Creation still makes a mess out of the cons they put on. Why have two auditoriums with competing events going at the same time and do this every day!?! The mess they make with their autograph and photo-ops are completely screwed up every year too. I…

Back in the day when Trek conventions began, this is HOW they began ... by a bunch of fans getting together, renting space, arranging guests, etc. It wasn't the corporate conglomerate it was today until after a corporation moved in, took it over, an…

Sure, I understand that, but imagine being the person paying, say $200 for a specialty ticket versus the average Joe paying $20 a ticket, and then, at the event, Creation announces "Gotcha!" in front of everyone and your $200 ticket gets you nada bo…

a fan run event is a convention organised and run by a group of fans, usually fairly small with say 2 or 3 guests and run so that any profits go to a charity or charities chosen by the organisers. it usually lasts 2 or 3 days and the attendance can…

What is the "fan run" event?
August 27
Well it's not a mad house like that anymore or at least the ones i attended. It's more organized now.

I went to a con in Milwaukee (Wisconsin) once, and there was a lotta merchandise auctioned off. All of the proceeds went to charity, so I know that's been done, too. That's a great idea. Why not sponsor a fan films segment? If there's any demand fo…

The "huge mismanagement" was when we went to a con in a major metropolitan city we paid mucho mucho mucho extra in order to get the primo seats and "first come first serve" autograph opportunities (this was before the 'gold pass' stuff that they ins…

Hi from Bonny Scotland. I have been at two Las Vegas Conventions, 2006 and 2008. I really enjoyed it, I gold passed it twice but haven't been since the Hilton stopped having the star trek experience or Quarks Bar. I agree with some of the comments…

What was the "huge mismanagement" by creations that made you stopped going? One of the big problems is that like you said paramount owns the rights to ST. Even the huge success of ST's lastest movie with jj, nothing has happened since. Since Lucas…

Hey, I did think of something today ... a year or two back, I attended a digital presentation of THE MENAGERIE that was put on in select theatres to celebrate the DVD release of remastered TOS. Why couldn't certain Creation venues feature some of th…

I've been to 2 Vegas ST cons so far. My first was in 2008 and I got the gold pass. In 2010 was my second and i wasn't even planning on going but I decided to go. It was a last minute thing (2 days before the con).  So, what can creations do to make…

You know, it's a tough sell. I haven't been to a Trek convention in a number of years -- my wife and I have been to 3 of them, all sponsored by Creation -- and we specifically stopped going to them b/c of what we saw as huge mismanagement by Creatio…

As far as i know Vegas ST con 2010 broke the record. I'm glad i was part of it.

Actually there have been some good Star Trek stories that have appeared in comic books and graphic novels, and that could be adapted to movies or television.

"and an insult to any true Trekkers intelegence the way they made it." Ehh let's not go there. It's highly favored by the fanbase, not too insulting then. "It was an average comic book plot made into a feature film" So what examples of "average c…

Great action movie, but NOT even close to great Star Trek! So if any of you are interested in a 35mm movie trailer for this movie I have one for sale. It could have been great Star Trek even with the story line, but the way it was done it was just t…

Greetings Captain Lem. How is everything going over on the USS Independence? I am glad that you had some time to join us here. Anyway, the "nosedive" I was referring to had nothing to do with ratings or profit - it had to do with the overall quality…

Jimi, you've been on "repeat" mode with your posts now. If you were confident with your opinion, you would have just stated it once and moved on, guess you aren't.

Yes I'm flying into Vegas on Friday. I am really looking forward to seeing Jeri Ryan, I have never had an opportunity to see her before. That's too bad you won't be able to make it.But Creation seems to be scheduling more Star Trek convention in the US throughout the year.

I did have a chance to go to the Vegas con, but didn't go. Alec Peters actually asked me to help him work his table. There were many reasons involved, but I'm actually glad I didn't go. Not overjoyed, and I'm sure I would have been glad I'd gone, but I'm satisfied with my decision to stay home. I'm not planning on going this year either. I'm getting married in May. My husband will be gone a lot during June and July doing CAP (Civil Air Patrol) stuff and August will be our summer together. Then we'll be back in school in September. I have no current plans for ever traveling too far for a con, but we'll see what happens in the future.

All I did to become MOTM was fill out the form at Roddenberry.com. I'd completely forgotten about it when a friend told me they saw it. Sadly, I didn't make MOTY, though. :o( Oh well, maybe next time. :o)

I actually just moved here late December, I'm originally from Chicago; born and raised. I've never been to a Star Trek convention, but I checked the price for the Vegas con and it said it was $700 dollars a ticket, so I definitely wont make it this year. I bought a pass for Comic Con though, so I'll be at that event.

That is a good line, but you know he's talking about Faith in Klingon Religion. Not faith in God or in Christ.
