Wiz HIGHLY RECOMMENDS Star Trek (2009) The reboot of Star Trek was my first experience with the franchise. Not sure exactly what brought me to give it a chance, but I ended up liking the film for it's good action, characters and charm. Nothing special but definitely good. After watching the films based on The Original Series and The Next Generation, I was actually surprised how much more I liked it from my first viewing. Firstly, it's actually incredibly impressive how right the casting was for this movie. Every character, from Kirk and Spock to Chekov and Scotty, has the right look and person portraying the character with the right twist to differentiate itself from the original cast. What also was done incredibly well was the differences in character development. Kirk's arc is pretty typical: rebel who is ignored and held back until he proves himself worthy of his station. Bones plays the sidekick but he's much more sarcastic and negative. But the portrayal of Spock by Zachary Quinto was incredibly well done. Leonard Nimoy in the movies seemed to not struggle so much with his human side: he almost seemed inflapable. But the way young Spock is written, as well as portrayed by Quinto, shows the actual struggle of being half Vulcan and Human, leading to very interesting developments in his character and making him feel much more identifiable. And what also works very well is Nimoy as Ambassador Spock. To have Nimoy as old Spock would be a shaky move, but they do one thing with his character that's a great move: make him more expressive. It sounds odd, but having Nimoy as Spock smile expressively (with his teeth, mind you!) is actually a great sign of character growth that makes his Spock seem more interesting. This film also uses the formula of the best Star Trek films: a great mix of humor, action and drama spread incredibly well. All of the characters have their moments of comedy and drama which makes attaching yourself to them even easier. Finally, the visuals and special effects are excellent. The action in the movie, whether it's hand-to-hand or ship combat, is exciting and fun. Whether it's the landscapes of planets or ships, locations look great as the film is moving forward... ...except for the actual Enterprise. I'm not sure why this decision was made, but why is the Enterprise so damn bright? The bridge itself looks devoid of character which was something that even Next Generation had. And my God the lens flares. Why are there so many damn lens flares? Or overly bright scenes where the whiteness obscures the scene? But man, a second viewing of Star Trek after experiencing the older movies made me realize how much the remake did right. From characters to action, Star Trek is a great time but when you have the memory and knowledge from previous movies, it's an absolute treat. This is, quite possibly, one of the best reboots of a franchise.

Wiz RECOMMENDS Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home The plot to Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home is patently absurd: Kirk, Spock, Bones and the crew have to time travel to 1986 to take two humpback whales, bring it back to their 23rd century time to...talk to an alien ship that is taking all the water away from Earth and sucking up it's power. Just absolutely ridiculous on the face of it. Should be a laughably bad time. And yet...Voyage is a fun time. This is mainly for two reasons: The cast is having a good time in the film, especially Shatner, Nimoy and Kelley. The film doesn't even attempt to take itself seriously at all. And with that, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home is just a cute, fun, if not very deliberate message movie. That being said, I would have much rather had a movie that was more like the last two films, filled with excitement, action and a thoughtful plot. And since you can't take any of it seriously at all, it's hard to take any of the new characters or drama that seriously either. But in this case, it doesn't matter: Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home is just a good, cheesy, cute time with the crew.

