In the midst of all these "trek inconsistencies," I stumbled on (quite by
accident) a wonderfully ironic correlation between the themes from Trek 2 & 3
and the original Trek concept.
If any of you have a copy of the old "Making of Star Trek" by Stephen Whitfield
on the page before the index is a listing of the lyrics to the theme from TV
Star Trek as written by Gene Roddenberry...Remember, now, this is written in
September, 1968....Catch, in particular, the last line of the lyrics...
Beyond
The rim of the star-light
My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His Star Trek
Will go on forever
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me.
How about that?? Gene Roddenberry wrote the most important line for a movie
14 years before it was made......(st2, of course...)
Oh, well, back to the trivia mills...
