As a hardcore Trek fan David is speaking to me this entire time, I love it
Joe Arvis
This is about as good as movie commentaries get
Jordan Gibson
On the basis of Nimoy not wanting to be Spock/being Spock-- he also has a solo album titled "The Two Sides of Leonard Nimoy" one side is essentially country songs sung by him about his life and earth and the other side is him singing as Spock. I kid you not. I own it and have listened to it more than anyone should.

Second Galaxy Quest mention this series!! Please consider covering it as a bonus!! I’d absolutely love to hear the coverage of Sigourney Weaver’s character alone and all the Trek allusions. PLEASE 😁
Andrew DeBenedictis
Yes!!! Please do this episode!!!!!

In regards to early CGI, they mentioned the wire frame models, but the huge innovation in this movie is the one shot Genesis transformation sequence in Dr Marcus' pitch video.

Griff is dead right about being dead on screen. I'm a retired stuntman. Mostly I was a henchman. So getting killed by heroes. Many times lay on concrete and asphalt for hours. Once nearly 8. The key is to be the LAST henchman killed in the scene.

...he’s gonna love those worms, though...

I’d say Star Trek fights are more submarine then naval

Hooting and hollering over the 1970s Box Office Game episode idea!!

Me sitting down and getting ready to watch along: "And we're doing the director's cut, by the way..." - DOH!

When they talk about actors just pushing random buttons, it reminded me that Wil Wheaton said he had a very specific set of buttons he would push every time when he would bring the ship to warp. This is obviously because he’s a massive nerd, but pretty cool.
Lundon Boyd
It doesn’t feel right the first viewing of this movie for Griffin is also demanding that he talks through it
Matt Brown
Thanks!!

I must say that the idea of an all box office game episode focusing on box offices from the 70s is exactly why I am a patron. That sounds like so much fun.
Matt King
loved that Ben mostly forgot to bully us nerds because the movie was too damn good I'm sure he'll make up for it during Search for Spock

@matt brown, the 1st and 21st are always commentaries, the 11th is bonuses and other grab-bag episodes
Matt Brown
Is there a schedule for these? For some reason I thought The Return of Jafar was this week.

“I have a concept for putting mud flaps on clothes.”
Mike Dickson
I really wish I had read it was the director's cut before I rented the movie. D'oh!
Jordan B. Anderson
now that's some world-class punnery
Jacob Dominguez
Am I crazy or did this episode arrive early? I’m definitely not complaining either way!😄
