This Friday marked the 46 year anniversary of the airing of the first STAR TREK episode marked by google and many others.

Here is one opinion on the Top 10 Episodes of the Original series. Yours?

Will the Message Board die like a "Red Shirt"? If so, it's "the most interesting red shirt in the world!" Wink

Charlie X just couldn't stand losing, as Sam finds out the hard way!

This gives me an idea. If the powers that be want to make this board unceremoniously go away like a bunch of Red Shirts, we should change our profile pics in protest. Who'se with me?

Pick your favorite dead red shirt here:

I'm in, but there is only one female dead red shirt to choose from. So much for equality on Star Trek.

it's a safe bet that 2 star trek villains/hero's will be re imagined in st2 . my guess is gary mitchell and harry mudd.


While nobody is listed as Harry Mudd, there is a clue that supports the theory. Alice Eve (MIB3) plays an untitled character, as does Indian beauty Nanzeen Contractor, plus twins Kellie and Katie Cockerel have been cast as "sexy girl #1 and #2. Could a re-imagined subplot loosely based on "Mudd's Women" be in there somewhere?

They couldn't put it on the interwebs if it wasn't true!

http://www.eonline.com/news/351450/star-trek-sequel-s-enterprise-is-filled-with-... (no real spoilers unless you don't know that "Lincoln" is non-fiction.-RF)

Quote:
Get Those Motherf--king Snakes Off the Motherf--king Enterprise

Get ready for Samuel L. Jackson cussing up a storm in J.J. Abrams' much-anticipated Star Trek sequel.

OK, maybe not, but John Cho's imagination went into overdrive when we recently asked him to tell us something—even the tiniest morsel of info—about the movie, officially called Star Trek Into Darkness.

"Yup, we shot it," Cho smiled. "The Enterprise is filled with snakes, and we have to land it pretty quickly before all the passengers go nuts."

Cho, who plays Sulu, quickly apologized. "We can't talk about J.J.'s projects," he said. "He has implanted a bomb in my heart. If I was to spill, I'd be dead."

Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays the villain in the movie, prefers keeping everything a secret. "We live in a culture where there's so much pluralistic overkill and trailers tell you the whole plot of things," he says. "There's so much that isn't left to anticipation when you walk into that theater. You always know what you're going to get."


Cho sounds like a true successor to the wisecracking Geroge Takei.

The Sc-fi London (27 April -6 May) site has a Star Trek: Into Darkness 3D article
Quote:
After the screening, which was introduced by amusing clips from JJ Abrams and Simon Pegg, there was a short Q&A with producer Alex Kurtzman, and actors Alice Eve, who revealed she is playing Dr. Carol Marcus, and Benedict Cumberbatch, who was on fine form for such an early hour in the morning, who announced that he is not playing the much-rumoured Khan, but a terrorist call John Harrison "who does despicable things for a noble cause", which is surely the modus operandi of all terrorists/freedom fighters.


plus a trailer in German.

http://www.sci-fi-london.com/news/cinema/2012/12/star-trek-darkness-0

The german voiceover is as non-descript as the fight-heavy images.

They too have added a quiz:
