Who wants to see Picard, Riker, Data, Geordi, Troi, Worf, Beverly, Wesley, and even Tasha on the big screen again?

Just the other day on the podcast I was talking about how on May 19, 2005 I thought, "This will be the last time I'll get to go to a theater and ask for tickets to Star Wars" (barring repeat viewings of Ep3 of course), and then lo and behold three years later, in August 2008 I got to do it again with The Clone Wars. And then again this year with Episode 1 in 3D.

Well, now it's Star Trek's turn. Now you might be thinking, "Well...duh Nic. They're filming J.J. Abrams' second Trek film now. You and a few others are talking about it on the ID Forums." True. But this is something different. Something very different.

StarTrek.com is reporting today about a special one-night-only event in movie theaters across the country on Monday, July 23rd. Two episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation will be shown in theaters ("“Where No One Has Gone Before” and “Datalore,”), along with a sneak peek at some of the special features on the TNG Season One Blu-ray (which will be releasing the following day). Also, there will be an extended preview of the Season One Blu-Ray, and an extended preview of Season Two, which they are announcing will be released later this year.

It's probably not too far out of line for me to go ahead and say it here and now: Josh, Todd, and I will be there!

Peace and Long Life,
