Star Trek 1x00 The Cage

I’m sure there’s a Trek novel somewhere that retcon’s that.

I love the retcon explaination of the James R. Kirk gravestone in Where No Man Has Gone Before in the My Brother’s Keeper novels.

first time I saw Meg Wylie in another role it freaked me the hell out

Look at the hand shadow puppets in the third cage past the flapping bird creature!

If this was BSG, Pike would destroy the zoo in a sucicide bomb attack.

Actually I forget which story, I think its ‘Spock’s World’, Spock says he was younger and less in control of his emotions when he served with Pike. Or was in the fan fiction ‘Strange New Worlds’ series.

Other end of the galaxy? Impressive.

Interesting.

Has anyone seen ‘Forbidden Planet’? It was used as template for the look and feel for the series.

I always loved that matte of the Rigel fortress

Never seen it. Good?

I love that matte painting of Rigel VII

It’s a beautiful matte, but so obviously a matte painting.

Which was?

Gengis KHAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

Strikes again!

Yes. You need to see that.

Leslie Neilson with the invisible monster, right?

Fascinating movie.

Young Gary Mitchell and Star Fleet Academy challenges Young Jim Kirk to play racquetball. And Kirk replies “Racquetball? Sure I’ll play you. ‘Racquetball’ is my middle name.”
Hence James R. Kirk.

Correctomundo!

We are, indeed, of the body.:wink:

“I have to wear something, don’t I?”

Bring on the Orion slave girl!!
