It wasn't, but much of the box office was existing demand that was lost by the movie's poor quality. Batman v. Superman and The Last Jedi had similar places in their own series. (My mother was actually an example of this: having grown up watching TOS and TAS, she was so bored by The Motion...

There was also a Power Records adventure with a short accompanying comic (later re-released on cassette):

Aside from a handful of remaining Ticonderoga-class cruisers and three Zumwalt-class, all of the U.S. Navy's major surface combatants (a category that excludes aircraft carriers and amphibious ships) are members of the Arleigh Burke class (classified as a destroyer, but functionally a light...

As much as this has been litigated before, I think that most people don't realize how close a match Kirk's promotion timeline is for Stephen Decatur's. The son of a famed Continental Navy officer, Decatur was appointed as a midshipman in 1798, made a lieutenant roughly a year later, and...

I suspect that Mayweather was mostly an accident. When the crew was developed (or borrowed from Galaxy Quest and reworked), I don't think the creators realized that his interesting traits were shared with Archer (piloting) and T'Pol (experience). And Trip, as a senior officer, was a more natural...

Only the first three Doctors and the "NuWho" era count, but Tom Baker was the Fourth Doctor, and he spent part of his travels with Romana. The Twelfth (Fourteenth?) Doctor regenerated as Tilda Swinton. She was delighted to finally be a ginger.

IIRC, the last needle for the (ancient) specialized machine they were using for the quilting broke. It does happen in reality, strangely enough. The US Navy's enlisted wore the same dungaree working uniform from 1913 to 1999 (aside from a brief, maligned experiment with a different shirt in...

They seemed to have kept TMP colors instead, switching engineering's red for TOS command gold (and reuniting it with operations), and putting non-captain command personnel (and science) in TMP's gray. The US Navy went through a similarly short-lived period of (loathed) non-traditional uniforms...

One of the things I like about the Monster Maroons is how grounded they are in Star Trek's three previous styles. The ensemble is basically: "The Cage"/"Where No Man Has Gone Before" shirts (unisex) "The Cage" jackets in red (with fancy devices and closures) TOS trousers (with piping) TMP...

A Gen Z member I know, who started with the Kelvin movies, then binge-watched TNG, Voyager, and the first ten movies, summed up her reaction to Nemesis as "No one should watch that movie ever again."

My Star Trek reading mostly didn't survive the post-Destiny era, but I've been able to complete my collections of DS9 relaunch, Vanguard , Pike-era (non-SNW), and Diane Duane ebooks thanks to Simon & Schuster's monthly sales. I think Harm's Way and The Unsettling Stars are the only titles I'm...

I came across this thread while looking for an answer to a similar question, and the next link happened to be a 2016 Publisher's Weekly article that offered an estimate for all Star Trek publications: That places Star Trek in the same tier as Winnie-the-Pooh or A Series of Unfortunate Events...

After today's revelations, I'd like to get Morgan Freeman out of my head when I re-read Vanguard. Does anyone have a different actor in mind for Zeke Fisher?

I read a claim that the Avenger classification for the Reliant was derived from Khan's dialogue in the film ("I mean to avenge myself upon you, Admiral" and "I shall avenge you."), but I don't know if there's any truth to that. It doesn't seem to have originated with production sources, though...

I tend to think that Colonel was his first name, like Gouverneur Morris or the surprising number of people named Major (one was even a Major General).

Andrew Robinson's depiction of Garak's youth in A Stitch in Time is very much part of how I understand the character and his world. It's hard to imagine him without Palandine or his time at Bamarren. In broad outline, I tend to think of Diane Duane's version of Romulan society and history. I...

Apparently, a few weeks ago, Takei was asked (on the Howard Stern radio show) about whether he had ever committed sexual assault: NSFW language audio. What he describes seems (to me) to be consistent with Mr. Brunton's account.

I always understood "Desert Crossing" to mean that the U.S. survived the war: The number of surviving American cities seems to suggest that as well. In addition to San Francisco, there are references to: Anchorage (Trip visited there as a child) Atlanta (McCoy's birthplace) Bloomington...

It looks like some prices have updated again. $0.99 TOS Shadows on the Sun $1.99 New Frontier Treason Blind Man's Bluff $2.99 From Sawdust to Stardust (DeForest Kelley Biography) TOS Mind Meld Rihannsu: The Empty Chair Unspoken Truth A Choice of Catastrophes The Weight of Worlds DS9 Twist...

Sorry, they are indeed U.S. prices only (I don't know an efficient way of searching other iBooks stores). It looks like Rosetta did drop a little in Germany (to €19.99), but not by so much.
