星空奇遇記 STAR Trek
網友們都發覺我醉心科幻故事 Science Fiction, 而 Star Trek 星空奇遇記 是表表者。 有 Star Trek.com 網頁， 集有所有 星空奇遇記 的禮品商品發售，可以郵購添。
星空奇遇記 Star Trek, 經過超過四十年，共有五個不同製作： 從原裝正版的 Star Trek, 跟著有 Star Trek - The Next Generation 簡稱 TNG， 有較近年期的 Deep Space Nine, The Voyager, The Enterprise 等等，此外還有多部電影。
星空奇遇記 Star Trek 是最早期製作，共有 80集，主要人物有 Captain Kirk 卻克隊長， Mr. Spock 冼樸先生 (科學官 ~ 火神星人）， Doctor McCoy 麥哥醫生， Scottie 史葛（工程師）， Mr. Sulu 蘇奴（領行員），胡玉娜上尉 Uhura（通訊員）， 等等。我不是那個年代，配了粵語的電視片集沒有看過，但曾經在八十年代拍過幾部 Star Trek電影，有以上人物做故事骨幹，還找回所有演員回來合演，所以略有認識，此外還有幸在路途上，可以在外國電視頻道，收看得到，相信在香港是沒有得重播了。
認識最深，看得較多的，當然是 Star Trek the Next Generation ～TNG , 共 178集 當年明珠臺都有得播映，每個星期一集，當年雖然迷上足球，但還是乖乖的趕回家看，錄影錄像都有, 但父親大人，會唔覺意刪掉，丟了就喊都無謂。 太空船 Enterprise 上有 主要角色 ，Captain Picard （隊長）， Riker （first officer）， Data (second officer）， Beverly （醫生）， Troy（Councillor）， Geordi（工程師），和 Worf （保安主管）等等 骨幹演員。除了電視片集，另外也有TNG的電影 也曾看過。
其他的我在外國短期逗留時都有看過，Deep Space Nine, The Voyager, The Enterprise, 但是印像不深刻，早已經忘記，故事和劇中人物。
2006 年 派拉蒙公司製作了 STAR TREK 40th Anniversary Tribute （1966 - 2006 ）紀念特輯 ，開場的一段，背景音樂也是用了 TNG 裡面 The Inner Light 一集的音樂。除了幽怨的笛子外，還配上了管弦樂伴奏，且外五代的「星空奇遇記」，主角人物都會一一出現，敬請欣賞。

「我離港前到過一間精神科醫院。當時有位病人禮貌地問，一個以作為世上最悠久民主政體而自傲的國家，如何能夠將此地交給一個政治制度非常不同的國家，且既沒諮詢當地公民，又沒給予他們民主的前景，好讓他們捍衞自己的將來。一個隨行同事說，奇怪，香港提出最理智問題的人，竟在精神科醫院。」彭定康 金融時報 “During a visit to a mental hospital before I left Hong Kong, a patient politely asked me how a country that prided itself on being the oldest democracy in the world had come to be handing over his city to another country with a very different system of government, without either consulting the citizens or giving them the prospect of democracy to safeguard their future. Strange, said one of my aides, that the man with the sanest question in Hong Kong is in a mental hospital.”Chris Patten Financial Times

棄卒的憤惱
棄卒的憤惱
等足三年 星空奇遇記迷 trekkie 嗜悲，卒之 等到 新版 J. J. Abrams 版 的第三集 Star Trek 上映，至於好不好看呢？
嗜悲 是看 Star Trek： the next generation TNG 長大的一群，是為 trekkie 也！！！ 原裝 60年代的 電視版，只從外國的 science channel 看過幾集，舊人主演電影倒也看過幾次，大多都是在電視重播中曾經看過，略有印象。
新舊兩批演員的對照
。
。
新的一輯 星空奇遇記 Star Trek， 由 J. J. Abrams 一手一腳揍大， 已經拍到了第三集，今次 J. J. Abrams 只做監製 producer，因為受聘導演另一部經典 星球大戰：原力覺醒 Star Wars: The Force Awakens，所以把 director 導演一職，交棒給 台灣 Justin Lin （Fast and Furious系列） 林詣彬 操刀。
而演 輪機部工程師總管 Scotty 的 Simon Pegg 有份創作第三集劇本，不過還有一個遺憾，演 俄國籍隊員 Pavel Chekov 的 Anton Yelchin，在拍畢全片後，最近不幸遇上意外死亡，成為最後遺作 RIP！！！
。
。
Star Trek 3： Beyond 港譯：星空奇遇記 超域時空 7月 21日 香港首映，比起北美 7月 22日 上映還要早一天。其實在今年年頭，已經看過第一個 trailer 預告片，但當時還未知有本港上映日期 。。。。。。嗜悲 餓了 Star Trek 很久 等到頸都長，於是在最早時間入戲院去觀看。
故事：（含劇透 可以 skip 在香港主要院線經已落畫）
【維基百科】Three years into its five-year mission, the USS Enterprise arrives at Starbase Yorktown, a massive space station, to replenish dwindling supplies while the crew takes shore leave.
Struggling to find continued meaning in their mission, Captain James Kirk has applied for a promotion to Vice Admiral. He recommends Spock as the new captain of the Enterprise. Meanwhile, Hikaru Sulu reunites with his spouse and daughter, Spock and Nyota Uhura have amicably ended their relationship, and Montgomery Scott works to keep the ship operational. Spock also receives word from New Vulcan that Ambassador Spock has passed away.
An escape pod drifts out of a nearby nebula. The survivor, Kalara, claims her ship is stranded on Altamid, a planet in the nebula, and the Enterprise is dispatched on a rescue mission.
The rescue turns into an ambush when the Enterprise is overwhelmed by a massive swarm of ships and is badly damaged. The swarm's alien commander, Krall and his crew board the ship, and unsuccessfully search for an alien artifact called the Abronath that Kirk that obtained on a recent mission. The swarm demolishes the Enterprise, and the saucer section crashes to the planet as the crew abandons ship in escape pods.
預告片 I
【維基百科】On the planet's surface, Sulu, Uhura and other surviving crew are captured by Krall. Kirk and navigator Pavel Chekov, accompanied by Kalara, find the crashed saucer section. Kalara is discovered to be Krall's ally when she attempts to retrieve the Abronath for him.
To escape Krall's soldiers, Kirk activates the still-functional boosters, causing the saucer to lurch forward and fatally crush Kalara. Meanwhile, a seriously wounded Spock and Dr. Leonard McCoy search for the other survivors.
Spock tells McCoy that he intends to leave Starfleet to continue the late Ambassador Spock's work on New Vulcan.
預告片 II
【維基百科】Meanwhile, Scott is rescued by Jaylah, a scavenger who previously escaped Krall's encampment. She takes him to her makeshift home, the wreck of the USS Franklin, an early-generation Starfleet vessel that went missing over a hundred years ago.
With Scott's help, the ship is repaired, and he, Kirk, Chekov, and McCoy and Spock are reunited and use the ship as a base. The group plot to raid Krall's camp to rescue the crew and transport them to the Franklin, then escape the planet.
Meanwhile, Krall coerces a member of Kirk's crew to hand over the Abronath that she had kept hidden for Kirk. The Abronath is the missing half of an ancient bioweapon, created by the planet's original inhabitants, that can disintegrate a humanoid lifeform in seconds.
With the device now complete, Krall intends to attack Yorktown and kill its inhabitants, and, using its advanced technology, go on to attack the Federation. Kirk and the others free the crew as Krall launches from the planet with the bioweapon, leading his fleet to Yorktown.
預告片 III 含主題曲
【維基百科】The Enterprise crew pursues Krall in the Franklin. Scott transports Spock and McCoy into one of Krall's drone ships. After ejecting the pilots they discover how the drone vessels coordinate.
Krall's communications is disrupted with VHF transmissions, causing mass confusion that results in the fleet's destruction. Krall and his three remaining officers crash in Yorktown. As Krall escapes into the city, Uhura and Kirk discover from the Franklin's logs that 'Krall' is actually Balthazar Edison, the original captain of the Franklin.
A pre-Federation human soldier, Edison became disillusioned after peace was established throughout the galaxy - believing other alien races will always be potential threats. When he and his two remaining crew were stranded on Altamid by a rogue wormhole, he believed the Federation had deliberately abandoned him. Having prolonged their lives with the vampiric technology of the planet's extinct natives (at the cost of their human biology), and re-purposing that species' dormant drone workers into the swarm, he now plans to destroy the Federation in revenge.
Kirk pursues Krall, who has consumed enough human life energy to pass as a humanoid, into the Yorktown's ventilation system where Krall attempts to unleash the bioweapon. Kirk forces Krall into a portal, causing the weapon and Krall to be ejected into space and perish. Spock and McCoy save Kirk before he is also blown into space.
主題曲 由 Rihanna 主唱
【維基百科】Kirk is offered the promotion to Vice Admiral, but he opts to remain as captain. Spock chooses to stay in Starfleet and resumes his relationship with Uhura. Jaylah is accepted into Starfleet Academy on Scotty's recommendation and with Kirk's influence. As the crew celebrates Kirk's birthday, they view the construction of their new ship, the USS Enterprise-A.
讀英文 維基百科 star trek beyond 記載，因為 J. J. Abrams 只能做監製，導演不停換人直至 Justin Lin 接手才定了下來。不過，個劇本卻因為換導演而不斷修改，最後由 Simon Pegg 操刀，才開始拍攝。卻又剪完片後，臨尾尾又要補戲，真的是一波三折，所以入場前 嗜悲 不敢寄予厚望。
我見：
整個故事是基於，federation of planets 和 Klingon empire 世界 的戰爭結束後，有戰功的軍人解甲回歸民事，於是被安置轉職做探索太空深處，變成像 哥倫布 麥哲倫 般的所謂 explorer 成為 探險家 。。。。
這些軍人因為不再為所用，成為冗員唯有安置他們做明為探索太空，實在卻是把他們放逐遠方，federation 眼不見為淨，他們在遠方星系遇到意外 流落異鄉，發出求救訊號上百年也沒有拯救隊來救援，因為他們其實是 federation 軍方的 “棄卒”，沒有人留意到他們！！！
年復一年的等候救援，到最後過了一百多年後，這份 “棄卒的憤惱” 燃起了報復的念頭，誓要毀滅放棄他們的地球人類社會，故事於是展開 。。。。。
至於，渡過地球一百多年生存而不死，不在今次討論之列，因為所謂地球上的時間觀念，在無邊無際浩瀚的太空，悠久的太空歷史比起地球的歷史，地球時間根本就只是一瞬間一眨眼之間，故此今趟不作深入研究，因為以前 嗜悲 舊文已經討論過幾次。
值得一提是，這班棄卒發動的攻擊是 “蟻多摟死象”，成億上萬億的小太空戰機，集結一起時像一艘巨大太空船，分散時分途出擊，千方萬面的向著 Captain Kirk 的 Enterprise 企業號太空船發動攻擊，多到連死光砲死光魚雷，企業號連珠礮發打極都打不完，最後全船被毀 Captain Kirk 被逼下令棄船，隊員們乘坐救生囊包 capsules 分散流落到，一百年前棄卒們落難後寄居的星球上，大多都即時變成了俘虜。
然而，Captain Kirk 雖然幸運沒有被俘虜，他絕對沒有放棄過，更沒準備拋棄他的隊員，單憑自己的力量，團結僅有未被俘虜的隊員，更聯合對方的敵人，拯救被俘虜的隊員們出險，然後再設法追趕上，去打敗棄卒們打算去襲擊 Starbase Yorktown 太空站 的大軍。
至於，最後 Captain Kirk 如何率領僅存的隊員，趕返去拯救在 Starbase Yorktown 太空站的人類，用甚麼妙著打敗這 “蟻多摟死象” 戰術呢？就留下讓各位自己去看電影（尚餘九龍新界小量戲院上映港島沒有得看），or 或者將來看影碟時解答吧。
視覺上的緊張刺激，當然更勝上兩集由 J. J. Abrams 導演的 star trek，因為今次是由 台灣 Justin Lin 執導，他的成名作 Fast and Furious系列 不用細表，林詣彬 處理動作場面和速度感，於視覺表達方式屢有創新，已是當今世上屬第一流。
故事方面，總算表達了兩個 concepts，如何處理多 ”出來的冗員” 和 “蟻多摟死象”，值得深入探討和思考，不會只是一味只有豐富動作場面，卻故事單調薄弱的弊病，劇本保留 star trek 一向一貫的風格。
Star Trek 星空奇遇記 故事本來就是 探索太空 尋找 新世界 新物種 新文化 無遠弗屆
Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before.
主演老版 冼樸 的 Leonard Nimoy (March 26, 1931 – February 27, 2015) 去年逝世，因此需要完結他的戲份。在本片中也加入 老冼樸 去世的交代，臨完場 年輕版的 冼樸，打開了 年老版 冼樸 的遺物，裡面有一幅舊相片：
是對 60年代 Star Trek 的致敬吧！
。
。
對於 trekkies 應該是頗滿意的一部 star trek 電影，但對 star trek 比較陌生的一群年輕觀眾們，若只要求視覺上和官能刺激，也是可以收貨的！！！
不過若要求較高，要求對故事性的完整，除非你是一向有追看 star trek 電視劇或電影的話，有些情節轉折位，需要對以往的 star trek 有認識才會看得明白，和明白為何要有此一著，並可以發出會心微笑 。。。。。。否則只單看這一部 Star Trek 可能只會一頭霧水！！！
編劇們除了要爭取取悅年輕觀眾，也和照顧 60年代已經追隨 Star Trek 的老觀眾，給他們頗多 nostalgia 懷舊一番！！！

