Search for Spock isn't a bad movie, it just isn't Khan or Voyage Home. Although really, all three movies tell one giant story.

Ironically, while some of the ideas on the original show were groundbreaking, it probably inspired a generation of writers and audiences who were way better at expressing those ideas than Roddenberry was.

I meant specifically in the film, but I take your point.

This is really getting into esoteric territory, but since the movies established a completely new timeline, I wonder what Picard and the Next Generation crew look like in this reality. Does the Federation make peace with the Klingons, allowing for Worf on the crew?

TNG got better, but the first couple seasons were rough.

Always a pleasure, Dad.

Eh, I liked Paul well enough, although the atheism was a bit heavy-handed.

Maybe they'll give Alice Eve more to do than just be nude in this one. Eve's a classically trained actress, I wish she was given something to do other than be pretty.

The first Trek had great character development and pretty forgettable villains and plot. The second Trek wasn't so much bad as completely unnecessary, as it was pretty much Wrath of Khan with a different cast and slightly different ending. Hopefully the third one will maintain the solid character work from the first

Well, it's just the poem, but it is heavily illustrated with Base's usual beautiful paintings. I recall the miniseries, which seemed to have damn near every celebrity alive in 1985 in it. I also recall the Jabberwocky being quite on the frightening side, especially after it kills Humpty Dumpty.

Well, really, anything could.

Kids, did either of you pray for giant shoes?

For me, Graeme Base's Jabberwocky is the definitive version.

Yeah, I remember reading the end of the Crisis trade and thinking, "Man, they completely abandoned this idea." Man of Steel pretty much obliterated it, right?

Man, not one Cleveland Show joke. "Martha, where are my teeth?"

And hurtful Asian stereotypes!

Dear God. What happens if you do it wrong?

Don't worry, he's on demand and I think you can catch episodes at TeamCoco.com.

Yeah, they've really dialed up the action this year.
