During the first airing of my Star Trek series where a kiss was objectionable; many southern stations pulled the episode & condemned the show. Using today’s vernacular it would absolutely be called“woke DEI crap”because it went against “norms” of society for its time. Not a lot seems to have changed.🤷🏼😑

Awwww ….our allies aren’t interested in sending a single thing to help the psychopath in his Iran chaos. And as well they shouldn’t!!!

[Elijah Wood @elijahwood]

A move completely antithetical to the ethos of the Alamo and to those who love the theatrical experience they provide. This is a profound and upsetting mistake @alamodrafthouse

[Spocklight @spocklightpod]

Thanks to @ChrisHewitt and @jamescdyer for the lovely little Spocklight nod on the Empire review of the year pod 🥹

NEW EPISODE ALERT 🖖

Paul once told us that the acting role that comes to mind when they think of William Shatner is Captain Byers from Stanley Kramer's Judgment at Nuremberg, rather than Captain Kirk! Now we discover why! #StarTrek

The Human Adventure is Just Beginning. Celebrating Star Trek: The Motion Picture, which premiered in theatres on December 7, 1979. The film had its flaws, but it was a major triumph, for Gene Roddenberry, for the production team, and most of all, for the fans,.

From the (very busy) weekend - thrilled I worked out how to best sit on this chair for optimum 'channel 4 presenter' vibes😆

We’ve had a bunch of listener requests to cover the Director’s Cut of Ridley Scott’s Kingdom of Heaven over the years and now it’s finally here as the Spocklight crew gather to reevaluate the film two decades on from its release.

Just a few of my favourite Drew Struzan movie posters. Whether a classic or a turkey, Struzan always did sublime work no matter the quality of the film itself, when it comes to movie posters he truly was the GOAT and we’ll never the like again, R.I.P.