Star Trek Reboot：報復 復仇 報仇 —— 雪恨！
幾年來都沒有 Star Trek 星空奇遇記，這個系列的電影上，Trekker/Trekkie 們，粉絲們，都望穿秋水。
直到有聲氣話開拍星空奇遇記的前傳，講的是 Captain James T. Kirk 卻克隊長，和 Mr. Spock 冼撲先生，兩人年青時代，初初入 Star Fleet 的故事，兩人剛剛由 Star Fleet 學堂出來，第一次的太空任務。
千呼萬喚始出來的 Star Trek 北美五月七日上映 港譯：星空奇遇記 六月四日上映 Trailers & Clips 作為 Star Trek 系列粉絲的我，無論北美影評點踩，無論幾多劣評都好，幾大都入場看看嘞。

英文簡介話由 Zachary Quinto 演嫰的 Younger Mr. Spock，Chris Pine 演 James T. Kirk，Leonard Nimoy 做成年的 Mr. Spock，會利用 time travel 出現亮相，但唔見到一向演開 卻克隊長的 William Shatner 出現在 Casting 噃，睇嚟沒冇份演出了。
Starring：Bruce Greenwood Captain Christopher Pike 太空船船長 皮克，Chris Pine James Tiberius Kirk 占士卻克（將來的船長），Zachary Quinto Younger Spock 冼樸先生（將來的科學主管），Karl Urban Dr.Leonard Bones McCoy 麥哥（將來的醫生），Simon Pegg Montgomery "Scotty" Scott 史葛（將來的工程師），Zoe Saldana Nyota Uhura 胡玉娜（將來的通訊主管），John Cho Hikaru Sulu 蘇奴 （將來的駕駛員），Anton Yelchin Pavel Checkov （將來的領航員）。 還有 Leonard Nimoy Spock Prime 冼樸先生（原裝的），Eric Bana Captain Nero 報復者。
未入場之前，上網讀讀北美雅虎電影的觀眾評論，並非一致都認好睇，看得明的說比之前的 Star Trek 電影好看。也有一些觀眾，被過去現在將來三個時空，加上 time travelling，弄不清楚看不明，就說不好看。
故事：
一開始時，占士卻克還未出生，他的爸爸 佐治卻克服役的太空船，被神秘外星太空船襲擊受到重創，太空船船長自己駕駛穿梭小飛船，到敵人太船上談判，臨危授命 佐治卻克為代理船長，未幾船長就被殺了，而 佐治卻克的太太，占士卻克的媽媽，正要臨盤生下 占士卻克，佐治卻克為了掩護太太和初生兒子，轉乘穿梭小飛船逃命，在命令棄船讓船員逃生，自己就把太空船衝去外星太空船，阻截外星人追殺，壯烈犧牲了。
沒有爸爸的年輕 占士卻克，當然就是一個反叛的年輕人，沒有人生目標，直到老爸 佐治卻克的一個老友 皮克船長，把他拉入 Star Fleet 受訓。而年幼的冼樸，就因為有著父親是火神星人的邏輯基因，和地球人母親的情緒化基因，面臨心內闘爭，一直到都在困惑中成長，最後他推卻了火神星的最高學府，選擇加入 Star Fleet 地球的星際艦隊。
轉眼 占士卻克二十五歲，外星太空船再次出現，皮克船長負責帶領一班剛受訓完的 Star Fleet 新人，登上 Enterprise 出征，皮克船長意味占士卻克，有著他父親的優良基因，對他另眼相看，委以重任。
原來外星太空船是由報復者指揮，他們的 Romulan 星球，被將來的老冼樸錯誤毀滅了，就利用連接兩個時空的 Worm Hole，返到廿五年前企圖先殺了年輕的冼樸，但卻錯殺了 老卻克。之後又再次回來，再想先殺了年輕的 冼樸，而老冼樸也跟著追到來，但已經遲來一步，Vulcan 的火神星被全個被毀滅了，年輕的冼樸及時逃生，但冼樸的地球人母親卻不幸死去，報復者就繼續追殺年輕 冼樸，並企圖毀滅地球。
同時 皮克船長被外星人捉去，咁老冼樸就拉攏綴合， 年輕的占士卻克和年輕的冼樸，兩個心高氣傲的年青俊彥，帶領一班將來 Enterprise 的骨幹船員，Dr.Leonard Bones McCoy 麥哥醫生，Montgomery "Scotty" Scott 工程師 史葛，Nyota Uhura 通訊主管 胡玉娜，Hikaru Sulu 駕駛員 蘇奴，Pavel Checkov 領航員 芝戈夫，去阻止外星報復者進攻地球。
結局當然是星星雙惜的兩位 rivalries 卻克和冼樸，成功把報復者的一伙 Romulan 外星人殲滅，細節就請各位入場睇睇電影了。占士卻克亦確立他在隊員中的權威，Star Fleet 正式委任他為 Enterprise 的船長，聯同 冼樸帶領隊員乘坐 Enterprise 傲遊星空。
我見：
故事十分之簡單，一方面是一個背負整個 Romulan 外星人種，慘被老冼樸錯誤滅絕的報復者，有殺錯無放過。利用 Worm Hole 回到廿五年前，先錯殺了 占士卻克的爸爸，繼而又利用 Worm Hole 回來，錯殺了冼樸的母親。
另一方面，一個是為父報仇的卻克，一個是為母報仇的冼樸，很有中國武俠小說的橋段，究竟邊個才是對，邊個才是錯呢？就像猶太人和巴勒斯坦人阿拉伯人，塞爾維亞人和波斯尼亞人，仇恨、報仇、報復，沒完沒了，斬草不除根，春風吹又生！
今次北美的觀眾評語，話比以前同系列電影好睇，我想是因為故事比較簡單，令他們容易明白，他們看得明白，知道故事講甚麼，就覺得好睇。 無論是電視編劇，電影編劇，星空奇遇記系列《註》，都有著極高水準，時常都想帶給觀眾一些哲理，這也是我喜歡看的一個原因。
至於演員演技，這不是賣點，要睇演技我識得去揀，這類電影只要求故事流暢，動作特技吸引，就已達到要求，故事確實比較簡單，沒有特別訊息，反而把報復、報仇、復仇渲染了，是本片美中不足。
還有，今次提到冼樸先生和胡玉娜小姐，原來有一段情，這是以前沒有的，看來陸續有來的 sequels 續集，埋下伏線。另外因為 Romulan 和 Vulcan 兩星系在本片都被毀滅，那麼以前拍下有關這兩個星球的人物故事，將可以一一抹去，條 Time Line 要重新發展，也可以把舊時翻拍，玩盡 Time Line Theory 技巧，是寫不盡的故事。
《註》我看得最多是 TNG，在下面我的舊文連結，有暇可以伸延閱讀。
補記：
當年的荷里活玉女 Winona Ryder，被揭高賣後，一沉不起，今次更被 Cast 為年輕 冼樸的地球人母親，短短幾年，變化之大，令人唏噓不已！

Trekker 讀報後發噏風
Trekker 讀報後發噏風
第一代的 Star Trek 我只是在北美的 Cable TV 看過幾集，我的成長時代是看 Star Trek：The Next Generation （簡稱：TNG），由 1987 至 1994 年，有七季，共 178集，記得好像是在明珠台播出。
當年每週必定追看，若有事就會錄影來看，自問是 Trekker or Trekkie 一名，至於 Star Trek 電影每部都有入院看過，絕不會錯過。可惜之後的：Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993–1999), Star Trek: Voyager (1995–2001), and Star Trek: Enterprise (2001–2005)，就沒有追看了。
某天看免費報 AM730 有以下一則的文章：
【am730專欄】荷李活人的創作，一向走在改變保守思想的前峰，更何況是六七十年代伴着筆者這一代人成長的「星空奇遇記」？
在葛克隊長的系列片集中，有 1969年播出的 Let that be, the last battlefield 一 集，講到企業號因為追尋一艘被盜的運輸船而介入一個星球類人生物的種族衝突中，葛克隊長大惑不解，為何同樣是一邊面黑一邊面白的統治階層，會奴役、歧視和千里追捕逃亡的同類?這集拍得很巧妙，兩種族群一直沒有同場出現，直到附圖的一個鏡頭。（Space 註：因 copy right問題，請點擊下面的連結看圖吧）
透過左邊外交官的對白，才看出統治階層的種族面部是左黑右白，而被壓迫勞役階層是左白右黑！要思考明白一個道理，放大是其中一個方法，但有時卻要縮小差異，才能令人恍然大悟種族歧視的謬誤！
到了 1992年首現電視的第 117集 Star Trek：The Next Generation，名為 Outcast 的這集裏，企業號副艦長Riker 又因為追尋一艘失蹤的運輸艦，遇上了一個非常先進的人類文明，這個文明「進步」到視戀愛和性是低等、原始行為，繁衍靠的是試管無性繁殖，但偏偏Riker卻與這個文明的一位女性 Soren 發生了戀情，最後 Soren 被捉回去進行洗腦治療。
看後至今20年，卻仍記得之後 Soren 見到 Riker 講的一句木無表情對白，所帶給筆者的沉痛(意)：「我曾經愛上你，這其實是因為我有病，現在我已痊愈，我很快樂。 」編劇的聰明，在於藉着科幻創作，把異性戀者設身處地帶到一個被歧視的世界中，令他們感同身受。
人類的世界理應越來越文明，美國精神病學會已於 1973年把同性戀從精神疾病的診斷列表中剔除！ 筆者深信，與種族歧視一樣，一個開明的社會，總有一日會消除對同性戀者的歧視。

