Star Trek - Series and Films

So I just watched Into Darkness. I didn't like it as much as the first reboot but still enjoyed it. Being a new fan to the series, I still haven't seen the originals yet. Here is my noob question:

Spoiler: why did they need to use Khan's blood exclusively to revive Kirk? They had 72 other superhumans onboard the ship. Wouldn't their blood be just as good as Khan's?

Spoiler: Starfleet should start milking those guys' blood and give vials to every officer. They'd be like health power ups in video games.
I recently watched Nemesis and don't think its that bad. I would actually qualify it as 'good'. Am I a blasphemer, and should I burn myself in penance?

I watched Nemesis recently and don't think its that bad. I would actually describe it as 'good'. Am I a bad Trekkie? Should I convince myself to hate it?

It didn't take hardly any convincing for me to hate it past thinking to myself, "God, this movie is fucking awful."

Having watched/rewatched 1-10 recently, Nemesis is not as bad as the internets claim it is. Personally, I think Insurrection is way worse. Nemesis fails at most of what it tries, but at least it's trying something. I don't understand what they were thinking with Insurrection. On no level does that story compel. Think about the title, even. What could possibly make the Enterprise rebel against Starfleet? The answer, turns out, would bore you to tears. And not make sense.

That was just a plot hole.
