112: Is Tomorrow Yesterday?
What's Past Is Prologue.
Nostalgia is perhaps one of the most powerful forces that
influences our lives. The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary’s
second definition of Nostalgia describes it as being “a wistful or
excessively sentimental yearning for return to or of some past
period or irrecoverable condition; also: something that evokes
Nostalgia.” In today’s world of recycled Hollywood content,
reboots, refreshes and retellings - has the entertainment industry
created a rift in Star Trek fandom, to the point where preserving
the "glory days" is the only way for some fans to move forward?
In this episode of Standard Orbit, hosts Norman C. Lao and
Jeffrey Harlan are joined by Portal 47’s Larry Nemecek and Mission
Log’s John Champion. They take a deep and concerned look at the
power of Nostalgia and its undeniable influence over fandom's
appreciation for Star Trek; specifically The Original Series, and
share their observations towards Nostalgia as it continues to
influence the interpretation of perhaps the greatest of Star Trek's
tenants: IDIC - Infinite Diversity through Infinite
Combinations.
