I recently had the opportunity to watch a special presentation of an episode of Star Trek: New Voyages ... A series of episodes of classic Star Trek material set in what would have been the 4th and 5th seasons of a original series, had the show not been cancelled three years into the five year mission ...

It takes a few minutes to get into the replacement characters, and to accept that the 60's style acting was NOT parody, but homage ...

They even had a few original cast members make appearances including the original Sulu George Takei; who elevated the entire production and gave it a legitimacy that was very cool ... I wish he would have been there as originally advertised ...

A Star Trek episode on the big screen was a different feel ... especially one like this

Alana (Sulu's daughter) was played by an actress named Christina Moses ... Sulu's daughter was hot and had a good screen presence ... and I thought I had seen her before, but since she basically has no other IMDB credits that is impossible ... I think she has a future and would like to see her get a few other roles ...

It was cool to have the director in attendance and to get a good explanation of the project and process in advance ...

Bottom line is that I could picture this really being an episode of the 4th season that never happened ...

My guest was sad at the end ...

I am going to have to look online and see other episodes now ...

... and yes, it was very clear that Captain Kirk wanted to shag Sulu's daughter ...
