Who is the actor that plays data's dickish first officer in the season five premiere? He looks super familiar.

Not looking him up on Memory Alpha before asking is without honor.

I have now subjected my girlfriend to the first five Trek movies, thanks to our local video store. She declared The Final Frontier second-worst, behind TMP. I argued that, even though TMP had like only three story beats, at least they followed each other, unlike the mess we'd just watched.

I don't look forward to showing her Insurrection and Nemesis!

Shatner's direction, Laszlo's cinematography and Goldsmith's score are beyond reproach.

Yes, I liked the part where Voldemort looks at the guy riding up on a unicorn and it cuts between them eight times for no reason. And when Bones, Kirk, and Spock are standing around in the room with the ship wheel and the framing cuts off a third of Kirk's left side, but is also not really focused on Spock. Or when the four of them land in the shuttle and line up by the door in a majestic shot, then exit the shuttle and line up in the same order, facing the other direction, for another majestic shot.

Didn't he also leap out the second before he pulled the trigger? That way your hero didn't technically murder Kennedy.

He jumped into the Secret Service agent at the last second and jumped on the car, saving Jackie.

Data had a kind of sinister quality in the pilot that could have gone interesting places on a show that wasn't about the Buddy Bears Who Always Get Along.

Data trying to blast Kivas Fajo and then lying to Riker about it when he gets beamed away at the last second is one of the most badass things he ever did.

And the only reason she didn't succeed completely was her emotional decision to not kill Kirk and Spock in sickbay when they discovered her involvement in the conspiracy. Spock even tells her killing them immediately is the logical thing to do.

Spock slapping the phaser away is so great, much like most of that movie.

It's fabric, so it'd absorb the classic "Hello?" - oh? - oh? oh? oh? oh? effect. Your voice soaks into the textile, strained through crushing stillness only to crash unpleasantly around the distant bulkheads. The alkaline stink of freshly-laid carpet - micro-shampooed nightly by the skutters - attacks your sinuses like acid. There is nothing here but friction burn. You are alone, and unwelcome; a pink stain in the beige wilderness.