Show notes provided by Jack Adrien How does a rejuvenated science fiction franchise follow arguably the best installment in its long-standing television and movie series? Well, if it's the decades-long Star Trek franchise and following Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan's (Khan's) critical and commercial success, Paramount Pictures greenlit for producer Harve Bennett to write a sequel the day after Khan opened. But how would that work? We watched and mourned Mr. Spock's heroic sacrifice to save the Enterprise and her crew, marking the “death” of not only one of the franchise's most beloved and well-known characters, but also a character that embodies the science fiction genre. And Leonard Nimoy, the actor who brought Mr. Spock to life, had long expressed his frustration with the weight of playing the character, most notably in his first autobiography released in 1975, I Am Not Spock. With Khan, did Paramount grant Nimoy's wish? Whereas Star Trek: The Motion Picture rebooted the franchise for cinema audiences, Khan reintroduced a memorable antagonist from one of the series' first season episodes. Although the third film in the Star Trek film franchise,Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (Search) marked the second part of what many consider a three-film story arc – beginning with Khan released in 1982 and ending with 1986's Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (Voyage) – that shows how the original series characters accept aging in the franchise's world building. Within this loose narrative trilogy, Captain James T. Kirk met his son, David Marcus – neither of whom had met before – and Kirk witnessed the death of his best friend, Mr. Spock, in Khan. And in a startling reversal, rogue Klingons kill Kirk's son and Mr. Spock is “resurrected” in Search. Memorably, to save his life and those of his crew, Kirk must kill the franchise's most central character in Search: The USS Enterpriseitself. Nestled as the story-arc's midpoint, Search allowed the Star Trek franchise to mature and move beyond its television series roots. Released three years before the successor television series in the franchise, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Search delivers on poignant story arcs for its characters, particularly William Shatner's portrayal of Kirk. As Paramount released more films over the years, the fandom (i.e., Trekkies) settled on an “Odd-Even Rule” (i.e., the even-numbered films are often considered better than the odd-numbered ones). But that shorthand has often overlooked and underrated Search's significance to the franchise. Foremost, Search marks Leonard Nimoy's motion picture directorial debut, deftly balancing action, humor, and tension. Nimoy later garnered acclaim for his direction of Voyage and Three Men and a Baby, respectively. Further, Search formally introduced the grammar, syntax, andvocabulary for the Klingon language. The constructed language gained greater notoriety when its creator, Marc Okrand, and Pocket Books published The Klingon Dictionary in 1985. Moreover, Nimoy cast Christopher Llyod against type as the primary Klingon antagonist, Commander Kruge, and whose standout performance paved the way for his later iconic role as Dr. Emmett “Doc” Brown in the Back to the Future trilogy. Lastly, Kirk's destruction of the USS Enterprise over the Genesis planet in Search would later introduce the USS Enterprise-A in Voyage, the replacement for the destroyedstarship, creating a legacy of distinguishing successor ships of the line with the next letter in the alphabet that has endured in the franchise.  Join the Mint Condition crew of James, Joe, John, Josh, and Jack as we go behind the scenes and discus Search's history, our impressions when we saw the movie, and where the movie fits in the Star Trek film franchise today. Moreover, we discuss alternative castings and storylines, and does Search disprove the Odd-Even Rule. Because the needs of the one outweigh the needs of the many.

About Adam Nimoy Adam Nimoy is a graduate of UC Berkeley and Loyola Law School. After seven years in entertainment law, he left to pursue a directing career. Nimoy has directed over forty-five hours of network television as well as the critically acclaimed documentary about his father, For The Love Of Spock (2016) an official selection at the Tribeca Film Festival. He has taught filmmaking at the New York Film Academy and Beit T'Shuvah, a residential addiction treatment center. About "The Most Human" While the tabloids and fan publications portrayed the Nimoys as a “close family,” to his son Adam, Leonard Nimoy was a total stranger. The actor was as inscrutable as the iconic half-Vulcan science officer he portrayed on Star Trek, even to those close to him. Now, his son's poignant memoir explores their complicated relationship and how it informed his views on marriage, parenting, and later, sobriety. Despite their differences, both men ventured down parallel paths: marriages leading to divorce, battling addiction, and finding recovery. Most notably, both men struggled to take the ninth step in their AA journey: to make amends with each other. Discover how the son of Spock learned to navigate this tumultuous relationship—from Shabbat dinners to basement AA meetings—and how he was finally able to reconcile with his father—and with himself. _______________________________________________________________ One easy way to support this show is to rate and review Read Between the Lines wherever you listen to our podcast.  Those ratings really help us and help others find our show.

In a departure from martial arts or buddy cop movies, Chris has gone for the heart warming comedy from 1987, Three Men and a Baby. Three Men and a Baby was an American adaptation of the 1985 French film "Trois Hommes et un Couffin" (Three Men and a Cradle), produced by Touchstone Pictures. The casting was crucial to the film's success, bringing together Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson, three popular actors whose chemistry and comedic timing were essential to the story. The film follows three bachelors who suddenly find themselves responsible for an infant left on their doorstep, leading to a series of humorous and heartwarming situations. Filming took place primarily in New York City, with a large portion of the movie set in a stylish Manhattan apartment designed to reflect the characters' bachelor lifestyles. The production team faced challenges in working with a baby on set, requiring careful coordination and patience to ensure smooth shooting schedules. Nimoy's direction focused on balancing the comedic elements with genuine moments of character development and warmth. The film's lighthearted script, combined with the engaging performances of the leads, contributed to its wide appeal. Upon its release, "Three Men and a Baby" became a box office hit, earning praise for its charming storyline and the chemistry among its stars, ultimately becoming one of the highest-grossing films of the year and solidifying its place in 1980s pop culture.