人類社會一定有歧視的情況存在，一些幫助被歧視的所謂弱勢社群，其實他們就是一班首先歧視別人的偽君子偽淑女，這一種歧視在歐美叫：condescending or condescension，這種歧視令人容易忽略，接受了被歧視也不知道！
話轉回 Star Trek，最令我記得的一集第一代 Star Trek，是：A Taste of Armageddon，是我到北美探親，偶然在嚴重 jetlag 中的無眠晚上，看到的 Star Trek 一集。
【wikipiedia】On Eminiar VII, the Enterprise finds a civilization at war with its planetary neighbor. Unable to discern any signs of battle from orbit, Captain Kirk leads a landing party to the surface where he discovers the entire war is fought by computer. Even though the war is simulated, citizens who are listed as virtual casualties still report to termination booths to be killed for real. After the Enterprise is destroyed in an attack simulation, Kirk must fight to keep his crew from death.
簡單來說“企業號”太空船來到一個星系，在這星系他們分成兩個派別，雙方戰爭了經已五百年。但是為了保存文明文化和城市建設，不至於被戰爭毀滅，他們不是利用真武器來打仗，兩派利用超級電腦互相進行攻擊對方，利用電腦計算出死亡人民的數字，人民收到傳召就會聽命，去到一個死亡工廠被集體處死。
為了保存星系文明，人民願意接受了這個方式，都甘願自動走進死亡工廠送死！不過在一次的利用電腦的戰爭中，計算出連到訪的“企業號”太空船都被毀滅了，因此全體到訪的船員，都要根據規定去死亡工廠報到，等候被殺死 。。。。。。
究竟 Captain Kirk 和 Mr. Spock 如何化解這一次危機呢？
Now the Full Story：
【wikipiedia】On stardate 3192.1, the starship USS Enterprise, under the command of Captain James T. Kirk, is en route to Eminiar VII, to open diplomatic relations with the inhabitants there. On board is Ambassador Robert Fox, who has been sent to lead the talks and to establish diplomatic relations with Eminiar VII and its sister planet, Vendikar.
Little is known about either world's people except that they have had intrasystem space travel for a few centuries, and when the cultures were first contacted, it was learned there was a longstanding war between them. Soon afterward, the Federation Starship USS Valiant mysteriously disappeared and was reported lost.
Nearing the Eminiar world, the Enterprise receives a priority signal not to approach the planet under any circumstances. Ambassador Fox orders Kirk to ignore the warning and investigate further. Kirk leads a landing party including First Officer Spock, a yeoman and a security detail, down to meet with Eminiar leaders. They are met by a representative, Mea 3, who leads them to the planetary council. Both Mea 3 and the council leader, Anan 7, sternly remind Kirk and his landing team they should not have come because the city has just been hit by a Vendikar fusion bomb which has killed half a million people. Curiously, everything in the city seems intact and there is no visible evidence or sensor readings of such an attack ever occurring.
The landing party soon discovers that the entire war between the two planets is completely simulated by computers which launch wargame attacks and counterattacks, then calculate damage and select the dead. Citizens reported as "killed" must submit themselves for termination by stepping inside a disintegration booth. Anan 7 informs Kirk that the simulated attacks and following executions is the agreed system of war decided by both sides in a treaty with Vendikar. A conventional war was deemed too destructive to the environments and societies of both planets.
Kirk is then informed that during the last Vendikar attack the Enterprise was destroyed by a tri-cobalt satellite, and the entire ship's crew must be terminated within 24 hours. Although the landing team is exempted from execution, they are arrested and held hostage until all Enterprise crew members report to the planet for execution. Mea 3 has also been reported as a casualty.
In an attempt to lure the Enterprise crew down, Anan 7 simulates Captain Kirk's voice and orders the crew to come down to celebrate the newly established diplomatic relations with the Eminiar people. Chief Engineer Scott, who was left in command, does not believe it and decides to have the Captain's voice analyzed. When the computer determines it is a fake, he realizes the landing party, and by extension the entire ship, must be in danger.
When Mr. Scott refuses the order, Anan orders the Enterprise to be destroyed, but the ship's shields easily repel the attack. Ambassador Fox insists that the attack was just a misunderstanding when he talks with Anan 7. Anan 7 lies and declares a sensor malfunctioned and it appeared the Enterprise was about to attack. Anan 7 apologizes and extends a warm invitation for the Ambassador to beam down and talk. Ambassador Fox accepts the invitation and orders Scott to lower the shields.
To Fox's indignation, Scott, with Chief Medical Officer Dr. McCoy's support, refuses the command, considering the planet's government has obviously captured the landing party, sent a fake message to lure them down, and had just fired on the ship. After threatening to bring Scott up on insubordination charges, Fox and his aide beam down, but are quickly taken into custody and sent to be terminated.
Meanwhile, Spock and Kirk manage to break out of their holding cell by overpowering a guard and stealing his weapon. Along the way out, they stop Mea 3 from reporting to die, destroying a disintegration chamber and disabling the operator. Kirk is then recaptured by Anan 7 while trying to locate the party's communicators.
Spock and the others disguise themselves as Eminians and rescue Ambassador Fox, destroying another disintegration booth in the process. A chastened Fox accepts that he was dangerously mistaken about the situation and volunteers to fight with the others.
With Captain Kirk in his presence, Anan 7 demands that Kirk order his ship's crew to beam down and accept their fate as determined by the wargame computers. In the background, Kirk yells out instructions to Mr. Scott to follow General Order 24, a full attack on the planet, within two hours.
Kirk informs Anan 7 the Enterprise is more than capable of destroying everything on the planet. Anan 7 still refuses and orders the Enterprise destroyed, but it has now moved out of range. Mr. Scott then contacts Anan 7 to say that the planet has been surveyed, and the Enterprise will destroy it by Kirk's deadline if the hostages are not released. In the prevailing state of agitation amongst the councilmen, Kirk manages to overpower the guards and take their disrupters. He orders the guards and the councilmen towards the door when Spock arrives with Ambassador Fox.
Kirk and Spock make their way to the wargame computers, and once there, Kirk destroys the entire system while Anan looks on in terror. He exclaims that the planet is doomed; with the treaty broken, the people of Vendikar will fire their conventional weapons again. Vendikar had in fact been in contact already to complain about Anan 7's government being slow to meet their treaty obligations created by Kirk's interference. Now, an immediate retaliation with real weaponry is imminent.
Kirk encourages Anan 7 to instead call a ceasefire so that the two planets, with the Federation's assistance, can learn to coexist in peace. A desperate Anan 7 agrees, and Ambassador Fox immediately offers to lead the negotiations. As the Enterprise breaks orbit, Fox reports that the peace negotiations are going relatively well.
如今地球上的列強擁有大殺傷力的武器，可以不用出兵作地面戰爭，國與國可以隔空幾千甚至上萬公里外，互相利用飛彈、無人飛機、進行攻擊轟炸任務，殺人於千里之外！
近日，以色列與卡沙地帶的巴勒斯坦武裝份子，地面戰爭尚未展開，以巴互相利用火箭大砲隔空攻擊，造成很多平民的死傷，巴勒斯坦人更把小孩子的屍體照片，擺了上報章媒體上，成為巴人控訴以色列殘殺無辜，受到國際關注！
Oh，When will they ever LEARN ！！！

Holodeck
Holodeck
擬真機 Holodeck，是科幻電視片集 Star Trek 系列中的一個機器，它是利用高能量來，造出模擬實物環境，甚至可以模擬動物和植物，包括 holodeck personnel 擬真人。 其中科學利用能量轉化成物質的理論，不是我想在這裡討論，有興趣的朋友可以到維基百科：Holodeck 篇查看。
實用方面，Star Trek 故事中，太空旗艦 Enterprise 上的隊員，可以利用 Holodeck 擬真機，來仿造敵人和敵方環境，來進行模擬演習 combat rehearsals；設計及實驗新的器材、工具、宇航飛船；也可以創造環境和人物，當作消遣和耍樂之用，例如仿真的陽光與海灘，兒時回憶，懷緬往事，星際和地球上每一個角落，歷險小說的故事，等等。
Holodeck 在 Star Trek 的 the next generation 開始，其他的同系列的 Star Trek Voyager 片集都有利用 Holodeck 的 technology 來寫故事。
最過癮的一次是：Data 為了在 holodeck 內，玩玩『Sherlock Holmes 福爾摩斯』的偵探故事，代入為福爾摩斯的 Data，為了接受挑戰，不用固有的福爾摩斯偵探故事，于是他下了一個指令，叫電腦在 holodeck 造一個擬真人物，可以和 Data 較量的 holodeck personnel 擬真人物 Professor Mariarty，點知咁就玩大咗。這一集叫：Ship in a Bottle
維基百科：Ship in a Bottle
故事：Data and La Forge are enjoying a Sherlock Holmes holodeck program when the two notice that a character programmed to be left-handed was actually right-handed. They call Lt. Barclay to repair the holodeck, but as he checks the status of the Sherlock Holmes programs, he encounters an area of protected memory. He activates it to find the artificial sentient Professor James Moriarty character projected into the Holodeck, who appears to have memory since his creation including during the period while he was inactive.
Moriarty wishes to escape the artificial world of the holodeck and was assured by the crew of the Enterprise-D that they would endeavor to find a way to free him, and is irritated at the lack of results on the part of the crew and their seeming lack of even the tiniest bit of effort. Picard, along with Data and Barclay, attempt to assure Moriarty they are still working on that goal, but Moriarty is dismissive of that. He takes control of the Enterprise-D through the computer, insisting that a way be found for him to experience life beyond the confines of the holodeck.
Moriarty confuses the crew by seemingly willing himself to existence by walking off the holodeck. He explains this to the stunned captain and Data by saying, "I think, therefore I am." The additional twist is the action by Moriarty to create a companion, the Countess Regina Bartholomew for himself, commanding the computer of the Enterprise-D to place another sentient mind within a female character of the Sherlock Holmes novels. Moriarty then demands a solution to get Regina off the holodeck be devised.
While assisting La Forge, Data observes that LaForge's handedness is incorrect, just as they had experienced earlier. Data determines that himself, Picard, and Barclay never left the holodeck, and everyone and everything that appears to be the Enterprise are part of a holodeck program Moriarty created: the ship in the bottle. Data finds a way to program the holodeck's holodeck to convince Moriarty that he and Regina can be beamed into the real world, though in fact they are only "beamed" in the holodeck's holodeck simulation.
Moriarty, satisfied with the ruse, releases control of the ship back to Picard, and he and the Countess use a shuttlecraft given to them by Picard to leave the Enterprise and explore the galaxy. Picard ends the simulation and returns to the real Enterprise. Barclay extracts the memory cube from the holodeck and sets it in an extended power device in order to provide Moriarty and the Countess a lifetime of exploration and adventure.
Picard mentions the possibility that the crew's reality may actually be a fabrication generated by "a little device sitting on someone's table". This unnerves Barclay enough for him to test the nature of his own reality one more time, by giving commands to 'the computer'.
以上當然只是一篇科幻故事，那個擬真的 Professor Moriarty，利用它學到的理論，在擬真機再造一個擬真的太空船，讓真正太空船的人員，以為走出了擬真機，其實還是留在擬真機內擬真的太空船。最後人員發覺後，就以其道還自其人之身，把 Professor Moriarty 和它的女友，再放入一個擬真的環境，讓它們活在永遠擬真的 memory cube 裡面。好似好復雜咁 right？
其實人世間，我們是否就是活在一個大智慧的擬真機裡面呢？佢得閒就入嚟一齊玩玩，唔得閒就由得我們自生自滅！

