Yep. Many people for example mistakenly think Los Angeles is near Disneyland.

If only I had a transporter available.

I was coming from Riverside County.

You mean INTakes from Ryan’s Edits? He takes scenes any replaces parts with a blooper of that scene.

That channel did it for the entire franchise, not just TNG, but I assume TNG has the most bloopers available.

🤭 Thanks. Unfortunately, unless I planned a better day to Agua Dulce (the city which Vasquez Rocks is located), I wouldn’t dare make the drive again. On a Saturday, there was so much traffic for the 64 mile drive.

I mean, Raffi lived here. Memory Alpha says the appearances in PIC are Vasquez Rocks, not a differently named location.

I think it is just meant to be silly.

I just realized this might be the same plaque that was from the set.

Many other episodes and not just TOS, filmed there.

Not this. This is pretty far removed from urban. 40 miles doesn’t seem like much unless you drove 2 hours to get there.

40 miles from Universal Studios that is.

I believe the plaque, as well as other parts of the set built for The Klingon Encounter (which was original to Star Trek: The Experience) had names of people who worked on it hidden throughout.

That is why I asked.

For those unaware, Garrett Wang has discussed many times that on his way to his Voyager audition, he almost ran over Harrison Ford at Paramount Studios.

Dirty Laundry is a game show on Dropout where guest (mainly comedians) drink cocktails and guess each other’s secrets.

EDIT: Just to be clear, this wasn’t Garrett, and that isn’t a secret. And no one brings that up.

New Key West Tourism Ad (startrek.website)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by hopesdead@startrek.website to c/tenforward@lemmy.world
 

Heard a tourism ad for Key West, Florida which has the line “There’s only one road into Key West[…]” on The D-Con Chamber podcast. This is where my mind went.

 

EDIT: For anyone doubting the validity of a YouTube channel, Ellie Littlechild and Seán Ferrick are people that attend Trek events. I met Seán at STLV last year. On top of this they have interviewed Mulgrew. While this news is unconfirmed as Ellie stated, Seán relayed this information second hand from Star Trek: The Cruise, which featured the cast of Voyager for its 30th anniversary.

 

This special announcement comes after previously announcing Bruce Greenwood (Captain Pike) and Jennifer Morrison (Winona Kirk) from ST09 for the convention.

 

Various ticket packages are available (which mainly include access to the park itself). Tickets start at $74 (Sunday dates), $79 (Friday dates) and $84 (Saturday dates).

If you are interested in cosplaying, the website has a list of restrictions. The ones I noted that would apply to Trekkies are no phasers, no balloons (I saw a person with balloons at STLV), or service animals in costume/part of costume (I saw this too at STLV). So please read the list before dressing up.
