Oh man I'm gonna have to watch Final Frontier again before SNW season 2 aren't I? I forgot about the Sybok reveal The only bad thing about Strange New Worlds is making Final Frontier consequential to greater Trek lore lol
I love that the conception of IV The Voyage Home was Nimoy getting really into New Age Whalesong music.
I didn't like Voyage Home the first time I saw it,. But once you get past how very weird and tonally different it is than any other Star Trek film you start to really appreciate it.
I am watching the Star Trek The Motion Picture director's cut/remaster. The plot of this is still bleh, but goddamn is this movie beautiful to look at.
Ok onto Undiscovered Country which is my personal favorite original cast film. It is essentially proto-DS9 . A lot of the thematic concepts we later saw in DS9 were beta tested in this movie.
I am really interested to learn more about Pelia's race. The concept of a "secret race" of aliens who covertly lived among humans for centuries is really interesting. That concept has been explored in Marvel but never in Star Trek
Just watched the most recent SNW and think it’s safe to say this show is my favorite thing on TV right now
Also they announced at SDCC that the SNW/LD crossover episode is getting shadowdropped today at 7pmEST
