      It was only appropriate that Billy Nye say a few words before the Governors Award presentation for  <em>Star Trek </em>at the Creative Arts Emmys. After being introduced by Hayma Washington, Nye said of  <em>Star Trek</em>: “It may have started off as an entertainment series but it changed the world — and I feel that it changed the world for the better.” The monolithic sci-fi franchise, as Nye put it, looked at how takes a look at the universe and beyond in “perfect and imperfect harmony.”…

      Five Abandoned Star Trek Movies You’ll Never Get to See

      It’s been 50 years since Captain James T Kirk and pointy-eared pal Spock first strode onto our television screens, bringing us wide-eyed Apollo-era optimism, the world’s first interracial TV snog and furry space critters named Tribbles. It would be another 13 years, in the wake of Star Wars’ spectacular box office success, before the crew of the Enterprise made it to the big screen with 1979’s middling ‘Star Trek: The Motion Picture’. Since then there have been a round dozen films in total, with a 13th, the Simon Pegg-penned ‘Star Trek: Beyond’, due to hit multiplexes later this month.

Fox’s ‘Teen Wolf’ celebrates its 30th anniversary, we expose cinema’s most heinous efforts to plunder quick money by adding to a franchise (hint: it includes 1987’s rubbish ‘Teen Wolf Too’). Yes it was made by the Cartoon Network, but Josh Flitter’s effort as Ace’s son demonstrates just how startling Jim Carrey’s performance is. Jamie Kennedy plays a man who finds the original mask and conceives a baby while still wearing it (ewwww), thus bestowing the powers of Norse god Loki on his son.

      William Shatner On His Deathbed Rift With Leonard Nimoy

      William Shatner has told how his friend and former co-star Leonard Nimoy stopped talking to him in the years before his death. A rift developed between the two, one that Shatner says he is still confounded by, particularly because he describes Nimoy as the only real friend he ever had. In a new book by Shatner called ‘Leonard: My Fifty-Year Relationship With A Remarkable Man’, he says the pair stopped talking after Nimoy said he wouldn’t be involved in a film Shatner was making.

      William Shatner Won’t Return As Kirk In Star Trek Beyond

      Despite rumours that the 84-year-old ‘Star Trek’ star would reprise the role of Captain Kirk in ‘Star Trek Beyond’, it seems he won’t be beaming back aboard the Enterprise after all. Of course, his ‘Star Trek’ co-star Leonard Nimoy had already appeared in nostalgia-inducing cameos in both ‘Star Trek’ and ‘Star Trek Into Darkness’… and Shatner even came close to appearing in the 2009 reboot.

      William Shatner may not have been able to attend Leonard Nimoy’s funeral (he was out of town at a charity function), but that didn’t stop the original Captain Kirk from paying tribute to his old friend in the most amazing fashion. The former ‘Star Trek’ actor cryptically put out a request for “Live Long and Prosper” selfies to his 2.2m Twitter followers at the start of August, saying: “I need everyone’s help. The photo showing Leonard Nimoy making the famous Vulcan hand gesture is made up of thousands of selfies each one showing ‘Star Trek’ fans mirroring the “Live Long and Prosper” pose.