THE INNER LIGHT vs the inner space
擬真機 Holodeck，是科幻電視片集 Star Trek 系列中的一個機器，它是利用高能量來，造出模擬實物環境，甚至可以模擬動物和植物，包括 holodeck personnel 擬真人。 其中科學利用能量轉化成物質的理論，不是我想在這裡討論，有興趣的朋友可以到維基百科：Holodeck 篇查看。
實用方面，Star Trek 故事中，太空旗艦 Enterprise 上的隊員，可以利用 Holodeck 擬真機，來仿造敵人和敵方環境，來進行模擬演習 combat rehearsals；設計及實驗新的器材、工具、宇航飛船；也可以創造環境和人物，當作消遣和耍樂之用，例如仿真的陽光與海灘，兒時回憶，懷緬往事，星際和地球上每一個角落，歷險小說的故事，等等。
Holodeck 在 Star Trek 的 the next generation 開始，其他的同系列的 Star Trek Voyager 片集都有利用 Holodeck 的 technology 來寫故事。
最過癮的一次是：Data 為了在 holodeck 內，玩玩『Sherlock Holmes 福爾摩斯』的偵探故事，代入為福爾摩斯的 Data，為了接受挑戰，不用固有的福爾摩斯偵探故事，于是他下了一個指令，叫電腦在 holodeck 造一個擬真人物，可以和 Data 較量的 holodeck personnel 擬真人物 Professor Mariarty，點知咁就玩大咗。這一集叫：Ship in a Bottle
維基百科：Ship in a Bottle
故事：Data and La Forge are enjoying a Sherlock Holmes holodeck program when the two notice that a character programmed to be left-handed was actually right-handed. They call Lt. Barclay to repair the holodeck, but as he checks the status of the Sherlock Holmes programs, he encounters an area of protected memory. He activates it to find the artificial sentient Professor James Moriarty character projected into the Holodeck, who appears to have memory since his creation including during the period while he was inactive.
Moriarty wishes to escape the artificial world of the holodeck and was assured by the crew of the Enterprise-D that they would endeavor to find a way to free him, and is irritated at the lack of results on the part of the crew and their seeming lack of even the tiniest bit of effort. Picard, along with Data and Barclay, attempt to assure Moriarty they are still working on that goal, but Moriarty is dismissive of that. He takes control of the Enterprise-D through the computer, insisting that a way be found for him to experience life beyond the confines of the holodeck.
Moriarty confuses the crew by seemingly willing himself to existence by walking off the holodeck. He explains this to the stunned captain and Data by saying, "I think, therefore I am." The additional twist is the action by Moriarty to create a companion, the Countess Regina Bartholomew for himself, commanding the computer of the Enterprise-D to place another sentient mind within a female character of the Sherlock Holmes novels. Moriarty then demands a solution to get Regina off the holodeck be devised.
While assisting La Forge, Data observes that LaForge's handedness is incorrect, just as they had experienced earlier. Data determines that himself, Picard, and Barclay never left the holodeck, and everyone and everything that appears to be the Enterprise are part of a holodeck program Moriarty created: the ship in the bottle. Data finds a way to program the holodeck's holodeck to convince Moriarty that he and Regina can be beamed into the real world, though in fact they are only "beamed" in the holodeck's holodeck simulation.
Moriarty, satisfied with the ruse, releases control of the ship back to Picard, and he and the Countess use a shuttlecraft given to them by Picard to leave the Enterprise and explore the galaxy. Picard ends the simulation and returns to the real Enterprise. Barclay extracts the memory cube from the holodeck and sets it in an extended power device in order to provide Moriarty and the Countess a lifetime of exploration and adventure.
Picard mentions the possibility that the crew's reality may actually be a fabrication generated by "a little device sitting on someone's table". This unnerves Barclay enough for him to test the nature of his own reality one more time, by giving commands to 'the computer'.

