I was what….15 when the TV series started. Now I'm 57. I've been a fan all those years.
(note to Shatner: I know it's not real….I do have a life), But, oh the fun of dreaming of being on the ship…..part of the crew. Now, this wonderful gift back to me (and the other fans) proove that there really was something SPECIAL about the show(s)….and the lucky, talanted people who were a part of it all.
God bless you and thank you for all your hard work, great acting, and for keeping it all going. It's been a pleasure moving throught life, if not together, then parallel with you all.

:-).

Sorry to say this but the ships didn't seem up to par with the quality of the TV series… They seemed like something out of a video game, not very realistic or detailed.

Ya, I seen it the first day it came out… after holding my breath for over a year. Kinda sucked, and very amatureish for someone like Tuvok (Tim Russ). Sorry to have to flame like that. Robert out.

Roofoo: A quickie youtube preview of the original story is here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7p0hRyQFVnQ
The story is called "Charlie X". A ship called the Antares rescues a boy named Charlie Evans from the planet Thesus. A ship had crashed there 14 years earlier, and Charlie was the sole survivor. The Antares crew praises Charlie, and hastily depart, leaving Charlie on the Enterprise. When nearly out of communication range, the Antares tries to warn the Enterprise about Charlie, but then the Antares disintegrates. Charlie makes (unwanted) advances to Yeoman Rand. His affection is unrequited. After a series of events where Charlie shows both bad temper and dangerous psychokinetic abilities, Kirk and Spock try to confine Charlie (without success). Charlie then takes over the ship. Kirk and Spock then try to overwhelm Charlie by turning every function on the ship on. This is not successful, but the Thesian ship arrives to rescue the Enterprise. The dialogue follows:
I have taken my form centuries ago,
so that I may communicate with you.
We did not realize until too late
that the boy had gone.
We are saddened that his escape
cost the lives of the first ship.
We could not help them,
but we have returned your people
and your ship to you.
Everything is as it was.
Oh, I won't do it again.
Please, I'll be good.
I won't ever do it again.
I'm sorry about the Antares.
I'm sorry!
When I came aboard!
Please?
I want to go with you.
Help me!
The boy belongs with his own kind.
That would be impossible.
We can teach him to live in our society.
If he can be taught not to use his power…
We gave him power so he could live.
He will use it always,
and he would destroy you and your kind,
or you would be forced to destroy him
to save yourselves.
Is there nothing you can do?
We offer him life,
and we will take care of him.
Come, Charles.
Oh, please…
Don't let them take me.
I can't even touch them!
Janice…
They can't feel.
Not like you!
They don't love!
Please…
I want to stay…
stay…
stay…
stay…
stay…
stay…
stay.

Cool. Did anybody else get confused by the story though? I'm not a big Trekkie (I prefer Star Wars) so maybe somebody can enlighten me on what happened when the psychic guy went through the portal thing? Why did everything change?
