00:00The Sci-Fi Channel.

00:14It's been 29 years since the premiere of the classic Star Trek series,

00:19but Creation Entertainment couldn't wait another minute to throw a 30th anniversary bash.

00:24So we sent comedian, Trekker, and buzz buddy, Patton Oswalt,

00:28to Pasadena to check out the star-studded scene.

00:32I'm with Patrick Stewart, ladies and gentlemen.

00:34I can't believe he showed up.

00:35Jean-Luc Picard, who actually even has an English accent for this.

00:39So that's how dedicated he is.

00:40It was very difficult to rehearse and get this accent

00:42with all your Americans speaking to me in this manner.

00:45It takes like four hours in the morning to apply the English accent.

00:49How much weight do you lose like wearing this all day?

00:52Well, wearing it, I usually lose about five pounds.

00:55Five? That's very nice.

00:56And it slims the hips, too.

00:59It's got the shoulders.

01:01I could use one of these, aren't I?

01:02Because I'm kind of hair-shaped, man.

01:04Well, we can hook you up and we can throw you out into space.

01:06Oh, my God.

01:07Guaranteed, you lose about 15, 20 pounds.

01:10That is hypoallergenic, right?

01:11It's very nice.

01:12It will wash off eventually.

01:13It'll breathe.

01:13Did you leave a little strip in the back, like in Goldfinger,

01:15so you're like, won't suffocate or anything?

01:17Well, then she doesn't have a lot of time, folks.

01:20I better wrap this interview up.

01:21Hi, I'm here with Jim Latta,

01:26and he is from the yet-to-be-built Museum of Science Fiction.

01:29Yes.

01:30We've brought some living artifacts today,

01:32not just costumes,

01:33but we've got some real artifacts from the original show.

01:36This is Barbara Luna, who is Marlena Moreau

01:39in the classic Star Trek episode, Mirror, Mirror.

01:42Pretty hot.

01:43Is he a good kisser?

01:44Is Shatner a good kisser?

01:45He's a good kisser.

01:46Is he?

01:46Probably still is.

01:47Oh, I hear that.

01:49Right here.

01:53In the house.

01:55Colonel Green from Savage Curtain.

01:58Huh?

01:58Philip Pine and Charlie Deercup.

02:00And you.

02:01From Wolf in the Fall.

02:03And Marla from Catawba Street, three-foot.

02:05I couldn't have done a thing like that.

02:07Yeah, my genius.

02:08Jealousy is a sin.

02:09I couldn't do that.

02:11What was your favorite line?

02:13Yes.

02:14I don't force you, Volker.

02:16Oh, man.

02:17I would freak out if someone said that.

02:19Give that to me.

02:21You're like an ambassador?

02:23Right.

02:23A Vulcan ambassador.

02:24Vulcan ambassador.

02:25And you, like, come on the ship?

02:28Do the mind reading.

02:29Did you do the mind meld in the episode?

02:30Oh, yes.

02:32What costume is this?

02:34I don't know.

02:34What crew member wore the big Tasmanian devil t-shirt?

02:37I forget that guy.

02:38Oh, no.

02:39Is he like the Navigator or something?

02:40The cook.

02:41The cook.

02:41You should be ashamed.

02:42What's your name?

02:42You should be ashamed of yourself.

02:44All right?

02:44Why?

02:44You're a disgrace to the convention.

02:45For now, you know, when you come here, for God's sakes, put some kind of costume together.

02:50This is Bob.

02:51And Bob has this really cool table full of all of these original collectibles from the Star Trek series.

02:57Some of this stuff, this is like the original stuff, isn't it?

02:59Absolutely.

03:00What's that right there?

03:01That is the Sarian brandy bottle.

03:04Were those mass produced or did some guy make those?

03:06Dickle put these out with and without alcohol.

03:09Like an alcohol company actually manufactured their alcohol in these bottles?

03:12The bottle was so popular on the original series that Dickle started producing it.

03:17Wow.

03:17It was like some Trekkie in the top echelons of this liquor company.

03:21That's cool.

03:21How much does that go for?

03:23A hundred and a half.

03:23How do you feel now that Star Trek is considered kind of this classic, almost like a classic rock kind of thing, like an oldie but a goodie?

03:34I mean, it's 30 years old.

03:35That's great.

03:36That's wonderful.

03:37I mean, something good just doesn't need to fade away.

03:40It's like fine wine, you know, gets better with age.

03:42Yes, it does.

03:43Live long and prosper.

03:44You ready for this?

03:45She teaches a course in Newfoundland, Canada, about like religion and religion in modern society as well as just religion in general.

03:56And she's here because she says that these Star Trek conventions are like modern pilgrimages.

04:02Yes, what I'm interested in is Star Trek convention attendance as modern pilgrimage.

04:06So that's what I'm down here doing, asking Trek fans what they think about Star Trek and what kind of meaning it gives to their lives

04:14and whether this can be seen as modern ritual or whether it can be seen as religious.

04:21Well, this has been one of the greatest days of my life.

04:24And I just want to say thank you for everyone at the Sci-Fi Channel.

04:28And I'll miss you most of all, Klingon.

04:32Bye.

04:33Live long and prosper, everyone.

04:35Subla.
