    I’m sorry, can anyone remind me of the joke without forcing me to rewatch this at 8:33am?

      Somehow, I don’t think Shatner would object to the Chun-Li hair buns. Chances are, he’d steal them from the set afterwards.

    So you’re saying there will be no 60th Anniversary today … and that a a deranged El-Aurian scientist, will launch a trilithium weapon as an explosive agent into our sun, stopping all nuclear fusion within the star, leading to an instant supernova that will cause massive gravitational disturbances that will alter the trajectory of a nearby energy ribbon to pass over our planet, and in the powerful gravimetric field emanating from the trailing edge of the energy ribbon, send this psychotic scholarly experimentalist into an extra-dimensional Heaven-like realm in which one’s thoughts and desires shape reality while leaving behind our homeworld to be destroyed by the rapid expansion of our local star.

      I saw. Each paired with an episode from TAS. Wish they’d include an intermission, then I might be more tempted.

        Cinemark did when I went to Wrath of Khan over the weekend. Episode, quick intermission with enough time for bathroom and snacks, then the film.

          Guessing there was an intro bit, the episode, then intermission? So, that covers maybe 30 minutes, short break, then roughly 2 hour movie. Would prefer a more balanced approach, but it’s better than nothing for 3ish hours straight.

            That about sums it up, minus much of an intro. It was just straight into it. Space Seed is about 50 minutes long, WoK runs another two hours. Definitely not the best split, but it’s manageable.
