Star Trek: The Motion Picture

I would be remiss if I didn't observe the anniversary of the release of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. I'm such a nerd I re-watch this movie every year on this date.

You kids who live in a world of 800 hours of Trek can't appreciate how exciting it was that this movie was coming out.

While the movie is slow in parts, I think Shatner does a really good job as a haunted/obsessed Kirk.

Hard to imagine Chris Pine having the gravity to pull off Admiral Kirk in 8 years, but maybe in the reboot Kirk won't accept the promotion.
