Thank you all for your info and directions to various theatres were Star Trek II is playing. I went to the one at the Somerville Circle (it is also at the Amboy Cinema 6) yesterday afternoon during the dinner show when the crowd was light and I had a GREAT time!! I highly recommend it to any old trekkies or trekkors (please let me know if you need an explanation of the difference between the two). For all of you out there who aren't going because "I'd look at Ricardo Montalban (aka Khan) and think of 'Fantasy Island'" don't worry. He's as mean and nasty as when he played the role 15 years ago in one of the episodes of the original series! There's NO WAY after 10 minutes you'll think of him as Mr. Rourke of Fantasy Island! The SPFX are quite good and he flavor of the movie is very much like the old series. So go enjoy. Jim Collymore (Live Long and Prosper) ps I would like to exchange ideas on a few quirks of the movie for those interested (some loose ends that hint at the basis of the sequel have gotten me thinking). Please mail comments to me.
