Star Trek-the Motion Picture: A Novel | Alan Dean Foster, Gene Roddenberry, Harold Livingston

Pickpick

(1979) I know I'm supposed to dislike the movie but y'all, I remember going to see it (at the drive-in, kids, remind me to tell you about drive-ins sometime) and you can't tell me it wasn't awesome because man I was there. The book is not objectively good -- it has *footnotes* for crying out loud, and the prose about Ilia's pheremone powers is cringey -- but so what? I can't hear old-man-me's objections over the cheers of my inner 11-year-old.

CatLass007 It was a visually stunning film. I think that watching it on the big screen was a bit tedious after a while. But later on, I remember watching it on the small screen and enjoying it. I don‘t think Roddenberry knew how to do theatrically released movies but he definitely knew how to do television. It was just the wrong medium for the film. I remember reading the book and thinking it was ho-hum. I don‘t remember seeing Alan Dean Foster as (cont)⬇️ 7d
CatLass007 an author or co-author when I read it in when it was published (I was in high school and so many of my friends were looking forward to seeing the movie and we all were disappointed). I thought Foster did a very good job with the book adaptation of TAS. His work was superior to the James Blish adaptation of TOS. But I was so starved for Star Trek when the Blish books were published, that I read them multiple times. 7d
swynn @CatLass007 Thanks for sharing those memories! I definitely remember hearing disappointment from other fans, and would probably have shared it if I had been a little older. But yes, whatever the story's flaws the film was gorgeous. I'm not sure what role exactly Foster played in the novelization, but critical-me thinks that awkwardness in the prose hints that it's more Rodenberry's work than Foster's. 6d

Set in the northern town of Barrow (Utqiaġvik), Alaska, which experiences a polar night of 30 days, vampires set upon the town to feast without having to worry about the sun. I haven't read the source comics yet, but Stacy introduced me to the movie this year, and it is a lot of gory fun!
