    Trek & The Election Results

    I've decided that a good distraction from the election results would be to throw myself into a day of Trek watching... No matter what outcome you supported, nor how you feel about the results either way, red or blue, Trek has always been about the future... moving forward, hope in a million...

    The "re-imagining" of TOS

    From recent news and comments that's most likely what I'm guessing Discovery will be. It will be a mashup of everything Classic Trek and then some. It will essentially be what the Kelvin Timeline tried to be but didn't achieve - a "have your cake and eat it too" approach to Trek. The producers...

    Behind the scenes footage from TWOK

    In this clip from an episode of Entertainment Tonight, broadcast in 2002 (promoting Nemesis) they take a look back at the other Trek films and low and behold around the 13:28 mark there is some cool behind the scenes footage from the filming of TWOK with Montalban on the Reliant bridge and few...

    Vintage ET clip of TNG set construction

    Just found this great old clip of Entertainment Tonight from back in 1987. I had this recorded on some old VHS tape back in the day, but some other great soul posted it for us. You can see what the movie bridge looked like from the outside, with it's walls ripped off before they turned it into...

    Great vintage interviews with Gene Roddenberry

    Two great video clips... one from 1982 and the other, an unedited interview that was partially used in a 1988 special on TNG. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIUAkbYgauM http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1fpb6_gene-roddenberry-interview_fun These contain more than a few prophetic statements by...

    TMP Screening at American Cinematheque in LA

    Just got back from seeing TMP for the first time on the big screen. I had never seen it before in a theater. I have to say, even though I love the film and enjoy it when I watch it, it is a real chore to sit through in a theater. So plodding that you can't help but fidgit in your seat when...

    Of Vulcan Heads...

    I'm searching around for a behind the scenes photo I recall seeing. It was from one of the Trek films (probably TSFS) and it clearly showed a large, full size statue of a Vulcan head on one of the sets. I had thought for a long time that it was a full-scale prop built for TMP in the scene where...

    Old ET clip from the set of Trek II

    Interesting artifact from way back in 82. Meyer's comments always seem to crack me up. And Takei's last thought turned out to be prophetic... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiI1t_wIamU

    Complete text of Piller's unpublished "Writing of Insurrection" online

    From TrekCore http://www.trekcore.com/ I'm halfway through and it's got some amazing insights. A great study on how that film came to be what it was... and a peek inside the mind of a professional TV screenwriter in a unique situation. Especially interesting are Patrick Stewart's notes on...

    The first announcement of TNG...

    From way back in October of 1986, the first official word in the press that Trek was coming back: http://tinyurl.com/246nkbc The most interesting quote from Gene Roddenberry: ""I want to treat the whole problem of terrorists. I don't think that's ever been treated in depth" Seemed to be ahead...

    Trek III Expanded Score vs Trek (2009) Deluxe Soundtrack

    Just got both of them today, listened to them back to back and was really surprised how Horner's score totally blew me away when compared to Giacchino's. I haven't watched either film recently but as far as the albums go, even though the 2009 Trek score features much more music, most of the...

    "Datalore" Music

    Datalore was on tonight and I could swear that a section of the score (as the away team enters Soong's lab) is lifted straight from Jerry Goldsmith's music for Alien. It's obviously been re-orchestrated and re-recorded but the music is surprisingly similar. The majority of the episode score...

    Alternate (but still canon) Timeline

    http://www.aintitcool.com/node/33832 This was a leaked report on AICN last year. Now that we've gotten a taste of what this movie could be about. Is it possible that all of the "canon mistakes" are going to be explained this way? If the timeline is altered at the start of this film (Kelvin)...

    The Alternative (Abrams) Factor

    There has been a lot of discussion (probably spread over various threads) about JJ’s vision for this film and his interpretation of Trek as a whole. If you look through the various comments he’s given in different interviews, and judging from the descriptions of scenes that have come out, it’s...

    Engine room set evolution

    Has anyone done a comparison or evolution of the Enterprise engine room set from the Phase II configuration, through Voyager? I find it fascinating to study screen caps and photos of the various incarnations of this set and see how it was artfully altered to represent the various ships...

    TMP Bridge Set

    Does anyone know what happened to the bridge chairs from TMP? I believe the last time they were seen on screen was in the first season of TNG way back in 87. I can't recall if they were featured in the Christie's auction or not and I'd like to hope that some of them found their way into...

    Extended Scores

    Trek V was on last night and regardless of what you may think of the film itself, Goldsmith's score is amazing. I had forgotten how many new themes were created for this film (in addition to expanding upon his earlier work) The soundtrack for TFF is missing a lot of the best stuff -- actually...

    Shatner

    Does it worry anybody else that it seems like Abrams and company developed the story and script for the new movie with the concept of having the older Spock character (Nimoy) involved in the plot but not Kirk/Shatner? The comments that they are now "trying to find a way to fit Kirk in" after...

    Trek VI Trailer Music

    I was watching the TUC theatrical trailer on YouTube recently (the second trailer with footage from the film) and I was reminded that the music in the trailer is very different from any of the tracks that were composed by Eidelman for the final film. The trailer version of the "overture" is a...
