That's nothing. The Federal Reserve has
been making invisible gold for years.

Funny coincidence! Last night, Princess Wei and I rooted through BOXES
of the leftover unauctioned, untaken VHS tapes leftover from the Drill
and fished out the fourth Star Trek movie, "The Voyage Home", in which
the intrepid crew goes back in time to money-saving 1986 California, in
order to fetch a humpbacked whale back to the future so as to pacify
whale-hugging Yacatisma.

There is a funny scene in which Scotty and Bones talk an industrial
engineer into making "TRANSPARENT ALUMINUM" for their whale-tank by
revealing to him the future-secret of transparent aluminum. Scotty
first tries talking a Classic Mac into displaying the formula, then
picks up the mouse and tries to use it as a microphone, and finally
brings the formula up on the screen using the keyboard. Maybe I should
grab a freeze-frame of the formula displayed on the little Mac screen
in the movie -- then WE'D have the secret of Transparent Aluminum.

Ooo. Save that one. You may not have noticed it
the first time, but ST IV has some of the WORST
bulldada dialogue you have heard in a long time.
I mean, cringeworthy awful:

"This isn't reality, this is fantasy!"

"Captain, I'm detecting whale song!"

"I am looking for the nuclear wessels. Do you know
where the nuclear wessels are?"

I don't know what you're talking about.
I've never met you before in my life.
That story sounds like utter bullshit.
I wasn't there and it wasn't me.
I am *not* in denial. Shut up.

ST IV was the best Star Trek EVER! Not only was it a parody of several
Old Trek themes, it was a parody of the past, the present, the future,
and of the individual actors themselves, some of whom layered their own
self-parodies on top of the scripted ones. Some of the best acting and
dialog ever, and filled with great sight-gags.

A brilliant, and highly underrated film.

Four paws up

Brilliant, I dunno if I'd go that far, "shiny" maybe... but I sure
liked it a way lot better than any of the other ones that I saw. I'm
wondering if it's the only one that Nimoy directed.

Ever since I saw the odd little movie "Free Enterprise" I have LIKED
William Shatner. He mocks himself marvelously in that one. But I find
it difficult to watch Captain Kirk in anything now without thinking of
Zap Brannigan.

Oh, Lordy. Here I go with the Star Trek geekery. *ahem*

Nimoy also directed "ST III: In Search of... Spock", in which the
Star Trek franchise goes all Marvel Comics on us with the thesis
that Death isn't really permanent and you can bring any character
back to life if you put your mind to it.

After which, Shatner obviously said, "Het, if he can direct a movie,
*I* can, too!" The result was "Star Trek V: Kirk Fights God and
Wins". Gah.

All right, all right, I'll admit it. I've actually gone to see alllll the
Star Trek
movies in the theaters. Some of them I even think were worth seeing.

Okay, now this one I've never seen. I'll have to remedy that someday.
