Naokos sickness was basically uncurable. Tuberculosis was a death sentence back then. She likely wanted to spend her last months with jiro, rather than spending the rest of her life in the hospital with like... a 1% chance shed get better.

宮崎駿ならルパン三世カリオストロの城も見るべき

One of my Top 5 Favourite Ghibli movies. Also this movie has one of the slowest pacing out of all their catalogs along with The Tale of the Princess of Kaguya.

Fascinating entry point into the franchise. I would have never thought to reccomend starting with this one. There are plot elemnts which I woul;d think might be confusing to a non Trekker. Trouble is all the alternatives I can think of have issues as well depending on the audience. I grew up on the Original Series so naturally the first season would be my first inclination, but I would be concerned about losing a younger audience due to it being dated presentation wise. I guess i would have reccommended the even numbered OG Trek movies (plus Search for Spock) to start, then followed by the Khan episode from the OS to set the hook.

The dub is also amazing one of the voice actor is Liam neeson

I'd say Space Seed is the most integral episode to the second original series movie. The rest are just good background information episodes but don't have any real impact on the movies.

Star Trek are basically morality plays.

This pilot was deemed as too cerebral for audiences at the time, so it was rejected, and a second pilot was approved which led to the more well known characters. :)

George Lucas was a huge Star Trek viewer and fan. My advice, definitely watch in Production order, see how the first two go "Where No Man Has Gone Before" and "The Corbomite Maneuver". If you don't decid to watch all the first season, then you'll have plenty of recommendation for the best ones.

Have you seen “The Castle of Cagliostro”? It’s not strictly a Ghibli film but it’s directed and screenplayed by Hayao Miyazaki. Lot of people just think of it as a honorary Ghibli film.

should read the manga. This movie is just 1/7 of the entire story...

I am more aligned with "fantasy/whisked away to another world" movies, but I don't mind some of the slice of life movies. With that being said here's my tierlist... S: Howls, Spirited Away, Mononoke, Nausica, Kaguya, Castle in the Sky, Lupin: Cagliostro Castle A: Ponyo, The Cat Returns, Totoro, Kiki's, Earthsea, Pom Poko, Yamadas B: Fireflies, Arietty, Marnie C: Porco Rosso, Only Yesterday, Whisper of the Heart D: Ocean Waves, Wind Rises, Poppy Hill E: Earwig and the Witch

This is the failed pilot. It was too intellectual, so they were asked to try again and they made "Where No Man Has Gone Before," which was accepted.

Moi! sounds great! My friend also said, will watch the new one "Deadpool & Wolverinein" in the movie theater! I liked "Spider man", especially the first one♡ and now a bit interested in "Inside out 2" too. wow! are you going to move, and in the same city? Your tattoo is nice color on you, dose it have meaning of the picture? I don't have any but some of my friends said about the meaning for that.😊 relaxing day🍵✨ I hope safe and smooth for moving🚚✌✨

This is the most beautiful Japanese movie

One of my faves! Big head aliens, pretty girls, ray guns, weird psychic stuff....how can you not love it????? I was a very little child when this premiered. My uncle purchased the first color television set in our family just to view Star Trek. As for best episodes..."City on the Edge of Forever" is widely regarded as the best episode. A couple other high rated episodes I like are "Devil in the Dark","Amok Time" and "Where No Man has Gone Before". Other favorites for me are "Mudd's Women", "The Trouble With Tribbles", "Return of th Archons", "Journey to Babel", "The Corbomite Maneuver", "All our Yesterdays" and the episode "Space Seed" forms the basis for the second film "Wrath of Khan". I'm subscribing in hopes you watch more of these.

Glad this reaction just popped up in my YT feed to watch. This movie is made for people who never watched old Star Trek. Old Star Trek was more about storytelling & used special effects sparingly over special effects used constantly. It's good for that reason & although I don't like how they changed everything away from original Star Trek, giving us the "Kelvin Timeline". That being said, it's a fun action movie. Just don't think about the plot too much! Enjoy the constant action, yelling, screaming, lens flairs & great special effects!

uhhhh...