黑域時空 Star Trek into Darkness
黑域時空 Star Trek into Darkness
讀我博者都知道 嗜悲 是 Trekker or Trekkie，是一個徹底 Die Hard Star Trek 迷，今個週四又有 新 Star Trek 電影上映，嗜悲 怎會錯過，一於先睹為快！（Star Trek 不同 Star War，切勿混淆。）
其實年頭過年時，我已經積極關注，4個月前的預告片 1分 57秒
上次，完全新的一輯，換過新一批演員，重塑年輕版的 Star Ship Enterprise 隊員，卻克隊長，冼樸副隊長兼科學主管，麥哥醫生，史葛工程師，胡玉娜通訊員，蘇奴駕駛員，芝戈夫領航員等主要角色，都通通簽約再來一個，沒有因為簽不成約要換人，要 嗜悲 去適應面孔改變。
Starring：
Chris Pine as James T. Kirk
Zachary Quinto as Mr. Spock
John Cho as Hikaru Sulu
Simon Pegg as Montgomery Scotty Scott
Zoe Saldana as Nyota Uhura
Karl Urban as Leonard Bones McCoy
Anton Yelchin as Pavel Checkov.
Alice Eve as Carol Marcus
這一集仍然有上一部電影的導演 Directed by：J.J. Abrams，故事中的反方（反派）有 Benedict Cumberbatch as Commander John Harrison
維基百科經已將 整個故事寫了出來，故此不作移植過來。但讓我約略介紹一吓開場，和發展下去今次講甚麽，但之後的發展和結局，就留給各位有興趣入場看。
（等 9週之後才揭曉吧！）
1月前的預告片 2分29秒
【雅虎電影】When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis.
With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction.
As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.
故事：
一開始時 Enterprise 去到一個 humanoid 落後的星系，遇到火山爆發需要拯救居民脫險時，冼樸 被困在火山熔岩之中。
拯救 Mr. Spock 理智 vs 情義 的抉擇，卻克 隊長選擇了後者，也因為為了救 冼樸一命，結果暴露了 Enterprise 太空船。
後果就是被星系的 humanoid 生物，當作神來膜拜，因為這次的決擇，卻克 被 Star Fleet 裁定失職，由隊長被降職至 First Officer，由前集提攜過 卻克 的 Admiral Christopher Pike 負責指揮 Enterprise 太空船。
與此同時 2259年的一天，故事中的反方（反派）John Harrison 出場，他在地球領導和發動爆炸，又在 Star Fleet 開會時殺了 Admiral Christopher Pike，卻克 臨危受命追緝 John Harrison 歸案。
原來這位 Commander John Harrison，真正的身份是 Khan Noonien Singh，是人工培植的智能超級人，已經被沉睡了 300年，如今喚醒過來，就是有位野心家，要利用超級人智力協助他，設計超級太空船，打算和 Klingons 控制的太空帝國，一較高下爭霸。（Khan Noonien Singh 曾在以前的 Star Trek 出現過，也是超人類。）
發展下去 卻克 發現其實 Star Fleet 的一個高級將領，才是整個陰謀的幕後黑手即是上面的野心家，究竟他能否有效夠控制 Khan 這位智能超人呢？戰爭狂熱能否醫治的呢？
。
。
。
。
。
。
幾經辛苦 卻克 與隊員們，都能完成任務後，卻克隊長 亦死過翻生，重新當上 Enterprise 太空船的隊長和指揮官，帶領着船員們遨游太空。
電影中代表 正方 卻克隊長 與 反方 Commander John Harrison 對話
我見：
一開始就利用故事，指出一些所謂先進國家，去到較落後的國家，就以為自己較先進，就自感優越不自覺地，輸出了自以為是的理念，但落後的地區能否學到足，還是只學到皮毛，未能學到真正的意義，適得其反反而不美。
Star Trek 內的 Star Fleet Prime Directive dictates that there can be no interference with the internal development of alien civilizations。所謂物競天擇適者生存，挽救一個頻危物種，保留一個將要消失文明，有沒有違反大自然定律呢？
又人類發明了原子彈核子彈，核武儲存足以毀滅：地球，人類，和所有生物植物 multiple 多次。但又利用核技術來發電，烏克蘭徹爾諾貝爾的溶芯核災難，美國三里島的核輻射洩漏，日本福島的核電機組，因為海嘯無法冷卻反應堆，最後發生爆炸污染了方圓幾百方哩。這都暴露了人類發現了核，卻無法控制核反應的後果。
另一範疇，如今人類有優生學說中拔尖特教，還有改變人類基因抗病毒抗菌，利用科技改變卵子精子，製造優化的新人類，是否人類的前途呢？人類能否控制這些新人類超級人呢？普通人類如何自保呢？還是淪為等次生物可供應肉食呢？
故事發生在 2259年，而 Kkan 沉睡了 300年，計計數即是 Khan 是在 1959年利用當時的科學，去製造一個超級人？有這個可能嗎？所以 2259 是公元曆法呢？還是另一個年份計算呢？
故事中 Star Fleet 的大佬要 卻克，一見到 Commander Harrison 即是 Khan 就殺無赦。但是 卻克 自把自為，要活捉 Khan 帶他返地球接受審訊。這個爭議，有沒有似曾相識呢？ 對！就是美國人到巴基斯坦，一見即殺了逃避美國人追緝的 阿爾蓋達 Osama Bin Laden，並沒有帶 拉登 返美國受審，給予法庭法律上的公平對待。
正反，正邪，善惡，恩仇，只差一線！有機會主義者，有戰爭狂熱者，也有完美理想主義者，以為破舊立新就是正途，他們都想造救世主！
本集加入了一位新成員 Carol Wallace /Marcus （Alice Eve），末段 卻克 隊長歡迎她正是加入成為 Enterprise 大家庭的一份子，相信以後陸逐有來的系列，都會有這位 Carol Marcus 出現。嗜悲 再查找以往的 Star Trek，都有這個名字出現，她為 卻克 生了個兒子。但是卻克在今次間接殺了她的生父，究竟是大義滅親，還是背負殺父之仇，可能成為他她們兩人之的雫隙呢？
上次的一部 Star Trek - The Future Begins，雅虎北美的 User Reviews 評價不高，皆因故事特別複雜，集 過去、現在、將來、三條 timelines，故事太過曲折，又有 time travelling，三個時空發生不同的事，啲鬼仔鬼妹睇唔明，沒有太多正面評價，究其原因就是不肯用腦。
今次，Yahoo North America 電影的 User Reviews 好評很多，故事表達方式比較直接，就算有些扭扭再扭扭，都可以唔使多用腦去明白。香港方面的觀眾應該雷同，評價應比較正面，遲些再補返！
個人覺得本片很好看，兩個多鐘頭 132分鐘的戲，嗜悲 不覺沉悶而且過得太快，除了繽紛畫面，講友情愛情跟邏輯規條衝突，特別吸引著我的專注。當然還有 嗜悲 一向有估劇情的習慣，編劇們又故意讓我估中關鍵，生死關頭如何破解，更令我繼續很享受看下去。
導演 J.J. Abrams 講述製作過程
嗜悲 選擇看的只是 2D 版，皆因看 3D版通常沒有多大的視覺效果分別，個別的 3D 效果不值得給多錢購買，有時更甚至看到眼花花，錯過了劇情、伏線，眼神、推理。嗜悲 將等到出 DVD 時購買，再重溫多幾次。
後記：
9週之後才續寫結局和更多的我見！
哈哈哈哈哈，唔使兩個禮拜，我就已經忘記得一乾二淨了，所以 9週後沒有再寫。然而，在十月尾我買到了，Into Darkness 黑域時空 的 DVD影碟。
所以不欲多寫，就轉載了 wikipedia 的 Plot 吧。
【維基百科】In 2259, the starship Enterprise is on a survey mission to the planet Nibiru, studying a primitive culture. Captain James T. Kirk and First Officer Spock attempt to save the planet's inhabitants from a volcanic eruption.
When Spock's life is endangered, Kirk violates the Prime Directive in order to save him, exposing the Enterprise to the native inhabitants, a decision with which Spock disagrees.
Returning to Earth, Kirk loses command of the Enterprise and Admiral Christopher Pike is reinstated as its commanding officer. Pike manages to convince Admiral Marcus to allow Kirk to continue as his first officer on the Enterprise, rather than being sent back to the Academy.
Meanwhile, a secret Section 31 installation in London is bombed by a renegade Starfleet officer, Commander John Harrison. During a meeting of Starfleet commanders to discuss the situation, Harrison attacks in a jumpship, killing Pike.
Kirk disables the jumpship, but Harrison uses a prototype portable transwarp transporter device to escape to Kronos, the Klingon homeworld, knowing Starfleet would be unable to follow.
Admiral Marcus orders the Enterprise to kill Harrison, arming them with 72 prototype photon torpedoes, shielded and untraceable to sensors. Chief engineer Montgomery Scott resigns his duties in protest when Kirk denies Scott's request to examine the weapons for safety reasons.
Pavel Chekov is promoted in his stead and Dr. Carol Wallace, a weapons specialist, joins the crew. Spock, Dr. Leonard McCoy and Uhura convinces Kirk it would be better to capture Harrison and return him to Earth for trial, rather than killing him.
En route, the Enterprise suffers an unexpected coolant leak in the warp core, disabling the ship's warp capabilities. Kirk leads a deniable operation to Kronos in a confiscated civilian vessel. Approaching Harrison's location, they are ambushed by Klingon patrols.
Harrison easily dispatches the Klingons, then unexpectedly surrenders after learning the exact number of torpedoes locked on his location. On the Enterprise, Wallace is revealed as Dr. Carol Marcus, the Admiral's daughter, who along with Dr. McCoy, opens a torpedo at the behest of Harrison, revealing a man in cryogenic stasis.
Harrison reveals his true identity as Khan, a genetically-engineered superhuman awoken by Marcus from a 300-year suspended animation. Khan reveals his crew was held hostage by Marcus to force him to develop weapons and warships for Starfleet in preparation for a war between the Federation and the Klingons.
Khan attempted to smuggle his crew out in the torpedoes he had designed, but was discovered. Believing Marcus had killed his crew, he instigated his attacks to avenge his family. Khan reveals Marcus had sabotaged the Enterprise's warp drive, intending for the Klingons to destroy the ship after firing the torpedoes at Kronos, giving him a casus belli for war. Acting on information from Khan, Kirk asks Scott to investigate a set of coordinates within the Solar System.
The Enterprise is intercepted by a larger Federation warship, the USS Vengeance under the command of Marcus. Marcus demands that Kirk deliver Khan, but Kirk refuses. The Enterprise, with a hastily repaired warp drive, flees to Earth in order to report Marcus, however the Vengeance intercepts and disables it.
Kirk offers to exchange Khan and the cryogenic pods in exchange for sparing the lives of his crew. Marcus refuses, transporting Carol Marcus to the Vengeance and ordering the Enterprise's destruction. The Vengeance suddenly loses power, having been sabotaged by Scott, who discovered and infiltrated the ship during his investigation.
With the transporters down, Kirk and Khan, with the latter's knowledge of the warship's design, space-jump to the Vengeance. Meanwhile, Spock contacts his older self on New Vulcan, who informs him that Khan cannot be trusted. After capturing the bridge, Khan overpowers Kirk, Scott and Carol, killing Admiral Marcus and seizing control of the Vengeance.
Khan demands from Spock the return of his crew in exchange for the three Enterprise officers. Spock complies, but had previously removed Khan's frozen crew and armed the warheads.
Khan betrays their agreement, crippling the Enterprise, however the Vengeance is in turn disabled following the detonation of the torpedoes. With both starships powerless and caught in Earth's gravity, they begin to fall toward the surface.
Kirk sacrifices himself by entering the radioactive reactor chamber to realign the warp core, saving the ship. Kirk succumbs to radiation poisoning, throwing Spock into a grief-stricken rage.
In one last act of defiance, Khan crashes the Vengeance into San Francisco to destroy Starfleet headquarters. Fleeing the scene, Spock transports down in pursuit. While experimenting on a dead tribble, McCoy discovers that Khan's blood has regenerative properties that may save Kirk.
Spock manages to subdue and capture Khan, and Kirk is revived. One year later, Kirk addresses a gathering memorializing the events, where he recites the "where no man has gone before" monologue.
Khan is resealed in his cryogenic pod and stored with his crew, while Carol Marcus joins the crew of a recommissioned Enterprise, as it departs on a five-year exploratory mission.
OK 本來不打算多寫故事，無奈就多寫小小吧 。。。。
上面提起的一位高級將領，就是要利用 卻克 去追殺 Khan，並訛說 Khan 匿藏的星球，是沒有生物的孤星，下了命令即用新武器殺死，絕不不留下活口，但 卻克 自把自為把 Khan 捉到帶回地球。上面提起的一位高級將領，就是要利用 卻克 去追殺 Khan，並訛說 Khan 匿藏的星球，是沒有生物的孤星，下了命令即用新武器殺死，絕不不留下活口，但 卻克 自把自為把 Khan 捉到帶回地球。
其實這位好戰的高級將領，要毀滅的星球其實是 Klingon Empire 新的殖民星球，發射新武器殺 Khan，無疑就是宣戰會引發新一場與 Klingon 的戰爭，這位高級將領為戰爭而生存，為了自己的存在價值，不惜把地球人與 Klingon 捲入一場戰爭，卻剛剛遇著啱啱給 卻克 化解了。
但過程中 Khan 和他的一班智能超級人就重新被沉睡（以後還有 Khan 的故事），而高級將領則因為 卻克 要帶他返回地球受審判，就是這一刻的阻擾，高級將領被 Khan 殺死了，這位高級將領就是從母姓的新女隊員 Carol 的生父，後來她會為卻克生一個兒子。
買到了 DVD 為的是要重看，卻克 為了拯救全體船員，他走入機房內把已經移位了的反應堆扶正，令企業號恢復動力，避免了衝破大氣層直墮下，因摩擦而產生高溫，燒溶掉太空船。不過因此 卻克收得輻射污染性命垂危。
Mr. Spock 趕到但兩人被卻玻璃罩分開，兩位猩猩雙惜的男人，在臨死前作出最後的談話，卻克 問 冼樸 到如今他明白了，當初他為何要在火山爆發時，甘願違反 Star Fleet 的指引，也要拯救 冼樸 出險，救回他的一命呢？ Mr. Spock：Because we are Friends！ 至此一向只依從邏輯辦事，絕不介入情感的 冼樸，卒之留下 “一滴” 眼淚。
嗜悲 就是要重覆看看，究竟這是一滴眼淚，還是一滴汗水呢？經過多次觀看 DVD，verified 真的是一滴眼淚從 冼樸 的左眼滴出，但右眼卻連濕潤也沒有，想必定是利用眼藥水製造效果，但化妝師忘記了右眼，短短一個鏡頭走了雞，or 火神星人只在右眼有淚腺，因為它是地球人和火神星人的混血兒。
還有在 嗜悲 舊文中指出，故事發生在 2259年，而 Kkan 沉睡了 300年，計計數即是 Khan 是在 1959年利用當時的科學，去製造一個超級人？有這個可能嗎？所以 2259 是公元曆法呢？還是另一個年份計算呢？
重看 DVD 時證實 嗜悲 沒有聽錯，麥哥醫生 Dr. McCoy 和 新女隊員 Carol Wallace /Marcus weapons specialist，兩人檢查過承載著 Khan 的其他族人的 capsules 後。卻克 問能否把他們 revive 喚醒呢？兩人回答不是因為科技太先進 Advance，but they are too primitive 是十分原始的落後的，因此他她們倆沒有必定安全方法，有把握地去拆開 capsules，喚醒一班新人類超級人。
那末，嗜悲 要等有時間才去了解一吓 Star Date 2259 究竟和公元曆法，有甚麽差距有沒有分別呢？

