The Stochastic Game
Ramblings of General Geekery

I’m binge-watching the remaining Star Trek movies because I want to get to TNG and see what that fuss is about. Anyway, the 3rd movie, “The Search For Spock” is, errr, OK? It’s just a big excuse to bring Spock back, which ruins his sacrifice, so I’m not super on board but, oh well 🤷🏽

The movie poster for "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock". I love these old school posters, they don't do them like this anymore. Also, good on Leonard Nimoy getting to direct this one. He did a pretty decent job there.
"Okay yeah we knew you Vulcans have your burial rites and weird mystic bullshit, but we shot your son not even into space as Federation Navy protocol dictates, but onto the surface of some weird-ass planet that can grow life from nothing. We managed to be ignorant, disrespectful, and stupid"
George Takei gets to kick some ass! I'm so happy for the guy.
"What's going on?" "The writers have found a convoluted way to bring back a beloved character! Watch out!"
