BONES: No, I'm good, but not that good. There's something inside this man that refuses to accept death. Look at that. Even as he is now, his heart valve action has twice the power of yours and mine. Lung efficiency is fifty percent better.
(McGivers enters)
BONES: He'll die in seconds if we don't.
(Kirk uses something metal in his hand to break the glass and open the compartment. The man is slid out on a trolley, gasping and awake. He tries to speak.)
MARLA: I've seen old photographs of this. Necessary because of the time involved in space travel until about the year 2018. It took years just to travel from one planet to another.
I guess it was a good guess that he would have a son who turned out to be a doctor.
Frankly, I don't think he only had one son though. I think he only had one son that he knew about.
I'm just one person and so maybe I'm just a fluke, but I became a convert after watching the new movie. I've now read a couple of star trek books, and I've seen all of TOS and a fair amount of TNG. So, while maybe not a large percent of people were converted by the new star trek movie, some...
I really, really liked it the first time I saw it. I've now seen the movie literally over 15 times and so I like it a little less. Especially since I'm now more knowledgeable about Star Trek, I can see a lot of flaws that I didn't see the first time. But I still like it. It's the kind of movie I...

Allow me to provide some.
Spock says to T'Pau, to explain why he is unwilling to fight Kirk, "I will do what I must, T'Pau, but not with him; his blood does not burn."
Is it too much to infer that Spock is saying that he wants to fight someone whose blood does burn, and that he'd be willing to...
I've read it. I thought it was interesting.
Listen, I'm not saying vulcans are flawless or that they don't make mistakes or that there aren't any parallels to human behavior. I'm saying that as a whole, I think vulcans represent what Roddenberry wanted more of in humans. Namely, logic and...
I think you make a valid point.
Of course, some species are more admirable than others.
The one episode I think you're using to define vulcans is "Amok Time." Hopefully you'll agree that it's unfair to define vulcans by ponfarr, when they're at their worst. It's repeated and emphasized like a...
