LONDON, England (Reuters) -- The crew of the Starship Enterprise have
sprung to the defense of Trekkies -- No, they are not obsessive
weirdos who need to get a life.
The message from Troi, Data and Captain Jean-Luc Picard was the same:
stop being mean to Star Trek fans.
Captain Kirk, alias Hollywood Star William Shatner, poked gentle fun
at the Trekkies in his book "Get A Life," mocking their meticulous
attention to detail in the five television series and 10 Star Trek
movies.
But Patrick Stewart, the bald-headed British classical actor who plays
Captain Picard and bestrides the most famous bridge in space, was much
more charitable about the Star Trek devotees. Stewart, in London for
the premiere of "Star Trek Nemesis" and the launch of a new Star Trek
Exhibition, did concede: "There are a tiny percentage of Star Trek
fans who might be categorized as obsessive."
But he defended the vast majority who revel in one of cinema's
longest-running and most successful franchises that has earned more
than $1 billion at the box office. "I know fans who would not dream of
missing an episode who are Vice Chancellors of Universities,
internationally famous classical musicians, opera singers,
celebrities, members of President Bush's cabinet, high-ranking members
of the military," he told reporters. "These are not people that you
would want to be apprehensive about. They are fascinating to meet."
The American actor Brent Spiner, who has portrayed the android Data
for all seven seasons of the television series "Star Trek: The Next
Generation," is equally loyal. "I think Trekkies get a really bad
rap," he said. "For some reason, they have this reputation for being
really peculiar. I don't think they are."
"At a Star Trek convention, there are 2,000 to 3,000 people and maybe
about 25 who have uniforms and make-up on. The rest are just people
who watch Star Trek and enjoy it. They are not anywhere so peculiar as
football fans. Nobody ever gets hurt at a Star Trek convention," he
added.
But when it comes to devotion to the fan base, English actress Marina
Sirtis knows no equal as a convention regular. Sirtis, who portrays
the half-human, half-Betazoid Commander Deanna Troi, said of the
Trekkies: "They are very knowledgeable and ardent fans."
"I can't say anything bad against them," Sirtis said. "Because of
them, I have a really nice house in Los Angeles, I drive a Porsche, I
have nice clothes, I have my lovely American husband and all the bits
that go with it." She added, "So I say 'God bless them for turning on
their television sets every day.'"

 Ecco, evviva la sincerita' :-)
oddio, 'lovely American husband' , ma se e' un mostro!!  LOL
cmq a me ha fatto spanciare Spiner:
"At a Star Trek convention, there are 2,000 to 3,000 people and maybe
about 25 who have uniforms and make-up on."
perche' e' ovvio che sono quelli in uniforme che sono i pazzi lunatici
che andrebbero ricoverati immediatamente , se uno non e' in uniforme
e' una persona normalissima :-))

 their television sets every day.'"
Perché la fanno apparire come una perfetta idiota quando questa donna è
un genio? :-)
Oddio: dopo Wheaton potrei pure cominciare a rivalutare la Sirtis.
TERRORE!
Ciao,
 Emmanuele (:-DDDD).

 almeno non ci picchiamo per chi e' il personaggio migliore ;-D
Mentre leggevo quello che hai scritto mi e' venuto in mente
cosa potrebbe succedere se i trekkers fossero come i tifosi di calcio:
a) una percentuale dei piu scalmanati avrebbe il biglietto omaggio
     per poter assistere ai film di ST;
b) davanti ai cinema dove trasmettono "Nemesis", scontri tra
     pro-Fed e pro-Romulani, con il giornalista che ha detto
     "Romuliani" che deve fuggire a gambe levate inseguito
     da entrambe le fazioni;
c) telefilm delle serie basate su Star Trek trasmessi
     in prime time, con tanto di trasmissioni dedicate a
     commentare gli episodi;
d) la "Gazzetta di Spock" tutti i lunedi in edicola.
Uhm! Alcuni sviluppi sarebbero anche interessanti ma
la remota possibilita di vedere il lunedi sera Biscardi
in pigiamino azzurro con le orecchie a punta e che inizia
i discorsi dicendo "gome direbbe Misder Sbock ..."
mi riempie di terrore. ;-)