Pavel Chekov is promoted in his stead and Dr. Carol Wallace, a weapons specialist, joins the crew. Spock, Dr. Leonard McCoy and Uhura convinces Kirk it would be better to capture Harrison and return him to Earth for trial, rather than killing him.
En route, the Enterprise suffers an unexpected coolant leak in the warp core, disabling the ship's warp capabilities. Kirk leads a deniable operation to Kronos in a confiscated civilian vessel. Approaching Harrison's location, they are ambushed by Klingon patrols.
Harrison easily dispatches the Klingons, then unexpectedly surrenders after learning the exact number of torpedoes locked on his location. On the Enterprise, Wallace is revealed as Dr. Carol Marcus, the Admiral's daughter, who along with Dr. McCoy, opens a torpedo at the behest of Harrison, revealing a man in cryogenic stasis.
Harrison reveals his true identity as Khan, a genetically-engineered superhuman awoken by Marcus from a 300-year suspended animation. Khan reveals his crew was held hostage by Marcus to force him to develop weapons and warships for Starfleet in preparation for a war between the Federation and the Klingons.
Khan attempted to smuggle his crew out in the torpedoes he had designed, but was discovered. Believing Marcus had killed his crew, he instigated his attacks to avenge his family. Khan reveals Marcus had sabotaged the Enterprise's warp drive, intending for the Klingons to destroy the ship after firing the torpedoes at Kronos, giving him a casus belli for war. Acting on information from Khan, Kirk asks Scott to investigate a set of coordinates within the Solar System.
The Enterprise is intercepted by a larger Federation warship, the USS Vengeance under the command of Marcus. Marcus demands that Kirk deliver Khan, but Kirk refuses. The Enterprise, with a hastily repaired warp drive, flees to Earth in order to report Marcus, however the Vengeance intercepts and disables it.
Kirk offers to exchange Khan and the cryogenic pods in exchange for sparing the lives of his crew. Marcus refuses, transporting Carol Marcus to the Vengeance and ordering the Enterprise's destruction. The Vengeance suddenly loses power, having been sabotaged by Scott, who discovered and infiltrated the ship during his investigation.
With the transporters down, Kirk and Khan, with the latter's knowledge of the warship's design, space-jump to the Vengeance. Meanwhile, Spock contacts his older self on New Vulcan, who informs him that Khan cannot be trusted. After capturing the bridge, Khan overpowers Kirk, Scott and Carol, killing Admiral Marcus and seizing control of the Vengeance.
Khan demands from Spock the return of his crew in exchange for the three Enterprise officers. Spock complies, but had previously removed Khan's frozen crew and armed the warheads.
Khan betrays their agreement, crippling the Enterprise, however the Vengeance is in turn disabled following the detonation of the torpedoes. With both starships powerless and caught in Earth's gravity, they begin to fall toward the surface.
Kirk sacrifices himself by entering the radioactive reactor chamber to realign the warp core, saving the ship. Kirk succumbs to radiation poisoning, throwing Spock into a grief-stricken rage.
In one last act of defiance, Khan crashes the Vengeance into San Francisco to destroy Starfleet headquarters. Fleeing the scene, Spock transports down in pursuit. While experimenting on a dead tribble, McCoy discovers that Khan's blood has regenerative properties that may save Kirk.
Spock manages to subdue and capture Khan, and Kirk is revived. One year later, Kirk addresses a gathering memorializing the events, where he recites the "where no man has gone before" monologue.
Khan is resealed in his cryogenic pod and stored with his crew, while Carol Marcus joins the crew of a recommissioned Enterprise, as it departs on a five-year exploratory mission.
OK 本來不打算多寫故事，無奈就多寫小小吧 。。。。
上面提起的一位高級將領，就是要利用 卻克 去追殺 Khan，並訛說 Khan 匿藏的星球，是沒有生物的孤星，下了命令即用新武器殺死，絕不不留下活口，但 卻克 自把自為把 Khan 捉到帶回地球。上面提起的一位高級將領，就是要利用 卻克 去追殺 Khan，並訛說 Khan 匿藏的星球，是沒有生物的孤星，下了命令即用新武器殺死，絕不不留下活口，但 卻克 自把自為把 Khan 捉到帶回地球。
其實這位好戰的高級將領，要毀滅的星球其實是 Klingon Empire 新的殖民星球，發射新武器殺 Khan，無疑就是宣戰會引發新一場與 Klingon 的戰爭，這位高級將領為戰爭而生存，為了自己的存在價值，不惜把地球人與 Klingon 捲入一場戰爭，卻剛剛遇著啱啱給 卻克 化解了。
但過程中 Khan 和他的一班智能超級人就重新被沉睡（以後還有 Khan 的故事），而高級將領則因為 卻克 要帶他返回地球受審判，就是這一刻的阻擾，高級將領被 Khan 殺死了，這位高級將領就是從母姓的新女隊員 Carol 的生父，後來她會為卻克生一個兒子。
買到了 DVD 為的是要重看，卻克 為了拯救全體船員，他走入機房內把已經移位了的反應堆扶正，令企業號恢復動力，避免了衝破大氣層直墮下，因摩擦而產生高溫，燒溶掉太空船。不過因此 卻克收得輻射污染性命垂危。
Mr. Spock 趕到但兩人被卻玻璃罩分開，兩位猩猩雙惜的男人，在臨死前作出最後的談話，卻克 問 冼樸 到如今他明白了，當初他為何要在火山爆發時，甘願違反 Star Fleet 的指引，也要拯救 冼樸 出險，救回他的一命呢？ Mr. Spock：Because we are Friends！ 至此一向只依從邏輯辦事，絕不介入情感的 冼樸，卒之留下 “一滴” 眼淚。
嗜悲 就是要重覆看看，究竟這是一滴眼淚，還是一滴汗水呢？經過多次觀看 DVD，verified 真的是一滴眼淚從 冼樸 的左眼滴出，但右眼卻連濕潤也沒有，想必定是利用眼藥水製造效果，但化妝師忘記了右眼，短短一個鏡頭走了雞，or 火神星人只在右眼有淚腺，因為它是地球人和火神星人的混血兒。
還有在 嗜悲 舊文中指出，故事發生在 2259年，而 Kkan 沉睡了 300年，計計數即是 Khan 是在 1959年利用當時的科學，去製造一個超級人？有這個可能嗎？所以 2259 是公元曆法呢？還是另一個年份計算呢？
重看 DVD 時證實 嗜悲 沒有聽錯，麥哥醫生 Dr. McCoy 和 新女隊員 Carol Wallace /Marcus weapons specialist，兩人檢查過承載著 Khan 的其他族人的 capsules 後。卻克 問能否把他們 revive 喚醒呢？兩人回答不是因為科技太先進 Advance，but they are too primitive 是十分原始的落後的，因此他她們倆沒有必定安全方法，有把握地去拆開 capsules，喚醒一班新人類超級人。
那末，嗜悲 要等有時間才去了解一吓 Star Date 2259 究竟和公元曆法，有甚麽差距有沒有分別呢？

The Pegasus （TNG） and These Are the Voyages...（Enterprise）
【維基百科】The Enterprise is ordered on a priority mission to collect a member of Starfleet Intelligence, Admiral Eric Pressman, former Captain of the USS Pegasus where Will Riker first served after graduating from Starfleet Academy. Pressman informs Jean-Luc Picard and Riker that intelligence has located the Pegasus in the Devolin system near the Romulan Zone.
Though presumed destroyed, Pressman orders the Enterprise to either recover the ship's remains or destroy them to prevent them from falling into the hands of the Romulans. In private, Riker attempts to discuss the events aboard the Pegasus's last mission and questions Pressman's intentions, but Pressman instructed Riker to remain silent until the current mission is completed.
Later, Picard summons Riker to his quarters to ask him about a discovery he is just made concerning the Pegasus. Prior to the assumed destruction of the vessel, there was a mutiny—an event that Picard remarks is "unthinkable", yet one that for all its seriousness Riker has never mentioned. He further remarks that obtaining the report was no small feat, considering it had been classified by Starfleet Intelligence. Riker offers his version of the events: that when the Pegasus' warp core overloaded, several officers took up arms against Pressman, fearful that the Captain was out of control.
Riker, then only seven months out of Starfleet Academy, pulled his own weapon in the Captain's defense, but they were overwhelmed and barely managed to get to the emergency lifeboats. Shortly after ejecting from the crippled ship, the explosion occurred. Picard listens to Riker's account, then reads a second portion of the Judge Advocate General's report where he suggests that he believes that the surviving officers and crew are involved in a cover-up, and that further investigation is warranted. Picard informs Riker that the aforementioned investigation never happened, and that the report was made and quietly buried by Starfleet Intelligence. He presses Riker for the truth.
When Riker suggests that he speak to Pressman about the matter, Picard loses his patience and barks that he is taking up the matter with him. Riker tells Picard that he is under Pressman's orders not to discuss the matter. Picard acquieses, acknowledging that he cannot force Riker to disobey orders from a superior officer, so he will simply have to trust Riker's confidence in Pressman--adding that if he finds that trust to be misguided, then he will be "re-evaluating the command structure" of the Enterprise.
In the Devlin system, the Enterprise encounters a Romulan Warbird, clearly searching for the Pegasus as well. Picard and Sirol, the Romulan captain, acknowledge the others' presence, creating a tense situation. Though the Enterprise sensors locate the Pegasus buried in a large fissure in an asteroid, Picard orders them to move on to lure the Romulans away. With the Romulans distracted, the Enterprise returns, enters the fissure in the asteroid, and finds that the Pegasus is partially fused with the asteroid.
Pressman and Riker transport to the Pegasus, and recover an experimental device that the ship was equipped with which Riker thought was destroyed. Pressman is elated to find it, but Riker is less than enthusiastic. He finally informs Pressman that he won't allow him to restart the experiments that led to both the mutiny and the Pegasus' current state. When Pressman remarks that he's not the same Riker who took up arms to defend him 12 years ago, Riker agrees, adding that he's had time to think about it, and that were it his to do all over again, Pressman might find himself on the business end of Riker's phaser.
Pressman ends the argument by reminding Riker that he's still under the Admiral's orders not to tell Picard anything. They quickly return to the Enterprise when they learn the Romulans have closed the fissure, trapping the Enterprise inside.
Sirol refuses to open the fissure, and instead gives Picard and his crew the option of taking asylum aboard the Warbird; this would allow both the Enterprise and the Pegasus to be captured by the Romulans. Riker proposes a solution using the device they took from the Pegasus—a phase-shifting Federation cloaking device that would allow them to travel through the solid matter of the asteroid and escape. Pressman is furious at the breaking of Riker's silence, but Picard reprimands Pressman, pointing out that the development of a cloaking device by the Federation is a violation of the Treaty of Algeron.
Pressman attempts to take command of the Enterprise, but the crew refuses to obey his orders. Picard directs the cloaking device to be installed on the Enterprise and used to escape the asteroid. The cloak is then dropped in full view of the Romulan ship against Pressman's protestations, and Picard informs Sirol that the Federation will be contacting the Romulan government with regard to the entire incident.
Picard orders Pressman to be arrested for having violated the Treaty of Algeron. Pressman threatens that he has allies in Starfleet, but Picard is unmoved. As Pressman is led off the bridge, Riker insists that he be arrested as well and Picard agrees.
Visiting Riker in the brig, Picard informs Riker that Pressman and four other high-ranking officers in Starfleet Intelligence have all been arrested pending a court-martial, and that his own role in the affair will be scrutinized closely. He also notes that Riker's record will be affected by this incident but that his having come clean at last will help. Picard tells him he still is proud to have him as a First Officer, releases him, and the two head off to the bridge together.
最上面的片段頭一 part 是 Pegasus，一個終於自己的原則，還是愚忠於一個領導，兩個觀念在 Riker 腦海中鬪爭，是 Star Trek TNG 的一集，在 These are the Voyages Riker 又堪入思想鬪爭。
於是他利用 holodeck technology 再重溫 。。。。。。12年前 Star Fleet 試驗 Cloaking Device Starship Pegasus 發生意外，船身和 asteroid 一個小行星的岩層結合成為一體，全船除了 Riker 和 Pressman 生還，全部犧牲了。
12年後，Pressman 已經晉升為 Admiral，他乘搭 Captain Picard 的 Enterprise 去找回， Pegasus 船上當年的 Cloaking Device，但不幸被 Romulan 發覺封了他們所在的小行星的出口沒法離開。 最後，他們都是用了 Cloaking Device，利用 Cloaking 穿過了岩層，幫助 Enterprise 脫險，但這是違反了 Star Fleet 與 Romulan 訂定的條約，可能讓和平渡過 60年後再起戰爭。
而最上面的片段尾一 part 是 Star Trek Enterprise： These Are the Voyages 。。。Riker 又再出現，而且還有 Pressman，是怎麼一回事呢？
【維基百科】"These Are the Voyages..." is a frame story. The 22nd century events of the Star Trek: Enterprise are shown through a holodeck re-creation during the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Pegasus".
In the 24th century, Commander William Riker observes a recreation of the events surrounding the formation of the United Federation of Planets, hoping the events of the past will help him make some important decisions. Chronologically, the 22nd century events of "These Are the Voyages..." take place six years after the previous episode, "Terra Prime".
In 2161, the starship Enterprise and its crew return to Earth on the eve of the signing of the Federation charter. After ten years of service, the Enterprise is due to be decommissioned. Captain Jonathan Archer frets over the speech he will give to the assembled delegates. The Enterprise is contacted by Shran, an Andorian whom Archer had believed dead. Shran's daughter has been kidnapped by shady business partners, and Shran asks for Archer's help in rescuing her. Archer decides to assist Shran, despite T'Pol's warning that they may be late returning for the signing.
While the Enterprise crew surprises Shran's enemies and brings his daughter safely to the ship, the business associates track and board the Enterprise on the return trip.
To save Archer's life, engineer Trip Tucker offers to help the intruders but instead overloads two conduits. The result is an explosion that allows the Enterprise to escape but mortally wounds Tucker. Archer is troubled that he must write a speech about how worthwhile their explorations have been, despite his friend's death, but T'Pol assures him that Tucker would have considered it worthwhile.
On Earth, Archer enters a grand hall to give his speech as Riker ends the simulation, now sure of what course he should take. The final shot is a montage of the ships named Enterprise as Captains Picard, Kirk, and Archer recite the "Where no man has gone before" monologue.

