Star Trek

Nov

I wouldn’t call myself a trekkie, but I have always been a fan of Star Trek. I loved the original series, I have seen most of the movies, and I watched a lot of Star Trek: The Next Generation. It really ends there though, any Star Trek series after TNG just didn’t blow my skirt up a whole lot.

I saw the new movie that is about to come out on DVD Star Trek (Three-Disc +Digital Copy) [Blu-ray] (I am nearly wetting myself, I am so excited) and I absolutely love it! I went to the midnight showing, that is some serious stuff.

This past weekend I checked out a new Star Trek exhibit that just opened down the street from me in Hollywood. I was sort of hoping that it was the old Star Trek exhibit from the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas. No such luck, but it was awesome anyway. Did I mention they sold toy tribbles as souvenirs? Let me just vent for a moment. I still can’t believe they closed down that exhibit in Las Vegas. It’s not like they put anything else in it’s place, and now the only place that Trekkies can gather is at a convention. They even had a Star Trek ride in there, it was like Star Tours in Disneyland, but with Captain Picard.

I’m just glad they opened the exhibit that I went to on Sunday, it was full of Costumes from the show and the new movie. You could even sit on the U.S.S. Enterprise (well the set at least) from Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Here I am with Spock, that’s Mr. Spock by the way, not Dr. Spock. Dr. Spock is that famous child psychologist. Common misconception. Spock is one of my favorite Star Trek characters, he and Scotty are pretty much tied.
