I have photos of my visit to Star Trek Set Tour on my Facebook page.
It's the whole set, correct? Not just the bridge? As much as the bridge
is iconic, I'd like to see the rest of the areas as well, check out
Kirk's quarters.
Yes even a Transporter Room you can actually stand on the transporter pads or stand in front of the console which looks real enough to function.
It was amazing experience visiting the Star Trek Set Tour, it was also fun to hear of the stories and how they made certain things. Like the transparent wall of circles, which were pieces of pvc pipe each cut to the exact same size and then glued together with a lot of patience to make a vertical wall of circles. Found in Sickbay.
I think they are working on adding more. Not sure what they will do next.
It would be amazing to see the Shuttlecraft within it's bay.
It's interesting seeing the complaints about the size differences in Strange New Worlds and TOS. Captain Pike's quarters are huge and have a KW> dining area and kitchen.
It's been a while since I have seen Pikes quarters on Strange New Worlds I have to re-enlist w/ Paramount. I usually get it annually and without commercials as I recall. I enjoyed the story arc of Picard when it was on, not knowing what really comes next accept knowing that all survive at the end of the episode.
These streaming services do add up kind of quickly , but cable sucks so bad. Not a Big Fan of Disney + due to the whole woke thing, but my wife and I tuned in for Star Wars Mandalorian, we loved every moment.
Waiting on Season IV please please...
Moff Gideon the villain in season 3 reminded me of The Reverend Al Sharpton, of which is kinda creepy.
There have been those moments in the Star Trek movies that have ripped my heart out, causing me to be very sad and then very angry.
1. Kirk's Death - "Oh My..." I couldn't stand the actor Malcolm McDowell, after this. I was like, "Who the hell, do you think you are?"
I think that this bothered Shatner too, because he wrote a book The Return. 2. Spock's Death - "I have been - and always shall be - your friend."
Makes me sad to even type last one.
3. Data's Death - in the movie Star Trek Nemesis.
4. The Destruction of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 in The Wrath of Khan.
All of these characters from TOS were like family and of course the special memories of watching Star Trek TOS w/ my Dad after my mom passed way.
He used to make me SpaghettiOs w/ franks I think before it was a regular thing from Franco-American. lol.
JJ Abrams had me screaming at the Big Screen, um the warp nacelles do not
move like you would move your elbows. (eyeroll)
