Why post 1 when you can post 100!

Just cause everyone is posting animated gifs...and I love star trek.

Chapter 3 in motivation - cause it's been a sucky day so far

And as a bonus, here are some other funny pics that describe my day so far:

I touch myself--Star Trek style

Gandalf the Grey/White vs Captain Kirk

Alright, so now that Gandalf has beaten the crap out of Dumbledor, what if we go cross-genre and pit LOTR against the original Star Trek? Here are the results: AUTHORITY Gandalf commands a rag-tag group of adventurers. Captain Kirk commands a starship, which can fire all sorts of lasers and beams....

Naked Time!

Oh, The Naked Time, what a classic Trek episode. Problems start when the Enterprise checks out a non-responsive outpost and finds the entire crew dead. Not only are they dead, but they're doing weird stuff at the time of their deaths, like showering with their clothes on. This frightening scenario...

A US Life on Mars (LA pilot) critique

Life on Mars USA—well, let’s say it’s little wonder ABC wants it reshot and the leak is a great way to get comments from fans, many of whom have downloaded the unscreened pilot as made by David E. Kelley and directed by Thomas Schlamme. The storyline is identical to the original, which is not...

AI - Different models in SF Films/TV

(in addition to a previous post) There are two models when it comes to dealing with AI. The protagonist featured in "The Bicentennial Man" (based on a novel by Asimov based on his short story "The Positronic Man") is a positive approach to the problem, Frankenstein and Voyager's episode "The...

Where No Charlie X Has Gone Before

Because we're watching TOS in broadcast order we're seeing different episodes next to each other and it's already resulted in an interesting parallel. First a quick synopsis of each to refresh your memories. Charlie X was the story of a boy who was the sole survivor of a crew of humans at a very...

It's a Mystery, and I Don't like Mysteries.

We decided to watch the episodes broadcast order. In all previous viewings we watched production order, so this will be an interesting departure. The Man Trap Kirk, McCoy and a soon-to-be-unfortunate crewman beam down to a small scientific outpost that happens to be manned by an old flame of McCoy's...

Don't Hurt Them...They Don't Mean to be Evil

Last night we began our ambitious Star Trek project. We started with the original, un-aired pilot, The Cage, one of my all-time favorite episodes. I've talked a bit about The Cage before. I still maintain that Pike would have made a better captain for the series (although then we'd miss out on those...

Imagining the Apocalypse

A class taught by me at UCSD Extension - Fall 08. This class will give a general introduction into the Apocalyptic Literature, and present religious and secular visions of the end of days: from various books of the Bible to classic literature and works of Science Fiction (literature, TV series and...

A Star Trek tribute -- with breasts

It's been a rough few weeks for Star Trek fans. Alexander Courage died; he wrote that French-horn laden music for the original Star Trek series, the one that Shatner talks over at the beginning of every episode. Around the same time, Joseph Pevney died; he directed, among some 14 episodes, "The...

BBC and Star Trek

According to the Star Trek Fan site memory-alpha the BBC was the first-run broadcaster of Star Trek (12 July 1969-15 December 1971) and TNG (26 September 1990-6 May 1992, up to "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II"). After 1992, the first-run rights of TNG – and later DS9 and Voyager – went to Sky...

Oh, Criminy! It's June already!

Shatner. Animated. Singing.

Artificial Intelligence in Sci-Fi

Contemporary SciFi productions are populated with creations endowed with Artificial Intelligence, whether they are smart software or more complex entities such as Robots and Androids. Many of them also show human behavior and signs of self-awareness and emotional complexity which they - more often...
