I think Spock's personality

I think Spock's personality can be explained in the original pilot - the non-Shatner pilot. The character was rather more emotional. Not having seen it, but based on what you wrote, it makes sense to me. Besides, Spock is half human and part of the issue was always wrestling with the two sides, but ultimately the two side making him "better" than the average Vulcan.

There was no way for Kirk to be in the film since he was dead and/or banished to that other world in that Next Generation/STOS film. Also, Shatner's personality/presence would have been too much. If you want to reboot the franchise, you go low key and I think Nimoy/Spock would have been the way to go. Spock's character was the only one who lived through the Next Generation era AND an actor who's still actually alive and with it. Again, makes total sense there.

I'd love to see the film, I just don't think I'll get the chance.