我喜歡笛子的音色﹐它的蒼涼﹐它的冰冷﹐它的單調﹐送上兩首之後﹐欲罷不能﹐現在送上第三回。今次是在 Star Trek - The Next Generation 第125集 " The Inner Light " 聽到的。
故事說: Starship Enterprise 遇到一個物體﹐發出一道能量﹐剛好射中太空船船長 Captain Picard. 他暈倒不醒人事﹐船上全人努力搶救﹐而Picard 的腦波﹐顯現他是清醒的﹐原來Picard 魂遊到了另一個 dimension!!!
Picard 在這次奇遇﹐學會了吹奏笛子﹐當他再醒過來後﹐他發覺在他靈魂出竅之時﹐所用過得笛子﹐就藏在那個不明物體裡面﹐Picard 不自覺的拿起笛子﹐再吹奏出以下的melody, 再次跌進回憶裡。
The Ressikan flute solo in "The inner light"
Some additional information found on the WEB :
The Flute sole play was once again appeared in another Star Trek -TNG, Episode 145 "Lessons" . Picard met a new starfleet officer Nella Daren that he instantly fell in love with, he told her his adventure. With her help, Picard played the flute, and Nella Daren played a rollable piano to renew Picard's memories.
Jay Chattaway composed the music for this episode, including the Ressikan flute solo played by Picard. Chattaway later expanded this piece into a six-minute orchestral suite that is available on "The Best of Star Trek: 30th Anniversary Special" audio CD .

幽仙美地 Yosemite
幽仙美地 Yosemite
從三藩市金門橋出發向東駛，過了平原帶後，路仍然看似是平坦，但其實是暗斜向上，北美的地大上山的路，不像香港般即時大傾斜，而是在微微的不知不覺中，漸漸的往上爬上升着。
經過四個多小時的車程，卒之抵達 200多英哩/ 320多公哩外的《幽仙美地》Yosemite National Park 的大門前的收費亭。
【Yosemite National Park】The park entrance fee applies to all visitors. If you arrive in your private car, van, pickup truck, or RV, the entrance fee is $20 per car. This is valid for unlimited entries to Yosemite for seven days, and includes all occupants of the car.
是甚麽吸引到 嗜悲 來到這個 幽仙美地國家公園 Yosemite 呢？
Mr. Spock 告訴 Captain Kirk 攀爬高崖要專心！
我是個忠實的 Star Trekkie/ Trekker，自從看了電視片集 Star Trek～the next generation 後，連舊版的 Star Trek 裡面的 Captain Kirk，Mr. Spock and Dr.McCoy 的第五集電影 The Final Frontier 都沒有錯過。
El Capitan 可用 mouse/ cursor 在上面自由 360度瀏覽放大縮小
看過後念念不忘，片段中 Captain Kirk 由懸崖跌落，被 Mr. Spock 臨危拯救了，El Capitan 就是這個高崖的名字，若閣下有留意電影片段中周圍的山嶺，會見到有一個叫做：Half Dome 半月山 or 半月石 山頭，它們都是 Yosemite National Park《幽仙美地》內的景點。
Half Dome Rock 可用 mouse/ cursor 在上面自由 360度瀏覽放大縮小
十多年後考到車牌，再經過幾年的駕駛經驗，刻意地去明查暗訪後，嗜悲 便趁一次自駕遊，去親眼看看萬哩之外的 El Capitan 高崖 和 Half Dome Rock 半月山。
提議開多個視窗就可以放到極大來看 Source：yosemitevacation.com
當天是一個冬日的清晨，三藩市的氣溫十度以下（不到華氏50度），由家住 Sunset 區的舅舅家出發，過了 Oakland Bay Bridge，繼續往東駛。因為對着太陽行駛，所以當太陽出來時，甚為刺眼要戴上 double sunglasses！
但入山不多久就陰暗起來，太陽被厚厚雲層遮着了臉不肯露面，聽着收音機的 Oldies，不經不覺突然發現，已經處於山上高地，在路旁見到了雲海，雖然只是見到小小，經已令我驚喜，找到處可以停車地點下車影相。
繼續行程可惜整天都是陰暗得很，技術所限沒有拍到好的照片，只是在 Yosemite 國家公園內勾留着 。。。。。。
El Capitan 高崖 這個角度高不過棵松樹
和
Yosemite Falls 旱季水源水量不足
還有
Half Dome Rock 倒影
突然，見到前面有很多車子都停下來，人們跑出車外指着遠處雪地上 。。。。
噢！原來有一隻野狼在雪地上覓食吧！相距路邊約 500碼，大家都不覺得有危險，但我的 Zoom 只能夠拍到這麽小！
時間不早了，還有四個小時車程返回三藩市，既然天色不佳就回程吧！怎知離開了不久，天色突然開朗太陽出來了 。。。。。。
結果我沒有趕得到回 三藩市，就在 Stockton 附近投棧，晚餐就入到 Stockton 市內，吃一頓普普通通的晚餐 table d'hôte dinner，投棧和晚餐多花費了 US$150多元。但更想不到多年後，Stockton 施托克頓市 會面臨破產，並成為最危險的城市之一，真令人唏噓！
Stockton Deep Water Channel (Source: 維基百科)
【維基百科】In July 2012 Stockton became the largest city ever to file for protection under Chapter 9 of the US Bankruptcy code. Also in 2012, the city became notorious for being one of the most dangerous cities in America, coming in 10th place, and is now ranked the 2nd most dangerous in California (just behind Oakland).
睡到天明後，就更不打算返三藩市，改了去 加州的首府 Sacramento 莎嘉緬都 。。。。。

十多年後考到車牌，再經過幾年的駕駛經驗，刻意地去明查暗訪後，嗜悲 便趁一次自駕遊，去親眼看看萬哩之外的 El Capitan 高崖 和 Half Dome Rock 半月山。
提議開多個視窗就可以放到極大來看 Source：yosemitevacation.com當天是一個冬日的清晨，三藩市的氣溫十度以下（不到華氏50度），由家住 Sunset 區的舅舅家出發，過了 Oakland Bay Bridge，繼續往東駛。因為對着太陽行駛，所以當太陽出來時，甚為刺眼要戴上 double sunglasses！
但入山不多久就陰暗起來，太陽被厚厚雲層遮着了臉不肯露面，聽着收音機的 Oldies，不經不覺突然發現，已經處於山上高地，在路旁見到了雲海，雖然只是見到小小，經已令我驚喜，找到處可以停車地點下車影相。
小規模雲海 （提議另開視窗就可以放到極大來看）
繼續行程可惜整天都是陰暗得很，技術所限沒有拍到好的照片，只是在 Yosemite 國家公園內勾留着 。。。。。。
El Capitan 高崖 這個角度高不過棵松樹
和
Yosemite Falls 旱季水源水量不足
還有
Half Dome Rock 倒影
突然，見到前面有很多車子都停下來，人們跑出車外指着遠處雪地上 。。。。
雪地尋狼 （提議另開視窗就可以放到極大來看）
噢！原來有一隻野狼在雪地上覓食吧！相距路邊約 500碼，大家都不覺得有危險，但我的 Zoom 只能夠拍到這麽小！
時間不早了，還有四個小時車程返回三藩市，既然天色不佳就回程吧！怎知離開了不久，天色突然開朗太陽出來了 。。。。。。
回頭看到太陽照耀下的 Half Dome Rock
結果我沒有趕得到回 三藩市，就在 Stockton 附近投棧，晚餐就入到 Stockton 市內，吃一頓普普通通的晚餐 table d'hôte dinner，投棧和晚餐多花費了 US$150多元。但更想不到多年後，Stockton 施托克頓市 會面臨破產，並成為最危險的城市之一，真令人唏噓！
Stockton Deep Water Channel (Source: 維基百科)【維基百科】In July 2012 Stockton became the largest city ever to file for protection under Chapter 9 of the US Bankruptcy code. Also in 2012, the city became notorious for being one of the most dangerous cities in America, coming in 10th place, and is now ranked the 2nd most dangerous in California (just behind Oakland).
睡到天明後，就更不打算返三藩市，改了去 加州的首府 Sacramento 莎嘉緬都 。。。。。

