I'm off to the Bay Area on bidness. While I'm gone, entertain yourselves by boldy going to Comics Oughta Be Fun, and reading this excellent post on Trek fotonovels from the '70s.

Smell you later.

Steam Trek: The Moving Picture, an absolutely brilliant steampunk parody of Star Trek filtered through the fin de siècle cinematic sensibilities of George Melies.

In other colon-related news, I forgot to mention that while I was in the UK last week, I spotted William Shatner on the telly, whoring himself for Kellogg's All-Bran.

Media Funhouse links to this obscure clip from a failed 1965 television pilot about Alexander the Great, starring none other than a pre-Kirk William Shatner sweating and overemoting as the Greek conqueror. Batman's Adam West appears as Al's aide, Cleander. Joseph Cotton and John Cassavetes appear in the clip as well. The pilot was directed by film-noir director, Phil Karlson, who also directed Dean Martin in those campy Matt Helm spy films.

ronebofh, hepped me to this ultra-dense, collapsed YouTube star of solid Nerdtronium: a mash-up of classic Star Trek with Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Quick, someone start a Python/Trek fan convention!

UPDATE: this is an ex-YouTube clip.

This brilliant fan video of William Shatner "singing" Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds is the perfect way to start out the weekend.
