(Anonymous) 2014-09-23 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)He just seems so…mean and petty in the first film (even before his planet is lost and he somewhat has an excuse).
Like that thing about bringing up Kirk's dad. Or ignoring that Uhura wants to be on the Enterprise and putting her on the Farragut. Isn't he supposed to lover her.
I feel like if we had seen them fall in love, it would have been more sympathetic.

Any Spock/Uhura relationship should have been way more touching. And it just wasn't.

(Anonymous) 2014-09-23 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)As annoying as Kirk was, it rubbed me the wrong way that she called him a hick and said he had sex with farm animals. Along with her presumption that he wouldn't know what xenolinguistics was, it just made her seem kind of…elitist(?) I guess. And that she had a thing against people from the country…as though they're uncultured.
I think her constant sniping with Kirk didn't help either because it just made the tone of both their scenes so negative.
I also think it was a mistake not to develop her relationship with Spock onscreen because when she goes to confront him about her placement, the way she's talking to him really shocked me. This is her professor and commanding officer and without knowing that she's also his girlfriend, my first impression of that scene was that she was being incredibly disrespectful. This wouldn't have been the case at all, though, if I had known about their relationship beforehand.
I don't think she gets it quite as bad as Spock, but there's definitely room for improvement. Instead of having her be pissed at Kirk, I wish they would have given her more scenes with Spock earlier in the film.

It's pretty obvious the creators of the reboot never watched Uhura in TOS. So disappointing.
