Today, for the very 1st time, I watched episode one of Star Trek: The Original Series. I've kind of seen Star Trek before; I've seen the most recent movie. However, I've never actually really sat down and paid attention to it. The only one I vaguely remember is Trouble with Tribbles.
As I watched, I found myself highly intrigued and wondering how much of the special effects looked high tech back in the day. I mean, their radios looked like the equivalent to our cell phones today. I also found myself listening for words and phrases I've heard in movies/TV that I know came from Star Trek.
It reminds me of when I watched The X-Files growing up and how much I loved it.
Finally, I am embracing a cult classic to which I was seldom exposed. My childhood mainly consisted of old school horror like Freddy and Jason, old school westerns, 80's 'n 90's American cartoons, and action movies.
Even so, there's no time like the present to play catch up.
Believe me, I've a great deal of it left.
