News

Correction from last week: The DSC S2 Blu-ray is only 1080P.

Noah Hawley in talks to write & direct Trek 4 of the JJ Verse. I’d rather have a Pike movie with Anson Mount.

DSC S2 Blu-ray includes 6 minutes of deleted scenes from “Through the Valley of Shadows”.

Ten Forward:

Star Trek in pop culture:

1987 American Movie Awards. “Spitting Image” characature puppet of Leonard Nimoy. Though the voice is more like Shatner.