Where's the reactions for the later episodes

And you guys went for the most Star Wars Trek movie by the time it came out... Watch Insurrection to rate good Trek.

Number one ( Executive Officer) was Majel Barrett, she became the nurse in TOS (Nurse Chapel). She's Gene Roddenberry's wife. She was also in The Next Generation as Lwaxana Troi, Deanna Troi's mother. Spock here is the science officer maybe the third officer in rank.

Spock's role was Science Officer. The dark haired woman (who eventually married Roddenberry) was just known as "Number One" and was the first officer.

George Lucas said that Mel Brooks couldn’t make Lone Star look like Han Solo. So Mel Brooks made him look like Indiana Jones instead.

Pilot - What we want. TV series - After network says what we can do Look up funny green girl filming and editing story.

It's great to see younger people get interested in these classic comedies. I would recommend most Mel Brooks features like Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Dracula: Dead and Loving It, Young Frankenstein, History of the world Part 1, and Blazing Saddles. And you may want to see ALIEN.

This was a failed pilot and never aired. Later, there is a 2-part episode that uses this footage. But once you get into the series with Captain Kirk, its better. This was a brainy episode, and the studio wanted a series more adventure oriented. Give it a chance. It will make you think, and at the same time, its fun.

Spaceballs is better than Disney Star Wars.

Def better than Disney sw

Did you notice Kirk eating an apple in the Kobayashi Maru test?...just like Kirk in the wrath of Khan does when he explains how he beat the test. Nice call back!. Plus the Romulan at the end who says 'Sir that'll ignite the Red matter' isn't the actor on screen, its Wil Wheaton, 'Wesley' from Star Trek: The Next Generation. The guy-with-clipboard who they get past to get onto the Enterprise is Paul McGillion who auditioned for Scotty but lost to Simon Pegg. He played Scottish Doctor Carson Beckett in Stargate Atlantis and, co-incidentally, like original Scotty James Doohan, he's Canadian (but was born in Scotland).

The original Star Trek was more important to society than most people realize. It was partially important to the United States because it was created during the civil unrest era. Not only civil rights, but it was during the growing unrest over the Vietnam war. It showcased a crew that was not only from different races, but from different countries such as from China and Russia and Scotland all working together in harmony. Montgomery Scott was from Scotland, and Sulu was from China and enson Pavel Chekov was from Russia. Gene Roddenberry wanted to depict a future where we treat other species from other planets no different than we treat each other on Earth. In doing so he started to break down racial divides by showing how stupid racism is. It was not only the first time a black person had a post of authority, but a black woman held a post of authority over white men. It depicted the first interracial kiss. To further highlight how stupid racism is. There was a show with Frank Gorshin who played the Joker on the Batman TV series and movie as a race that was black on one side of the face in mortal combat with another race from the same planet who was black on the other side of the face. It was because of Star Trek that we have such inventions as sliding grocery doors, cell phones and vitals monitors in hospitals. Star Trek was the inspiration for a lot of inventions we take for granted including FaceTime.😊 When I was in college, or what you guys call university I had a creative writing class and the professors often used Star Trek as a teaching tool.

