You've totally out-cooled yourself here, dude!
I'm astounded.

Thanks, Yes I have always wanted to know what it appeared like when they (Kirk and crew) talked on the bridge about taking evasive maneuvers . . . words simply did not do such actions any real justice, they really needed to show the nimbleness of the Enterprise out is space as she dipped and spun around avoiding a photon torpedo here and firing a killer phaser shot there. That is kind of what was on my mind when I put this image together.
 
I started watching Star Trek on NBC in 1966. My grandpa used to give my mom 10 cents every Saturday morning to go to the movies in the 1930's and 1940's; and I can't picture her expecting me to love the icons of her youth.

It so happened that I ate a bowl of Frosted Flakes and watched reruns of Cisco Kid, Gene Autry and Hopalong Cassidy on TV at 6 a.m. every Saturday morning myself in the 1950's and 1960's; so now I do still love those icons.

But if someone of the STNG generation can't get into TOS, I wouldn't have a hard time understanding why. They don't need to knock it, but that's more than likely in response to having it thrown in their faces all the time.
