bro, this made it okay!
You have the same reaction as the Chad meme guy tearing up 😂 🥹
@@KakashiBallZ lol oh lord
That was powerful!
... and just as before, they begin their next adventure together.

Whatevers said it's a lovely ending for Spock and Kirk more emotional than most of the modern trek William UK
William Shatner, my first real love. Kudos to you, Sir.
I tear up every time. Why modern Trek erased their greatest Captain ever. I was 6 in 1966. Watched TOS from the beginning.
I’m not crying you are!!! 😉
The original is still the best.
Should have been Kirstie Alley.
S P E C T A C U L A R.
Is this really a sendoff, or the begining of a new run with the original cast?
In short "Star Trek: Odyssey".
And not just because of Gary Lockwood.😢😅

And you just proved you have no clue whst Trek is about period
Another sad, pathetic hater. BTW Sam Witwer stood in for Kirk. Shatner was only involved as an EP.
@Noclaf555 ok chum👍🏻
