Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Trailer:
Met some lovely people from ontd_startrek for a meet up on Saturday to watch an original cinema print of Star Trek: The Motion Picture @ bfi. Fun times chatting, playing with action figures and then going to see the film - for me for the first time. This has been called Star Trek: The Motionless Picture by fans and so I wasn't sure what to expect. And LOL good god man some of the shots go on forever! Too much 2001 Space Odyssey influence? On the other hand in the context of its original release seeing the enterprise ship jump from a small tv screen to the cinema screen must have been an exciting thing. The best bits were of course Spock/Kirk/McCoy moments and I do like that in the same way as Star Trek IV -this movie does not have a 'typical villian' for want of a better expression. Next month the bfi are showing Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. I shall be there :)
