STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE

Happy LAST DAY OF SEPTEMBER!!!!

The topic of the day is STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE
 
It is newer than the original series. {Its a prequel to every star trek}
It came out in 2001 and it ended in 2005
 
The show's setting is in the 22nd century, 100 years before the events of STAR TREK {the original series} occur and about 10 years before the UNITED FEDERATION OF PLANETS was formed.
It shows events taking place on one of the first Warp 5 starships. Just to show how *slow* that is, the starship Voyager, which is in the future, goes to Warp 9.7

The main characters on the Enterprise are Captain Jonathan Archer {the captain, duh} who is in the middle top in the picture, Sub-Commander T'Pol {the Vulcan first officer/science officer} who is in the right top in the picture, Commander Trip Tucker {the cheif engineer} who is in the lef top of the picture, Doctor Phlox {the Denobulan cheif medical officer} who is in the bottom left of the picture, Travis Mayweather {the helmsman} bottom middle left of the picture, Hoshi Sato {the communications officer} in the bottom middle right of the picture, and Malcolm Reed {the weapons officer} in the bottom right of the picture.

They all serve on the Enterprise

My favorite part about the whole series is the theme song called "where my heart will take me"

which you can listen to/watch if you follow the link above

Alot of people hate the song but its pretty cool..... It doesn't really go with the other songs from other STAR TREK series, but it goes with the theme of the everything STAR TREK.

My favorite episode of this whole series is the last one which is called "These are the Voyages..."
alot of people hate it, but it was actually pretty good if you haven't seen it stop reading cuz there will now be several spoilers.

Riker goes to the holodeck {Riker is a character from STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION} yep, he goes to the HOLODECK {which is slightly insulting because it all takes place in the holodeck, he should have gone back in time.....} he is observing whats going on on the Enterprise because he needs guidance..... weird, but okay.....

Spoiler!!!
Trip dies, saving Captain Archer and the Enterprise. Which is depressing, but its not like Trip was my favorite anyway, I thought he was kind of annoying {until he died a hero} then he was somewhat cool.

Those are really good parts, but to understand the BEST PART {and the saddest, tear-jerker moment}, you have to know that STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE was the last STAR TREK TV series ever made. The part is at the end, when right before Captain Archer's speech, Diana Troi and Riker are leaving the holodeck. It can be watched right here:

I cried when I watched it.

I will end with this deep thought {in vulcan again}
Nahp, hif-bi tu throks.
{your thoughts, give them to me}
i.e. Comment Please!

STAR TREK!!

Happy Saturday!
I decided that for the next like six days I will talk about STAR TREK!!!
Six days because there are six different things to talk about when you talk about STAR TREK.
There's STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE  which isn't my favorite but its still pretty good.

 
Then STAR TREK {the original series, but that's not in the original title so I will leave it out}
I haven't seen many episodes of this series, but I have seen all the movies.
 
Of course after this there is the newer STAR TREK movie
And it is AMAZING {the next movie after it may come out in 2013!!}
After that there is STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION. Definitely NOT one of my favorites. The plot is good and everything, but it gets kind of old after a few episodes

Then, my second favorite STAR TREK series, STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE {love the plot and all the conflict with the dominion and the Cardassians}





Last, but not least, my FAVORITE STAR TREK series, STAR TREK: VOYAGER {the cast is AWESOME, the plot is GREAT, its just amazing!}



 
I will end with another very deep thought, except I will write it in Vulcan
Dif-tor heh smusma
{live long and prosper}

Avengers Assemble!

The Marvel movie Avengers came out TODAY!!!
So I decided to talk about how amazing it is!!
It is such a good movie. So good that I can not decide who my favorite character is......
I mean there's Iron Man/Tony Stark who is pretty cool for lots of reasons.....
like he has AMAZING armor {I am so jealous!}
And then there's Captain America...... Who has a beautiful sheild...... Somewhat beautiful anyway.....
Also Thor who has MAGICAL POWERS!!
Then Bruce Banner...... Love how he turns into "A big green rage monster"......
And Hawkeye...... Who shoots a bow and arrow LIKE LEGOLAS!!!! {Except Hawkeye's arrows BLOW UP and stuff}
Lastly there's the Black Widow {Natasha Romanova..... whatever} who is amazing in every way.....
OH and we can't forget Loki! Well.....
I will end with this very deep thought:
SHAWARMA!!!!!!!!!
