I will not fight for Starfleet. But I will defend its ideals. Pacifism is not passivity. It’s the active protection of all living things in the natural universe. - Hemmer
The older I've gotten, the more I've come to understand and comprehend the central premise of Star Trek: The Motion Picture: "Is this all that I am? Is there nothing more?" Also, watch the 4K Director's Edition if you've never seen the movie before. It is the most accessible (and best) version.🖖🏿
Star Trek: The Motion Picture was released 46 years ago today.

This film is truly unique within this franchise. I understand that it may not be the most accessible, but I love its tension, mystery, atmosphere, and curiosity.

I love that David Ellison is whining about a rigged process, when his main justification for Paramount acquiring WBD is that it would have "better regulatory odds" than its competitors. In other words, we've already blown our money bribing Trump, so we should get some benefit from that.

The day serves well for them now. I have heard it said, the fittest time to corrupt a man's wife is when she's fallen out with her husband.

Star Trek dodged a major bullet when Tarantino's Kelvinverse version of "A Piece of the Action" never came to pass. There is/was no need for Tarantino to be involved in Star Trek.
While I'm happy folks are finally telling Tarantino to go fuck himself, am I the only one that finds it bizarre it took saying he thought great actors were bad actually to be like "Wait, this guy sucks" and not the fact that he nearly got Uma Thurman killed?

Just a thought.

Trekkies: If you see this, post your first experience with Star Trek.

My dad had a VHS recording of the 1985 ABC Movie of the Week version of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan." I watched the Botany Bay scene when I was way too young and it still disgusts me even to this day!

I have absolutely zero questions as to how and/or why a Jem'Hadar woman exists. The only thing that matters is that she fucking rocks.

I love the convenience of streaming, but for any movie or show that I really love, I want to own a physical copy. The quality often better, and it is much less likely to disappear suddenly if a license expires or a company merges out of business. And disks often have cool extras.

So, Larry Ellison likes to give leadership roles to sexual abusers like his idol, Trump? Not surprising, but still BS that this person owns Star Trek.
Feelings Don’t Matter: How the Ellison Era Is Transforming Paramount
It’s a brand-new day at the legacy studio, where prestige films are out, testosterone-heavy tentpoles are in and Brett Ratner is back on the call sheet.

“That the human race is improving; that we have things to be proud of as humans. No, ancient astronauts did not build the pyramids — human beings built them, because they’re clever and they work hard. And Star Trek is about those things.”

I still believe in Gene Roddenberry's vision for the future.

I see that the cowards at Paramount Plus didn't have the honor to show the Klingon in his skirt!

"Like so many people around the world, I will never forget the moment that Erika Kirk forgave her husband’s killer."

Please help me to understand why a Jewish lesbian is helping these fucking Nazis! Also, if you pay for Paramount Plus, you are directly supporting this propaganda bullshit.
CBS staffers rip ‘shallow’ Bari Weiss for moderating ‘absurd’ Erika Kirk town hall
‘How embarrassing,’ one network staffer told The Independent. ‘Bari’s been Editor-in-Chief for five seconds and has revealed that all she really wants is to be on TV herself.’
