Several years back he was at the TIFF Lightbox here in Toronto and gave a talk about his work and career. Great evening. When he was talking about designing the Enterprise for The Motion Picture he wanted a modal that would light itself up like an aircraft carrier at sea, instead of having to be externally lit all the…

Just want to mention that the bartender was veteran Canadian character actor Timothy Webber, who has a stonking list of credits on IMDB. If you’ve ever watched a TV show filmed in Canada, he’s probably shown up on it at some point. 

Before the pandemic, a local rep theatre here in Toronto had a showing of all of Garth Merenghi, and Matt Berry (in town filming) showed up for it. Great evening!

The Blacklist is still around? You gotta be kidding me.

Just a shout-out to the incredibly complicated tracking shot that opens the film (which of course gets messed up at the end).

The perfect capstone would have been “A Quinn Martin Production”.

As a TCM watcher I laughed way too much at "Van Johnson". 

The Dean Machine, the Dean Machine

Regarding the dust out the pants leg, Jimmy, classic movie fan, totally got that from THE GREAT ESCAPE.

Right down to Mia going “William!” to get him back on track when he goes off on a tangent.
