    What an iconic character Spock was/is. I'm always kind of startled when I see Leonard Nimoy in another role.
    RIP Mr. Spock. :disappointed:

    ^^^ That and I think I watched every episode of In Search Of growing up. Big Foot, the Loch Ness Monster, UFOs, voodoo, Easter Island. Fascinating. RIP Mr. Nimoy

    Oh man. :frowning:

    What a fascinating man, one of the best Sci Fi characters ever, a fine actor, poet and writer, and good soul.

    R.I.P. Mr. Nimoy.

    New movie out this summer. Apparently even Simon Peg was shocked by the trailer(he co-wrote the movie):

    they asked him about his reaction to the Star Trek trailer. Peg looked a little flustered before responding, “It was very action packed, I didn’t…uh…yeah…it was surprising. I find it to be the marketing people saying, ‘everybody come and see this film, it’s full of action and fun,’ when there’s a lot more to it than that. I didn’t love it, because I know there’s a lot more to the film.”

    Can't wait to see it! It's put in 3D, isn't it?
    These newest generation star trek movies are so fantastic!

    Only way I'm cool with this is he say he is gonna make an 11th film as well.

    Although it will be interesting to see the crew of the enterprise drop a 134 N-bombs throughout the film

    This could be the Covid talking, but so far, Strange New Worlds is great.

    I'm a gigantic Next Generation fan (like 1000% nerd-level), but I've never been able to connect with any other Star Trek series before Strange New Worlds, which is pretty entertaining. I also like the newest movies with Chris Pine a lot, but as far as the TV shows go, before SNW, I feel like they are all basically terrible when compared to TNG. I am attempting to enjoy Deep Space Nine right now, and the only things I like about ot are directly connected to TNG, like Niles O'Brian, Vash, Q, Picard, etc. The Commander on DS9 is a horrible actor. Not to mention the fact that they recycled some actors from TNG as totally different characters. That's really lame (although I guess I'm glad the actors got the jobs).
    I have no real point.... I'm just sad I can't enjoy any of the shows after the perfection of TNG. :(
