Star Trek movie question

[donutsweeper]

Just saw it.

Quick, unspoilery question- What's the name of Scotty's sidekick? Was he ever named?

Thanks to _medley_, I've learned the answer is apparently Keenser. Woot- the actor was in Doctor Who! (The Talons of Weng-Chiang)

thank you! We guessed that from watching the credits, but weren't sure. Kids thought he was horribly cute.

He was ridiculously cute!

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

absolutely! And I loved Scotty's exasperation with him

[http://users.livejournal.com/_medley_/]

Yes! Loved Scotty in general. And all the rest of them.

I felt sorry for Ensign Redshirt guy who went down to the drilling machine with Sulu and Kirk though

I know! Do not wear the red spacesuit!

although, at least he had a name, even if I don't remember it. As opposed to the random explodey crewmember extras

I couldn't stop laughing from the instant they said some random engineer was going with them, but I was in fits when they showed him wearing the red jumpsuit. I'm terrible, I know.

Seriously. Ah, the red shirt. Gotta love him.

It's a good thing I just sit at the back of the theater, anymore.

I actually wore a red shirt to the premiere, too...

when we went - 145 showing- it was sold out. I couldn't believe it. It's been out like a month, hasn't it?

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

That's impressive. Yeah, it's been out since early May.
