saw really good star trek

he put . . . creatures . . . in our bodies . . . to make us tell lies

gallivanting around the cosmos is a game for the young, Lieutenant

George: What were you saying to the Rosses over there, anyway?

Jerry: Oh, I don't know. I told them her death takes place in the shadow of new life. She's not really dead if we find a way to remember her.

George: What is that?

Jerry: Star Trek II.

George: (identifying it) Wrath of Khan!

Jerry: Right. Kramer and I saw it last night. Spock dies, they wrap him up in a towel, and they shoot him out the bowel of the ship in that big sunglasses case.

George: That was a hell of a thing when Spock died...

Jerry: Yeah...

[For a brief moment, the two become overwhelmed with emotion.]

Stan: Right as Jesus was dying he raised his hand and said, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."

Randy: You're right, Stanley. You're absolutely right. Hey, that Bible sounds like kind of a good book.

Stan: It ain't bad. You should try reading it some time.

Kyle: Dude, that was "Star Trek" again! "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" — that was Wrath of Khan!

UGH

"assignment earth" is terrible. no wonder they never made a gary seven show.

also no wonder "leonard six" sucked so bad.

there is some TREMENDOUS acting in "all our tomorrows"

sorry, i mean "return to tomorrow"

i have no idea what "all our tomorrows" is

kirk has like three mega-monologues, including one where he goes "RISK ... IS ... OUR ... BUSINESS!!!" which i plan to use at a conference talk someday

**The huge hand keeping the Enterprise from moving in the beginning of this episode is, in fact, Gene Roddenberry's.

In Peter David's Star Trek: New Frontier, character Mark McHenry is a descendant of the child of Apollo and Carolyn Palamas (revealed to have been impregnated during the events of this episode), and has at least some of the Apollo's powers.

Randy: You're right, Stanley. You're absolutely right. Hey, that Bible sounds like kind of a good book.

Stan: It ain't bad. You should try reading it some time.

Hell, I keep forgetting where they got that exchange from. I've heard the "it ain't bad..." bit like once or twice before.

I wonder how many of Shatner's 3 Star Trek memoirs are owned by ian

and what is right, wrath of khan really is the best movie ever.

i was thinking this morning about the episode where kirk fights the guy (trelane? i think that was it) who seems ridiculously menacing and all-powerful but in the end turns out to be a spoiled kid from some Q-like omnipotent race. the way kirk intimidates him in the last scene, before he's even learned the "secret" ("you've got a lot to learn about living...in fact, you've gotta lot to learn about EVERYTHING, haven't you?") is fucking awesome.

That'd be "The Squire of Gothos," featuring one William Campbell as Trelane, who also played a Klingon on "The Trouble With Tribbles."

"You will hang by the neck, Captain, until you are dead, dead, dead!"

Also had a great ending where he dissolves from sight as he is taken back by his alien parents while repeating "I would've won, I WOULD have," reminiscent of the same kind of ending to "Charlie X," with Charlie last words before fading being "I wanna stay...stay...stay."

"why all the . . . mumbojumbo?"

My dad knew William Campbell as a youth in Newark, NJ. (He's also the star of Francis Coppola's first film.)

There seems to be a bunch of those. I like the (Mego Version).

One where Spock defeats a computer inhabited by the soul of jack the ripper by asking it to compute the value of pi.

"trill niggas don't die"

watching the original series in order here: http://www.cbs.com/classics/star_trek/video/video.php. have maybe seen 10% of these.

s01e01 - The Man Trap (hairy salt monster)
Uhura flirting with Spock was good. Kirk excellent. Leonard Nimoy pretty handsome back then. Moral: remember what happened to the the buffalo. 6/10.
Hottest girl:

s01e02 - Charlie X (weird kid with telekenetic powers)

Charlie's face when using powers is excellent. Kirk removes shirt for first time. Uhura's singing voice is hilarious (and hot). 6/10.

only good episode was next generation. i don't know the episode name, i was 14. this historian from the future travels backwards through time to watch picard do some serious shit. guy keeps laughing at them like no way imma ruin the moment, major history in the making,. it turns out he was some nj guido who stabbed a time travel machine creator in the 1990s and actually went forward in time to jack Data for resale.

good twist.
