Rad Remastered Trailer and Info

 The new trailer for Rad Remastered reveals that Rad Remastered will be the movie "Rad".

So... Not very helpful.

But then the Marcus Theaters page has one additional nugget:

"This special event will also include an exclusive Q&A moderated by RAD super fan Ed Helms (The Hangover)."

So is the Q&A going to fill 40 minutes? Q&A with who? More updates hopefully to come. 

Mr. Plinkett's Super Happy Fun Star Trek: The Next Generation Mistakes Video

 Although it's very "inside baseball" and not for everyone, the thing that gets me is when Mr. Plinkett loses all sense of making a video and progresses to just mumbling as if only to himself.

Rad Remastered to be Released in Theaters; What is Rad Remastered?

 

Fandango, and other sites, confirm that "Rad Remastered" will be released to theaters March 21st. But what is that?

Not many details to go on. The runtime is listed as 2h15m which means it is about 40 minutes longer than the official version. Bill Allen confirmed on facebook that there will be "added footage".... which makes sense, I would assume they didn't make the runtime longer by playing it slower, but what is the footage? The first thing that comes to my mind would be to include the deleted scenes about which so much has been made, but even if that's the case, that would only account for 3 minutes of the 40.

At the 35th Anniversary release, they played a trailer for a new "Rad" documentary that was being made. That documentary, as far as I can tell, never came out. I wonder if this could be a way to hook people into seeing that in the theater as a pre-movie "extra." 

The poster states "Celebrate Rad Day March 21." It's my guess that "Rad Day" just means that it's going to be in theaters on the anniversary of the original release (March 21, 1986).

So, what is going on? I don't know. Will post again if additional information is released.

Thanks to Victor for the heads up.

Popcorn in Bed - Star Trek VI

Cassie watched, I think, 3 episodes of Star Trek and since then has been making her way through the movies.

I think my favorite Star Trek movie is VI.

I've always loved the nonsensical but dramatic line "DON'T WAIT FOR THE TRANSLATION, ANSWER ME NOW!" I've never found anyone else who feels the same way. In fact, I'm realizing now that people generally hate that line. They resent it, even. Particularly at the DMV.
