Star Trek revisited...

Feb 19, 2011 23:02

Decided to re-watch the Star Trek films in order. It's been some time since I've seen them, and I never did watch the last two Next Gen films. Here's a few quick thoughts:

Star Trek: The Motion Picture: Not as bad as I remembered, but I can see why I fell asleep in the theater in 1979. Dull, extremely poorly paced, and suffers horribly from ( Read more... )

Hey, who didn't love & lust for the older Scotty? He grown out to be one hot Papa Bear.

"When Worf explains there are already Klingons there, the others look around confused and then look to him for an explanation, and he says: "It was a long time ago, and we do not discuss it with outsiders!"

Most folks hate Enterprise, but, it was in that show's fourth & final season where we find out just why the Klingons of the Kirk - era looked so much different from the Worf - era Klingons.

I agree about Scotty.. liked him more and more when
he put on some weight.

He was a HOT man.. and, a very nice man, from what I have read & heard about him. I wish I could have met and talked with him.. just once.

I tried to post the entire article here, but it's too long - you'll have to go here:

And find out why!

It's long winded, but is an excellent article!

Much as there isn't character interaction in TMP, I think there are important character moments. Kirk realizes he's getting old in a more subtle way than in TWoK, while Spock experiences what I consider his most important revelation of all: " And yet with all its pure logic, V'ger is barren. Cold. No mystery, no beauty. This simple feeling is beyond V'ger's comprehension."

Compared to the "simple feeling" scene, I find his dying moment in TWoK over-the-top.

I agree with what you said about Roddenberry. Ok, he was the creator, but a terrible writer indeed.
I also agree with what you say about the first two movies. alright, the second was a cheap production, but it's enjoyable nonetheless.
hmmm, the mature Scotty is so damn sexy!!!

I am looking forward for your next reviews, I am sure there's gonna be something I won't agree with. :-)