Tread Perilously continues its month of treading safely with one of the best Columbo episodes ever filmed: "A Stitch In Crime." When Dr. Barry Mayfield's (special guest star Leonard Nimoy) ambitions to become renowned for a new anti-rejection drug are threatened by the head of the project, he plots to murder him in the slowest way possible. When his plan goes into motion, Mayfield kills the nurse (special guest star Anne Francis) who suspects him of sabotaging their boss's heart operation. Columbo soon arrives on the scene and makes life a living hell for Mayfield. But will the smart doctor fall for Columbo's ruse or is he an adversary unlike anything the lieutenant has faced before? Erik and Justin are right to invoke logic when discussing Nimoy, who proves to be a superb antagonist for star Peter Falk. They also fall in love, again, with Nita Talbot, who guests in the episode as Anne Francis's roommate. Justin declares the story "shockingly modern" thanks to several recent shows indebted to Columbo. Erik numerates the episodes he passed over for Nimoy's guest turn. Geography Corners abound. A discussion of classic horror movies breaks out, as does a chat about Kevin McCarthy. Justin's Columbo impression improves while Erik's disintegrates when he also attempts to do his Dr. McCoy. And, of course, everything comes back to the Turnbull ACs.

Later, he too is in more of a Safari look, and has a professorial pipe as well.   Dr Gary Chapman, Astronomer The man who first photographed Sirius B - Dr Lindenblad A little of the FORTRAN code that powers the orbit animation in the episode:   We don't have enough information to know who made Nimoy's safari clothing, but if you want to try and track down a very close approximation, this example from J. Peterman's (est 1987) is as close a match as I've seen. You would still need to find it in a vintage shop because at present they don't sell these.

Jeb and Blake extinguish our cigarettes, put our trays in the upright position, and head out the back of the plane in search of the elusive skyjacker known as D. B. Cooper. Nimoy Fashion Alert - dimly lit corporate office edition.   D. B. Cooper - Wikipedia The Pursuit of D. B. Cooper (Movie) - if you buy it on Amazon we get a few pennies. Recent Netflix series on D. B. Cooper Blake's friend Rick Ollerman offered some opinions on vintage round parachutes.     Later we meet Nimoy outside where you can make out more of his ensemble.   Of course this is an episode about D. B. Cooper - who for Jeb and I, evokes the classic "MIB" look.   This ain't deal-a-meal. This is a different Richard Simmons.   There is some great photography in this episode. I liked seeing the reservoir and dam. Imagine landing there on a stormy November night without jump boots...   Finally - kudos to the faceless Cooper stand-in who lugged stuff around in the anonymous re-creations. 

Major gifts are critical for every arts organization. This episode features board member and major gift philanthropist Susan Bay Nimoy, wife of the late actor Leonard Nimoy (most known for his role as Spock on Star Trek, and yes, we talk about it!). We cover all things major gifts, including relationship building, how that takes time, and what the process is that compels her as a major donor to give generously.Susan Bay Nimoy has served on the board of many arts organizations, including the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, Symphony Space in New York, The Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, and the Griffith Observatory. She recently endowed The Nimoy Theatre in LA, which is part of UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance.Want to know what to say when building major donor relationships in the arts and ultimately soliciting a major gift?

Now that we've talked about Leonard Nimoy as host of IN SEARCH OF..., it's finally time for the IMMP to discuss the dramatic action-adventure series whose ensemble included Leonard Nimoy, years earlier. It premiered in 1966, and while it had fans from the very start it exploded in popularity in the years that followed. It came back in the 1980s with a revival series, and also gave rise to a long-running movie franchise. (Spoiler: It's MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE!)

