I’m a pretty big Trek geek. Had you asked me yesterday how many pilot episodes there were of the original Star Trek television series I’d have said two. And would have argued any other answer provided with a sneering superiority. And then I read this press release announcing yet another unaired Star Trek pilot had […]
So the big news last week was that the long awaited Star Trek MMO will be released in February 2010. Hot damn, right? Now, the big question… will your system run it? And more important, will mine? According to Star Trek Online in a FAQ updated this week: System Requirements OS: Windows XP SP2 / […]

In hilarious fashion, he riffed on Treknobabble. Harlan Ellison called it Balonium and it existed even back in the TOS days, but TNG took it to new heights. What Moore, […]
One huge Trek fan that we’ve yet to hear from concerning JJ Abrams’ Trek reboot is Der Fuhrer. That is, until now…
Sure, the fifth biggest movie of the year (so far) won’t hit DVD until November and your chances of catching it in iMax right now are about as good as hitting the lottery, still you can settle in with friends and wax nostalgic about the best franchise reboot since ever. In episode 103 of the […]