As some have already commented, this first pilot (which was rejected by the network) can’t be said to truly be representative of The Original Series: the feel, and the cast are too different. If you decide that you’re only going to watch a limited number of episodes in the original series (rather than starting at the beginning and working your way through), then to have the best “return on your investment,” you ought to watch the best of the best episodes. My vote for the top ten: - The City on the Edge of Forever (Season 1, Episode 28 S1 E 28) - Amok Time (S 2 E 1) - Mirror, Mirror (S 2 E 4) - Journey To Babel (S 2 E 10) - The Enterprise Incident (S 3 E 2) - The Enemy Within (S 1 E 5) - The Trouble With Tribbles (S 2 E 15) - Obsession (S 2 E 13) - The Conscience Of The King (S 1 E 13) - The Squire Of Gothos (S 1 E 17) Another thought: While the first pilot, “The Cage” failed to sell the series to the network, it is actually the most ‘dead-on accurate’ of any episode, in terms of predicting where the future was headed: Talos used to be a living world, but is now a dead one, with a dying race temporarily clinging to life, underground. The Talosians are preoccupied with reliving the dreams and memories of ancestors and of other life forms - “They watch you react, to feel your emotions…” How is that different from CZcams reaction videos, and we, who watch them? The Talosians can’t rebuild their own society, but must try to do it “second-hand” by stealing other species and ‘guiding’ them. Western societies today, can’t maintain their birth rates, and are counting on immigrants from other parts of the world, to make up the difference. But most other parts of the world, now have below-replacement birth rates themselves. The Talosians find that humans don’t fit in with their plans after all - something that Western societies seem to be likewise discovering about their hoped-for rescuers. In the end, Talosians are going to perish as a species and as a civilization; The humans of Star Trek, still have a chance to live, as long as they choose as a civilization to embrace life, exploration, building and creating - rather than retreating into dreams and illusions - whether they be on the Holodeck, alien mind-control, CZcams reaction rabbit-holes, or VR-gaming and the like. Humans also need to make the kind of society where ordinary men and women continue to decide, "Yes, this way of life is worth living, and this society is worth preserving." We've got our work cut out for us.

Notice to other fans: This contains zero spoilers, don't even try. It is mostly production information which does not spoil any story elements. Besides, they've already seen the JJ movie, so the damage is done. lol Guys, this is long, but packed with unnecessary but fun detail you will want to know, I promise! ;-] You were curious about Spock, whose job here is Science Officer. You wondered why the woman, Number One, was in charge instead of him. That is not her name, "Number One" is a nickname for her job description... she holds the rank of Commander, and is the Fist Officer on the ship (officer number #1, get it?). When the captain isn't present, she is in command. But your confusion is understandable. This story happens in the past in relation to what you already know of him, so Spock was just a young science officer, with the rank of Lieutenant, back then. When you first see him in the movie, it's years later and he's already the first officer of the ship, still working under Capt. Pike. How and why a few things changed: When this TV pilot was not accepted, they were encouraged to make another attempt... a second pilot. The network said that this was a little too "cerebral" for the average audience. They also suggested to the producers that in their second pilot, they should get rid of the "guy with the ears" and, they added, no one would believe or accept a woman on the bridge, much less one with authority. May not be exact words, but it was something like that. The creator of the show, Gene Roddenberry, didn't want to get rid of both, so he compromised. He combined the two characters of Spock and Number One, into a single character. Spock became the serious, no-nonsense, seemingly emotionless alien, taking on some of her traits, and the character inherited her position as first officer. Years later, in an interview about the choice of Spock or Number One, Gene joked that he kept one of them on the show and married the other -- by the time of the interview, the actress who played Number One had become his wife, Majel Barrett Roddenberry. ;-] Oh, and since you asked: It is essential to have seen the episode "Space Seed" before you see the second film, the one from 1982 (ST II: The Wrath of Kahn) because it obviously concerns a person, and you need to know who that person is... ;-] If you're interested, the second pilot is the episode called: "Where No Man Has Gone Before". It was not broadcast first on TV, so on some lists it might appear as episode 3, or something. Cheers from Canada!

19:26 Pike: "Adam as in all ship's doctors Are Dirty Old Men." Me: "That's not how you spell Adam."

It's much better written than anything out today :)

as someone that grew up with these newer movies but has since gone back to watch the original series, I think the newer movies (the kelvin timeline) are great, and can easily be enjoyed by those who have never watched star trek before however after watching the original series, I can see why some fans might not like them as some of the characterization and tone of the story as a whole is definitely different. for example the spock/uhura romance was never a thing in the original series and feels kind of shoehorned in just to have some kind of romance to sell. the original series was also a sort of silly, monster of the week type show that didnt take itself too seriously imo, whereas the new movies definitely fit into a more steriotypical action/adventure movie format honestly i think both are great for what they are, but for older fans that wanted the new movies to be like the original series, i understand why they were disappointed!