The Life & Legacy of Leonard NimoyIn honor of the late Leonard Nimoy, Star Trek historian and Nimoy archivist Bonnie Moss visits Trek Untold to tell us about the man behind the pointy ears. We get the inside story of Nimoy's life beyond Star Trek, discussing his passion for photography and the arts, reading some of Nimoy's poetry (and how that reflected his worldview), his opinion on The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins, the feud between Nimoy and Shatner, what Nimoy thought of the longevity of Star Trek and Trekkies, and what his final days were like. Bonnie is a lifelong Trekkie, and also tells us about the evolution of the fandom from its beginnings to where it is now in the internet age, why Star Trek was so important to her as a child, how a particular episode of the original series influenced her choice of profession, what happened to the original fandom when Star Trek was canceled after its third season, and more!

SIDE HUSTLE 9: FARMER HOGGETT'S VOYAGE HOME Travel across the cosmos and back in time this week with TGTPTU and the crews of two starships Enterprise. Special guest Martin Harries from the Film vs Film podcast joins Capt. Ken and his number one Thomas this week to boldly go where numerous podcasting Trekkies have gone before as they explore two Academy (Starfleet) Award-winning actor-directors:STAR TREK IV: THE VOYAGE HOME (1986) starring and directed by Leonard Nimoy in his second directorial contribution to the Star Trek movie franchise. Nimoy would subsequently direct the top-grossing film of the following year, Three Men and Baby, but first he got the opportunity to give his vision to the Trek franchise. The Voyage Home was a hit with the general public, promoting an environmental message of deep concern to Nimoy who didn't want violence if he was going to direct what most fans consider the end of an internal Trek trilogy that began with Wrath of Khan.STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT (1996) starring and directed by Jonathan Frakes in his feature debut as a director in this eighth Star Trek franchise film and the second for The Next Generation crew. Lighter on humor (but surprisingly also featuring a nuclear wessel), portions of First Contact are shot like a horror movie as The Borg (The Next Generation's eternal alien enemy) travel(s) back in time and infect(s) the crew aboard the Enterprise while the away team shakes a tail feather and drinks moonshine with the yet-to-be-legendary Zefram Cochrane portrayed by James Cromwell one year after playing Farmer Hoggett in Babe. “But what of Shatner?” serious nerds of film and fiends of the franchise might ask. Look, nerd/fiend, the ‘final frontier' might be a destination to boldly go, but it's a shit flick and gives credence to the cursed “odd number” Trek movies. We'd prefer to listen to 106 minutes of remixed whale song than suffer again through the trauma of Star Trek V: The Favored Nations Clause in Kirk's Contract (1989). So, in short, double dumbass on you.Now set headphones to stun and ready and prepare yourself for yammering speed and jettisoned opinions. May the force be with you.FILM VS FILM LINKS (it's so good): https://filmvsfilmpodcast.buzzsprout.com/THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Twitter: https://twitter.com/thegoodthepoda1YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gBuzzsprout: https://thegoodthepodandtheugly.buzzsprout.com/Letterboxd (follow us!):Ken: Ken KoralJack: jackk1096

Mark Maddox and I return to the Star Trek feature films! This time we tackle the big one – the one that kept the franchise alive – STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN (1982). It's an important film for Trek fans and also an important part of the astonishing list of genre releases from that year. We briefly discuss the other films from 1982 to demonstrate the pivotal nature of the cinema of that time and its long-term effect on the genre. For this episode we assume you have some knowledge of the film and spoilers are in every corner of every deck. You have been warned.   We each relate our personal history with the film starting with theatrical viewings and then we dig into the details that make this one a classic. The selection of Nicholas Meyer as director is pointed to as the choice that probably guaranteed the project's success with his melding of the various script ideas into a cohesive whole. The cast is discussed with Shatner, Nimoy, Kelley and Montalban singled out for praise for their excellent performances. Mark recounts his discouraging encounter with an odd form of homophobia when seeing the film for the first time and we compare the first film's special effects to the smaller budgeted sequel. The story's commentary on aging comes under scrutiny as both of us think about the changes in ourselves since this film came out. We ain't getting any younger, that's for sure!   If you have any comments about Star Trek thebloodypit@gmail.com is the place to send them. We'll be back in a few weeks to continue this journey with Kirk and the gang and we hope you'll join us.

John Price and Larry Young from Seriously Star Trek Join me to discuss a few Trek subjects.Now tha Picard is done and the positive views and praise for Matalas coninues will this point to a new Trek direction , or was it a blip and the new shows will feel like more Discovery?
