There is a person out there, somewhere.  That person went through his or her copy of The Gamesters of Triskelion meticulously, carefully, searching for just the right moment of time to freeze forever in a static Sliver Of Awesome.  Then, when he or she had that Sliver, it was gingerly attached to a certain audio track, in the hopes that synergy would work its hidden magic and create a glorious paean to schlock.

I am here to tell that person: you have succeeded.

You win the Internets.

(Via Fark Geek) Filming starts next January. No word yet if it’s going to have him as the villain; but think about it.  Who the hell are you going to get to play that part?  I mean, it’s not precisely a difficult range, but it’s… you know.  Khan.

Words cannot express my pride.

Shatner being serious about the Vic-20.

Shatner being Shatner about World of Warcraft.

You have to wonder if he ever wonders how it is that he ended up with a career where his success depends on how well he can imitate himself.  Not that I judge him for that: it’s a living, and at least he’s not selling anything illegal, immoral, or likely to explode.

Admit it. You’d go.

You’d go, and you’d even rent a tux.

PS: Seriously, Wrath of Khan is probably the best of the bunch to be made into an opera.

I’ve mentioned it before.

Anyway, it’s telling about the quality of the recent Star Trek movie that there’s been a number of people wondering how this version of the crew is going to handle meeting Khan. I’d actually prefer that they don’t – watch Space Seed again, then Wrath of Khan, and tell me how you can fairly expect somebody to live up to Ricardo Montalban – but it tells you something that the fans have relaxed about the entire prospect.

Me, I want to see how they handle Mirror, Mirror.  I have high expectations for Simon Pegg’s performance in that one.
