Paul Mazursky

Sad to hear of the passing of Actor and Director Paul Mazursky  who was lauded for his directorial satires like Bob and Ted and Carol and Alice, and  An Unmarried Woman. Mazursky also acted in many TV shows and movies, including Deathwatch (1966) where he started his lifelong friendship with Leonard Nimoy.  Our deepest condolences to his family and friends; the movie industry needs more directors like Mazursky now more than ever.

Here’s a lovely, funny video of Mazursky chatting with Nimoy.  Rest in Peace, Mr. Mazursky.  😦

Wideo Wednesday — Tiny Trekkie Review’s “Mirror, Mirror”

If this isn’t the cutest Star Trek review I’ve ever seen, I’ll eat my IDIC!

Little Sarai  has done several of these reviews, and they’re just adorable. Here she reviews Mirror Mirror alongside her Woody Mirror Spock doll! She mimics the actors perfectly; especially “Spock, you traitorous pig!”  You can see more of her reviews here.  Be sure to watch here one of “The Pizza Monster” too!

Live long and Prosper,Sweetheart! Here begins a lifetime love affair!

My Weekly Spock: Blooper Fun!

I only wish there were more! Blooper and on set silliness on the Trek set… In the last shot, Nimoy looks surprising a lot like Quinto!

FArFri: ‘Fierce and Loyal’ by Stumpaa

For this week’s Fan Art, here’s an astonishing portrait of Spock by artist Stumpaa.  He is truly fierce and loyal. No doubt inspired by Patterns of Force.

Wideo Wednesday – Spock & McCoy Banter and Friendship Part I

The group geso101’s channel on YouTube put together this wonderful compilation of Spock/McCoy moments! Not only does it show what was really a ‘bromance’ between these two opposites, it also reminds one of the excellent writing in the series!  Love these two.  Looking forward to ‘Part II’, and I’ll post it here when it arrives.

By the way, I’m working on a Trek compilation of my own!  Hope to have it up next week, stay tuned.  🙂

My Weekly Spock: Some Archival Goodness…

I found some great archival stuff for this week: First, what appears to be a collection of some Trek/Nimoy goodness from a teenager’s bedroom wall in 1967, then a detail of the movie magazine article “My Other Life” below. (Don’t you love the first person narrative there? No doubt written by someone else!)   I don’t know it there’s more to that article, but if I find more, you’ll see it here.  I love finding Nimoy stuff in old teen magazines.  You’ll also note there’s some badly colorized pictures here from the Trek set (T’Pring in Red!)  Enjoy!  il_570xN.448926119_g008 887d49c2a79df9a8057588de438aec75

FArFri – Enterprise Crew in Letters & Quotes by Mel Viera

This week’s fan art is a clever rendering the Enterprise crew in simple lines and alphabet letters! (Note how the characters are made up from letters in their names) The works are by artist Mel Viera a.k.a. Cego Cohler on Deviant  Art.  I love the quotes!  (And even though Kirk’s line is from one of the movies, it’s one of my favorites  🙂

A Quick Guideline About Reader Comments

comment guidelinesHi Everybody,

Believe it or not, Trekkerscrapbook has been around for Three Years now! (yay!)  And as a service to new and old members, please observe these  gentle guidelines about making comments here.  And remember to  have fun, Thanks, Therese, (Benevolent Vulcan High Priestess)

Guidelines:

  1. Comments must be limited to 300 words or less.  Besides, if a reader will see a very long comment, they are very likely to ignore it.
  2. NO SPOILERS.  Since everyone here has probably seen every episode of the original Star Trek you may discuss all aspects of TOS openly However, not everyone has seen the newer incarnations (fan versions) of Trek, including Star Trek Continues and Star Trek Phase II and any new Star Trek movies too. Speculation beforehand is fine, but any spoiler written before I have submitted a review will not be approved.
  3. This is a family site, so please be civil and polite.  Comments with profanity, rudeness, and vitriol will not be approved.
  4. If you disagree with a post or comment, feel free to argue, but please keep your points simple and concise as needed (no need for in-depth analysis).
  5. No Spam or advertising.  (but you can recommend other  fun Trek sites you’ve seen).
  6. No phone #’s, e-mails, or other personal social network information about yourself or anyone you know or especially anyone related to Star Trek.  I treasure your privacy as I do my own.

And please just enjoy  my posts and each others company.   Remember, this is a happy Trek haven.  We’re here to have fun.  Thank you.
