"James T. Kirk is a womanizer" is one of the biggest ongoing misreads of TOS. He's not! He's a romantic! He's a great big sop who falls head over heels in love with every woman he's with, and would have settled down with any of them were it not for his sense of duty.
Was that before or after Kirk banged everything that walked in the Milky Way?

Shoutout to @lafilmcritics.bsky.social. For my money they have the best awards selections of any major critics association and I’m not just saying that because I’m an Angeleno.

Part of the reason I love PTA, he never bad mouths other movies and only lifts up other films and filmmakers. As we all should be. (I mean those of us working in the industry, critics you keep doing your thing. We need cultural criticism, it is so so valuable!)