Fun fact: Bill Pullman played Lone Starr, his Winnebago space ship is called “Eagle 5”, which is the same pilot name given to Bill Pullmans character as the President in Independence Day.

Episode suggestions: The Naked Time, Balance of Terror, Errand of Mercy, The Ultimate Computer, and The Doomsday Machine.

This was vastly different in appearance and the way the characters interacted. The energy is very different from the tv series. If you watch just one more episode before going to the 1980s movies, I suggest watching the episode, “Space Seed” because that will play a part in the second movie.

Each episode is a “what-if?”. Let’s take some idea, stretch it to extraordinarily dangerous lengths and have the Enterprise explore it. This is reminiscent of The Twilight Zone, which had just aired in the previous decade.

In the days of network television, a "pilot" is not just the first episode. It's a special episode made to convince the network to buy and produce the series. Pilot episodes were often not intended to be shown on television as-is. This pilot episode was not shown to the public in full until decades after it was made.

Let me guess: too cerebral, right?

A couple of points 1) This pilot did not air until thirty years after the series was cancelled. So it is a fun watch but technically not part of TOS. 2) Don't worry about view order for TOS. TV was episodic back in the day because local stations were responsible for the broadcasts and they messed up very frequently. There are episodes well worth skipping.

JJ Abrams has admitted that he was not a STAR TREK fan and when he was given the franchise he tried to make it more like STAR WARS rather than stay loyal to STAR TREK's original concepts and themes.

Number 1, Majel Barrett continues in the series as Nurse Chapel and the computer voice. She also married Gene Roddenberry

1. This is one of my favorite episodes in TOS. Nothing against Shatner but it's nice to see an episode where he doesn't have to carry as much. 2. Susan Oliver could have gotten it. RIP Susan Oliver😇 3. Keep going guys, you're in for a hell of a ride. Watch them all and you can decide if you like them yourselves. Like any other series there are good and some not so good. 4. You can't blame Pike for falling for Vina. She was beautiful😍😋😈 5. The Theolins are super cool. 6.Still developing character, emotionless Spock smiles when he touches the vibrating blue leaf. 7. There's a two-parter that replays this story, called "The Menagerie" that's better.

The Motion Picture isn't that bad as many say. It just takes its time to get the thing going. The cool thing is that there isn't just a cheap evil villain, there is a powerful intelligence searching for its creator. The movie got restored for 4K lately 👍

"Its not the kind of series I would like" is exactly what the Network thought when they rejected this pilot. According to Gene Roddenberry (the series creator), they said it was "too cerebral for you slobs out in the television audience". Now, you can take this with a grain of salt, as Roddenberry is well known for exaggerating his stories to varying degrees, especially the reasons for the re-casting. But the Network was right in one thing, this may not have worked as a first episode for the general audience for many reasons. Fortunately they were intrigued enough that they made the extremely rare decision to commission a second pilot episode. While "The Cage" in its original form never aired on TV (though parts of it were recycled for a later episode), the second pilot aired as the third episode in release order. If you do decide to watch through the series, I would vote for watching in Production order, rather than Release order. This way cast changes and set/wardrobe changes will make more sense.

Star Trek The Motion Picture is a good movie to me. A lot depends on your temperament with sci-fi. The pacing of the movie is slow to many. For me, there are some parts that are unnecessary, but overall the movie is decent. The director, Robert Wise, is a lot of what makes it for me. He's done a lot of good movies including the Andromeda Strain, which is a recommendation I would make for you to watch at some point.

Of course, the more Trek the better, but understandable if you can't get to the entire series. But for sure get through as much of the episodes that were listed in another comment. It'll bring a better understanding of the characters, and that dynamic btwn specifically Kirk, Spock, and McCoy is really what drives a lot of the movies. Plus as you've seen, Trek was really a trailblazer in discussing the "hot topics" of the day, and presenting a view of the future for humans that wasn't as dark as what is often seen in contemporary sci-fi, and one that offers hope to us living in the here and now. This was fun, looking forward to you learning more about this universe and seeing you grow into this family. LLAP.
