1999 TOS
Homages.


It turns out that 1999 was a big year for science fiction
franchises. Not only did people finally get a new Star Wars movie,
but three homages to Star Trek saw wide release that year. In this
episode of Standard Orbit, Mike and Drew look at three movies that
came out 15 years ago: Trekkies, Free Enterprise, and Galaxy Quest.
Join us as we open up this time capsule and explore the conventions
of the mid-Nineties, Mark Altman/Robert Meyer Burnett's
not-really-biopic about nerds finding love in L.A., and the best
movie about actors being mistaken for their characters since The
Three Amigos!
