Thank you to @tossatnight.bsky.social for hosting the double header. Thank you to everyone who chats along each week! Please everyone stay safe until next time! #TOSSatNight

The James Horner score is fantastic, but seems a bit too happy after this ending. #TOSSatNight

"He's really not dead, as long as we remember him." That line is even more poignant now, given how many of the main cast of TOS have left us. #TOSSatNight

I really liked this book. #TOSSatNight

I was a kid the first time I watched this. I was inconsolable. It still hits. Also, probably the first time I heard Amazing Grace. I will always associate it with this moment. #TOSSatNight

#TOSSatNight 🥺🥹

"No." #TOSSatNight

"You're not going in there." 😢 #TOSSatNight

"Scotty, we need warp speed in three minutes or we're all dead!" is the ultimate Kirk command to Scott. #TOSSatNight

Khan read Moby Dick a thousand times and missed the point every time. #TOSSatNight

That shot of a stuntman on fire lasts, like, half a second. #TOSSatNight

Khan looking annoyed at the guy who nudged his shoulder when the hit the nebula 😂😂😂 #TOSSatNight

James Horner cameo! #TOSSatNight

"Tactical." "Uh oh." #TOSSatNight

The roller coaster of the rest of the movie starts... now. By the book. #TOSSatNight

I love this scene. Saavik has been quietly stewing over the Kobayashi Maru test for most of the movie... And when she finds out that she should have cheated, she's like "What?" #TOSSatNight

"Can I cook or can't I?" #TOSSatNight

"Big chance to get away from it all!" #TOSSatNight

"Say lies! Do things!" #TOSSatNight

Scotty not having kids but being so proud of his nephew... 😢 #TOSSatNight

"Essentially a great rock in space." - me talking to myself while I float in the bath #TOSSatNight

#TOSSatNight I love fan art so much :)

"Use your respirators, lads!" #TOSSatNight

IIRC, Nicholas Meyer asked Ricardo Montalban why he was only wearing one glove and the other hand was bare. Montalban said it felt right and Meyer just went with it. #TOSSatNight

Kirk is doing the same thing here he did in TMP. Take advantage of a situation to reclaim command of the Enterprise. I think it works better here. #TOSSatNight

"Sorry." I love that genuine McCoy moment. #TOSSatNight

"We are clear and free to navigate." I often say this to myself when I've backed my car out of a parking spot at the supermarket. #TOSSatNight

TMP or WOK... There's still some dude in a space suit doing back flips when the Enterprise leaves... #TOSSatNight

My headcanon is that Starfleet/Federation are still so freaked out about Eugenics that when Kirk radioed in the Space Seed situation, it got passed around the bureaucracy like a hot potato and absolutely nobody would take responsibility for it. #TOSSatNight

"You are in a position to demand nothing, sir. I, on the other hand, am in a position to grant ...nothing." Every one of Khan's lines are performed like Shakespeare. Ricardo Montalban relishes every syllable. #TOSSatNight

I love the pause between "Mr... Chekov"... We all know his name, but we're on the edge of our seats anyway. #TOSSatNight

I love the contrast here. Spock gives him a gift and says little. McCoy gives him a gift and within two minutes notices something is off... "Damnit, Jim, what the hell is the matter with you?" Did Spock sense something and say nothing? Or is McCoy in better touch with Kirk's emotions? #TOSSatNight

I want a Short Treks episode of McCoy starting this arrangement with a border ship to bring him illegal Romulan booze. #TOSSatNight

McCoy on the Kobayashi Maru bridge for no reason! Drink! #TOSSatNight

Ah let this James Horner music wash over us... #TOSSatNight

Milton was English. I never understand the relevance of Scott's line about being "a good Scotsman". #TOSSatNight

CETI ALPHA FIVE! #TOSSatNight

Khan's arrogance causes him to destroy the only phaser as dumb demonstration of physical strength #TOSSatNight

"EACH OF YOU IN TURN WILL GO IN THERE!" #TOSSatNight

Khan obsessed with accomplishments and human efficiency... Reminds me of Silicon Valley types today. #TOSSatNight

Actually seeing the Captain's Log being recorded... #TOSSatNight

Talosian music! If only Khan only has a really big head. #TOSSatNight
