Ah, darn, I guess we can't watch Star Trek VI anymore now that the Creator hath spoken. Actually, I suppose we are limited to only the Roddenberry-penned episodes of TOS, throw in TMP and the first...

That's an awful big expectation for the first time out. I'm hoping for Batman Begins sized numbers this time around. Of course, I hope you're right, however (assuming the movie turns out to deserve...

Probably not enough time has passed. Give it another ten years and someone will look back fondly on your generation's shows.
However, I must point out that Fraggle Rock was also from the 1980s, and...

I envy you that. It would've been so cool to watch Star Trek, Get Smart, etc. when they were brand new. The closest I can get to that feeling is watching the...

Judging the movies against others of their same time periods, I have to go with Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan for best effects. A few of the effects of Star Trek II were lifted from Star Trek: The...

Nice thread. For me, great quotes have always been part of the fun of Star Trek. I'm looking forward to more great quotes once May 8, 2009, rolls around.
As for current favorites, it's impossible...

Oddly, though I was never really much of a Star Trek: Voyager fan, I have to go out on a limb here and pick Torres on this one.
As someone who is primarily a TOS fan, I eventually tired of Scotty's...

For 2008, Star Trek was the movie I was most looking forward to seeing. Looks like that'll have to wait until 2009. If that means a better movie, then I don't mind the extra wait.
Assuming they...

When he scored The Wrath of Khan, Horner had mainly only done B-movie and TV-movie music. Yet, he managed to write a score that, twenty-six years later, many people, including both you and me,...

If Bennett, Nimoy, Shatner, and various others are to be believed, Roddenberry was also against the plots of Star Treks II, III, IV, V, and VI as well, though. And yeah, perhaps he was right on V,...

Regardless of whether or not he later abandoned the concept, I still think it's interesting that Roddenberry considered not only a movie, but a prequel at such an early stage of Star Trek's life. As...

Confirmed. It's page 155 in the US version. The authors don't give an exact GR quote, unfortunately. I think the Reeves-Stevens are reliable, though. Great find, by the way!
