Kirk's the best Jesus figure that 20th Century literature's got. Nobody can flick open a communicator with Kirk's flair. The quadrant's rife with female aliens in heat. Say no more. Let's face it, the Prime Directive's been holding us all back.
Someone needs to bend that rule a little and nobody's been stepping up to the plate.
When Spock died, they brought him right back in the very next movie. C'mon guys, it's been two movies. This isn't funny anymore. Fifty million pimply males aged 15 - 35 who dress funny and wish they'd make cell phones that look like communicators can't be wrong. Kirk too, deserves the kind of majestic eulogy that only Kirk can deliver.
