By now I think it's safe to say that most DS9 fans as well as a lot of hardcore Trek fans in general know that Quark and two Dabo girls from the station were in a Deleted Scene from the very end of INS and that the scene was not only scripted but actually shot with Armin Shimerman in full makeup...
Tomorrow - December 9th - marks exactly 20 years since NEM received its world premiere in Los Angeles. As of tomorrow the end of the Classic TNG Era will be 20 years behind us and now would be as good a time as any to look back on the film and evaluate how it's fared as both a standing story and...
Tonight marks 50 years to the day since a Dan Curtis-produced TV-movie named The Night Stalker aired on ABC in the United States. January 11, 1972 saw the birth of an influential character in pop culture, the zealous and excited investigative reporter for a wire service named Carl Kolchak(played...
I just found this compilation video from "The Way of the Warrior" and other episodes posted on YouTube and the creator upgraded the original 1995/96 footage up to 5K standard. I wanted to share and get feedback on the job they did because while I think the footage looks more colorful, sharper...
As I type and post this new thread the date where I am located is September 26, 2021, twenty years to the day since ENT premiered on UPN. As the fifth and final series in the "Classic" Era of Trek(sixth if we count TAS) reaches its 20th Anniversary what are your thoughts on the show's original...
Jessie Gender posted a fantastic analysis of the command styles of both Jonathan Archer and Christopher Pike back in January and I missed the video until now. It's a fascinating video that shows how both characters represent the wonder of exploration and a warm relationship with one's crew more...
For those DS9 and other Siddig television and film project fans who may or may not be aware, Sid's been hosting Zoom meetings with fans and late last month Andrew Robinson participated. I highly recommend watching or even subscribing to the Sid City YouTube account to follow Siddig's videos with...
The official Twitter account of Kol and other Klingons actor Kenneth Mitchell has posted as part of its cover photo a quote from Kol in Season 1 that says: "All I see is another attempt by humanity to rob us of our identity." This struck me in a way no other dialogue from Kol has that I can...
For me part of the fun of watching TOS-Remastered both when the episodes were new and now is to spot both new additions as well as things I may have overlooked the first time around but spotted during later viewings. There were frequently new little details retconned into the classic episodes...
Today - January 8th - marks 25 years since "Past Tense, Part I" was first aired and introduced audiences to Sanctuary Districts and the horror of the Bell Riots, giving Trek arguably its greatest and most impactful piece of social commentary in the history of the franchise. In the narrative of...
We all know some if not a lot of us are going to be watching for continuity to be honored as closely as possible given that this is set post-NEM and appears to not visually reboot the late 24th century even remotely as much as DSC did the pre-TOS Era of Starfleet. So far it looks like longtime...
December 19th marks 50 years to the day since the George Lazenby 007 film On Her Majesty's Secret Service had its world premiere to controversy and decidedly mixed reactions from both James Bond fans and critics. Lambasted at the time for not having Sean Connery as Bond and stirring tabloid...
Today(May 19th) marks exactly 20 years to the day since Episode I: The Phantom Menace was released in theaters after arguably the greatest buildup of anticipation for a new movie in the history of cinema. And yes, I'm including the excitement leading up to the release of Avengers: Endgame. ;)...
I'm sure more than a few of you are familiar with the famous episode of Tom Synder's Tomorrow that was taped in or around February of 1976 and featured DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, Walter Koenig and Harlan Ellison discussing the cultural phenomenon of TOS when the series was becoming a global...
Hey guys! I don't venture into the Fan Productions forum very often but over the past ten months or so I've been collaborating with the writers and producers at Potemkin Productions in north Georgia near Atlanta to screenwrite films for their myriad series of fan productions, of which there are...
I'm pretty sure at least some of you have seen this bonus material that was included on a disc in one of the DVD or Blu ray box sets but it was one I'd either forgotten watching over the past few years or completely overlooked when it was first released. This is probably the longest sit-down...
ENT premiered 15 years ago this coming evening on UPN with "Broken Bow" launching the series on its four-year run and scoring the highest-ever ratings for the show. The debut came just a little more than two weeks after the terror attacks of 9/11 and the prequel series will always be associated...
They can be major and lead characters from the Original Trilogy and even predating those films in the timeline or supporting characters that you liked in previous movies and will enjoy seeing again (or hope have been written into the script even if no official announcements have been made that...
Some of you who've been posting for a number of years and know me may have noticed during that time that I'm a colossal and devoted fan of Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1988-99) and have made more than my share of posts and random comments about both the series and its characters. There are...
Tonight (May 13, 2015) marks precisely 10 years to the night since both "Terra Prime" and "TATV" aired and not only did Enterprise come to an end after a four-year run but the Star Trek television franchise officially went to sleep and began its current hibernation.
A million things both good...