再談2009北美影事
在香港電影院業，有云：『五窮，六絕，七翻身！』===》意謂，五月的觀眾減少，六月就觀眾絕跡，要到七月才會好轉，這皆因辛辛學子，要準備六月份的學期終結考試，連家長們都積極投入監督，故沒有人會出來看電影云云！
Anyway，在北美卻是兩樣，各大片已經排期，由五月開始陸續上映，磨拳擦掌，爭取暑期的佳績。（沒興趣再重溫大片的朋友，可以跳到下面，介紹一些沒有特大宣傳，或是小本制作，但讀來頗有看頭的暑期電影。）
Star Trek 北美五月七日 港譯：星空奇遇記 六月四日 Trailers & Clips 其實是星空奇遇記的前傳，講的是 Captain James T. Kirk 卻克隊長，和 Mr. Spock 冼撲先生，兩人年青時代，初初入 Star Fleet 的故事，兩人剛剛由 Star Fleet 學堂出來，第一次的太空任務。作為 Star Trek 迷的我，點都入場看看嘞。 Zachary Quinto 演嫰的 Younger Mr. Spock，Chris Pine 演 James T. Kirk，Leonard Nimoy 做成年的 Mr. Spock，會利用 time travel 出現亮相，但唔見到一向演開 卻克隊長的 William Shatner 出現在 Casting 噃，睇嚟沒冇份演出了。
Angels & Demons 北美五月十五日 港譯：天使與魔鬼 五月十四 Trailers & Clips Dan Brown 的同名小說，是 The Da Vinci Code 之前，有關 symbology 教授 Robert Langdon 的故事。這次羅馬教廷梵蒂岡，受到 Illuminati 黨人利用 CERN 的 Anti-matter 反物質，企圖毀滅整個羅馬，Robert Langdon 利用他的專詳專長幫助，破解 Illuminati 留下的迷。有 Tom Hanks 做返 Robert Langdon 教授, Ewan McGregor 演教皇侍從 Camerlengo Carlo Ventresca，Vittoria Vetra 由 Ayelet Zurer 飾演。
Terminator Salvation 北美五月廿一日 港譯：未來戰士2018 五月廿八 Trailers & Clips T4 當然是繼續一貫個故事，講到果個命中注定，帶領人類反抗 Skynet的機械人嘅 John Connor，已經三十歲嘞。今次仲玩 Time line theory，有個可能是將來的人，返到嚟幫阿John，反抗 Skynet啲機械人，佢信唔信得過呢？會晤會又是 Skynet 的陰謀。 今次由蝙蝠俠的 Christian Bale 飾演 John Conner，人類的首領。
Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian 北美五月廿二日 港譯：翻生侏羅館2 五月廿一 Trailers & Clips 上集 Night at the Museum 的全球賣座，變成有今年的續集，睇嚟會是玩得豪啲，勁啲，因為上集收得，投資者當然肯放水喉。繼續有上集的 Ben Stiller 做主角，再加上 Enchanted 的 Amy Adams 主演。
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen 北美六月廿四日 Trailers & Clips 仍然是 Autobots 同 Decepticons 兩派的變形金剛對壘，人類捲入其中。主要是睇啲 transformers 變身的特技，同打闘場面，邊個演人類的配角，其實沒有問題，不過仍然由上集的 Shia LaBeouf 和 Megan Fox 主演。
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince 北美七月十五日 港譯：哈利波特–混血王子的背叛 七月十六 Trailers & Clips 故事唔使介紹嘞，本來是去年 萬聖節上映的，改到零九年七月至上映，喺唔喺在啲試映場，啲觀眾意見好唔掂呢？都拍咗咁多集喏，再冇新嘢特技，就會很悶了。當然還有一貫的 Daniel Radcliffe 和 Emma Watson 主演。
但小本的製作的，沒有雷聲的，也有幾部 Catch my eyes 介紹如下：
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past 北美五月一日 Trailers & Clips 由 Matthew McConaughey 配 Jennifer Garner 領銜主演。故事借 聖誕故事 Christmas Carol 條橋，Matthew McConaughey 飾演鑽石王老五，遇到三隻女鬼，她們是鑽石王老五的舊女友鬼魂，她們企圖改變他的愛情觀。應該屬于愛情小品，一些也不會沉重，輕輕鬆鬆咁，又一百一十五分鐘的鬆弛，倒是不知排到幾時才在香港上映，會晤會留返聖誕節呢？
Up 北美五月廿九日 Trailers & Clips ，是 迪士尼 加 比思 的出品，有優質保證，今次又玩咩呢？一位以賣氫氣球為生的老人，決定用他的氫氣球升起整間屋，去環游世界，點知一位不速之客，一位肥仔誤打誤撞，入埋間將要升起的屋內，唯有就一起出發罷。Pixar Animation Studios 名片如雲，凈睇個朵，到在香港上映，我就乖乖快快科水購票入座。
Land of the Lost 北美六月五日 Trailers & Clips 這是 Will Ferrell 的笑片，呢位老兄有時都幾難頂，不過今次講利用 Space - Time Vortex，去到古代蠻方探險，為了證明他的發明理論成功，他要盡快趕回來現代。今次有 Will Ferrell 的惡頂攪笑，又加入特技，應該有番啲睇頭。由其是我喜歡 time travel 這個課題的電影，相信到在港上映時，都會捧場入座。
My Sister's Keeper 北美六月廿六日 Trailers & Clips 有 Cameron Diaz 演媽媽, Abigail Breslin 演細女兒 Anna，而 Alec Baldwin 演律師。故事是頗具爭議性的課題，媽媽的大女兒 Kate，生下來就患有白血病 leukemia, 于是夫婦兩人就決定生下細女兒 Anna，由細女兒捐贈骨髓，幫助大女兒繼續生存。細女兒年幼時已受盡捐贈者的折磨，但因為年幼而沒有能力反抗。 到了長大些，細女兒 Anna 就找來一位律師，代表她向法庭提出，申請自決的可能性。嘩！凈睇個介紹已經好吸引，在港上映時，都會挖埋荷包，科水入場看看。
Julie & Julia 北美八月七日還未有 Trailer，影后 Meryl Streep 再次伙拍 Amy Adams ，今次講美食。Meryl Streep 演 Julia Child 寫了一本烹飪書 Mastering the Art of French Cooking, 而 Amy Adams 飾演的 Julie Powell，就打算依書內容，去烹調出美食。兩位女士在不同時空，同樣對烹飪的熱誠。電影故事是根據 Julie Powell，記下她心路歷程的書：Julie and Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen 改編而成的。
還有幾部由大明星主演的電影，但睇落不入我的選擇：
The Taking of Pelham 123 Starring: Denzel Washington John Travolta
The Proposal Starring: Sandra Bullock
Public Enemies Starring: Johnny Depp Christian Bale Marion Cotillard
Funny People Starring: Adam Sandler Seth Rogen
Inglourious Basterds Starring: Brad Pitt

2009 上半年北美影事
2009 上半年北美影事
上網 Yahoo Movies 北美的網頁，2009 的大片都是續集的世界。當然會有一些雋穎小品，又有啲故事看來幾有趣味的，引起我的注意，但又唔知要幾時才排到在香港上映嘞。
Inkheart 北美一月廿三日 Trailers & Clips
Brendan Fraser 今次做人老豆，晚上讀故事書諳個女瞓覺，點知啲故仔裡面的角色，會變成真實的，返嚟搵佢同佢個女嘅，有次一個書中的惡人，捉咗去個女走。條橋有啲和 Bedtime Stories 相近噃，咁個老豆就讀多幾本故事書，搵啲書中嘅好人，出嚟幫手救返個女喇。部電影還有 Helen Mirren 和 Jennifer Connelly 合演添。
Last Chance Harvey 北美一月廿三日 wide 08-12-25 limited Trailers & Clips
講一個中年到尾的男人，一次去倫敦參加個女的婚禮，但個女同個繼父感情仲好過同佢，非常失落，點知又冇端端畀老闆炒埋魷魚。咁就咁啱畀佢遇見一位女士，她是位淑女也是熟女，只顧工作，畀母親時常提醒婚事。兩人當然不知不覺咁 cross with each other，有冇發展呢？ 睇電影簡介就好似冇嘞，只是中年男女巧合的遇上，淡淡的側身擦過，沒有激烈的火花，沒有燃燒著！電影有 Dustin Hoffman 和 Emma Thompson 兩位演技派的阿哥阿哥擔正，應該好睇呱，但個故事是講啲晚期中年危機個男女，一般年輕的觀眾，唔會入場，會晤會入到場，全部是的阿公阿婆呢?
New in Town 北美一月卅日 港譯：緣份初到埗 Trailers & Clips
一向對 Renee Zellweger有信心，覺得她選擇去演的電影，都有番啲水準。今次個故事看來平淡啲，講個商界女強人，由大城市邁亞密，調到風雪中的明尼蘇達州，讓她發現重新計量，小鄉鎮和大城市的價值觀。上次看 Renee Zellweger 的電影是 Miss Potter ，雋穎的故事，平淡得來，很有驚喜，今次又睇佢喇。
Coraline 北美二月六日 Trailers & Clips
是用啲公仔，一格一格咁去拍成的電影，個故事有啲借宮崎駿的千與千尋條橋。講個小女孩進入了，一個和現實平衡的世界，裡面有她的父母，同其他人物，但都是對眼變成兩粒鈕扣，Wow！幾恐怖。負責配音的有 Dakota Fanning 配 Coraline，靚太的 Teri Hatcher 配佢媽媽。
He's Just Not That Into You 北美二月六日 Trailers & Clips
一部典型的女人戲，但不是好像之前的 The Women，連一個男角都冇。而是以一群姊妹們面對男女各種復雜的情況。 有班後生啲個女星主演，計有 Jennifer Aniston, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Connelly, 還有 Drew Barrymore 本身既是 producer 並且客串一角。
Push 北美二月六日 Trailers & Clips
講話個故事在香港發生的，嘩！點解冇聽講過嘅，是荷里活搭個香港街頭景，加埋啲香港景色遠鏡頭，咁就當喺在香港發生？ 故事講未來有一班基因改造的戰士，各有不同特長，去為啲政客打啲無謂嘅仗，去殺掉唔聽話嘅人。咁其中一個改造人嘅第二代，逃亡咗嚟咗香港躲避，畀其他的改造人追殺。Casting 有 fantastic four 的 Chris Evans，還有 Dakota Fanning 主演。
Dragonball Evolution 北美四月八日 龍珠:全新進化 未有Trailers
由細到大，睇無線電視卡通長大的，對鳥山明的龍珠一定有感情，對裡面的 悟空，龜仙人等等的角色熟識。 唔知個故仔是跟足呢？ 還是成個唔同哂呢？還有又邊處講到邊處停。主演的有 Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, 還有 發哥 Chow Yun-Fat 添。
嚟緊的大片全部是續集，計有：

Frost/Nixon 港譯：驚世真言 有關水門事件的 尼克遜總統接受記者訪問的故事，去年十二月五日已經 limited，在北美上映。由演出同名舞臺劇的兩位資深演員，Frank Langella 和 Michael Sheen 親自演出電影版。Trailers & Clips
