i originally didn't actually plan to watch it, and was surprisingly amazed by how great it was. could be because of the lack of expectations (unlike origins, which barely adhered to the comic original) , but honestly i was duly impressed by the effects and how three-dimensional the characters were. i remember being seven and catching a rerun of the show, and was bored to death.
minor spoilers in the next paragraph.
love goes to:
1. the space-time continuum. i adore time travel paradoxes, hints of the butterfly effect. some movies flunk because of so many loopholes (some nicholas cage one a couple of months back), but startrek actually covered a good amount of ground.
2. spock a.k.a. zachary quinto. i've always loved quinto, because of his range, and it's not easy to portray emotions when assuming an emotionless facade. although his character here wasn't that great a leap from heroes, kudos should still go out.
doing the vulcan salute.
