    Lolita Fatjo, I think I met her in OKC, not Tulsa. At the time, because of the Oklahoma Summer heat, she was wearing short shorts and a halter top and boots, and she wasn't with the actor that played "Rom" yet. When they did become a couple, she didn't dress like that anymore. But anyway, I wanted her autograph, but I didn't already have something for her to sign. So she took me around the convention floor looking for something with her image. We finally found something, I bought it, and she signed it and posed for a picture with me. After that convention, I noticed that the others began having pictures available at their tables. Serendipity? 🤔
    Brent Spiner & Colm Meaney, both appreciated that I had seen them in movies that the others never asked about. For Brent it was his version of "Rent Control" and for Colm it was something about buttons I think. I was thinking of "The Pushcart War" because I had read the book. 🤔
    Suzie? She would get the audience to help her prank the other celebrities! 😂

  • @maclen1210
    @maclen1210 3 місяці тому +1

    Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry created Data based partly on Mr. Spock, for his logical and unemotional personality and on “Questor”, an advanced android from Roddenberry’s 1974 TV pilot, The Questor Tapes”. In that pilot, Questor’s programming is tampered with by the scientists building him, thereby erasing, among other things, the human emotions he was to receive. He is therefore forced to partner with a human to achieve his true purpose in the film. I would recommend a viewing of 1974’s “The Questor Tapes”. It’s as intelligent as the original and next gen Trek.

    Since Data uses the phrase in the eulogy, perhaps consider watching _A Man for All Seasons_ (1966). The story of Sir Thomas More's contentious relationship with King Henry VIII, it won six Oscars: Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography, and Best Costume Design. It stars Paul Scofield as Thomas More, and Robert Shaw (Quint in _Jaws_ ) as Henry VIII.

    TNG has some great story telling and while Riker had some good episodes and Worf had even more; it was basically the Picard and Data show. Their centric episodes were the best the show had to offer. Nothing punched you in the heart like a Data episode.

    15:38 Mark! Vaporization we saw in the original series. It gets confusing when PHASERs shooting that host infected with parasites has the same visual effect as the weapon used by the gnarly aliens in this episode! Later on, they would call it a "disintegrator ray" that is banned for how cruel it is because the people die relatively slowly. (Unless they called it a "disruptor"? In the original series, the natives of one planet and the Klingons used the same props that were called "Sonic Disruptors" by the natives but were "Energy Disruptors" when used by the Klingons. 🤷‍♂️. But in this episode, they said "LASERs"! So once again, there's a failure with continuity, I guess. 🤔
