I Thought They Were Supposed to Find Some Whales or Something
GeekTyrant dug up this silent but kinda awesome footage of a 1975 Star Trek convention held in Chicago, which featured an entire Enterprise crew reunion. I mean everybody — Shatner, Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, Nichelle Nichols, Walter Koenig, and George Takei, who, it might be mentioned, was clearly the pimpingest dude in the entirety of the ’70s. I can’t even imagine being there and a Trek fan, and seeing the entire crew back together. Wow.
