Joe talks, but a different voice is overdubbed on him NC: ( pointing) Engage overdubbing audio! Joe: Oh, come on, I've been wanting to do the speech for years! NC: Nope, I'm not allowing any quotes either, now just piss off. But do you know the ancient Klingon proverb, that tells us, "Reveng-" NC: Oh, come on, it was directed by Robert Wise, one of the greatest directors of all time! I'm sure I can get through this. Joe: But, Critic, you HAVE no idea what you're in for! NC: No, I don't! And we're not gonna do that thing where we go back and forth and then suddenly, I give in, I'm doing it alone! Joe: But surely, you need a Star Trek expert like me to help you through this. Well, not even half, more like third, uh, fifth-the fans would kill me if I didn't bring it up, so you don't need to explain it! NC: Uh, yeah, look, um, when I asked that question, I was only half-curious. The first one being that the Klingons, uh, suffer from the nekh'rat (editor: did I say that right?), which is a degenerative disease that only their species suffers from. ( NC goes from a smile to a frown) You see, there's actually several different theories that's popped up over the years. Joe: So, anyway, I wanted to point out why exactly the Klingons' heads look like that. Joe: Yeah, I know, he's obsessed with Star Trek! He's a total geek! NC: AngryJoe? Oh, thank God, I thought you were Linkara for a second! Phew! We are shown static, followed by AngryJoe on his ship NC: ( rubbing his temples) Oh, God, I was hoping I could avoid this! Looks like I have no choice, I have to face the music. NC: Well, wait a minute, in the original show, the Klingons had flat heads, ( shot of an Original Series Klingon, followed by the current version) now they're round and pointy? What's up with that? NC (vo): We cut to some anomaly in space, where the Klingons come to check it out. ( at the Co-starring part, part of the Gilligan's Island theme plays) We got William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelly. NC sighs and reaches into his pocket, taking out a penny and tossing it in the cup, followed by a coin sound from Super Mario Bros.) Thank you! Roll clip number one, energize! ( points)Ĭhester: ( imitating Scotty) I cannot do it, Critic! I don't have the power! ( normal voice, picks up his change cup) Or the, uh, money? ( jiggles his change cup. NC: And we're gonna start off with Star Trek: The Motion Picture. NC (vo): So all throughout January, we're going to look at the odd-numbered Star Trek movies, the ones that seem to get Trekkies' panties in a bundle. NC: Or it could just be a giant coincidence.Ĭhester: Damn it, ( slaps desk) I almost sounded intelli-ma-gent! For whatever reason, the odd-numbered Star Trek films seem to be the ones that get once-in-a-while viewers and die-hard fans really pissed off!Ĭhester: I believe we can attribute that to the binary structure that emanates from these movies. When it comes to the movies, the even-numbered ones seem to be the best. Everybody has an opinion on Star Trek, but there is one pattern most people seem to agree on. It's one of the greatest works of sci-fi of all time! It's the corniest schlock you'll ever watch. Its characters are timeless and unforgettable! Their personalities are on par with the Ninja Turtles. It's a great vehicle for creative ideas! It's an onslaught of clichéd writing. NC (vo): What can you say about Star Trek? Well, really? Everything. Scenes from various Star Trek movies play The opening title has Captain Kirk shouting KHAN! to the theme of Star Trek II. And welcome to Star Trek Month! ( points offscreen) Engage review! Nostalgia Critic: Hello, I'm the Nostalgia Critic.
