'Rebel Without a Cause' Movie and 4K Review

The following review was written by Ultimate Rabbit correspondent, Tony Farinella. James Dean only made three major motion pictures in his short career: “East of Eden,” “Rebel Without a Cause” and “Giant.” Unfortunately, he tragically passed away in a car accident at only twenty-four-years old. He will always be remembered as one of the greatest “What ifs?” in Hollywood history. However, when…

Star Trek: The Next Generation, 101 (Sep. 26, 1987) - "Encounter at Farpoint"

And so begins my first official beginning-to-end viewing of TNG. My introduction to Start Trek was through the movies, and then Voyager, along with reruns of whichever other Trek show happened to be airing whenever I turned on the TV. During that time I would semi-regularly watch episodes of TNG, but I seldom sought it out. The show never drew me in quite the same way as the others, because it always felt a little cheesier, and I was fond of the more “modern” (lol) serialized format commonly found in DS9 and other shows of the late 90’s and early 00’s. Over the years I’ve meant to go back and properly watch the whole series, and this blog serves as a nice catalyst to justify doing exactly that. With that in mind, let’s get on with it!

Written by: D.C. Fontana & Gene Roddenberry Directed by: Corey Allen

The Breakdown

Captain Picard is on his first mission to check out a nifty new trade station named Farpoint, when he’s confronted an all-powerful being who calls himself Q (of the Q-continuum), and insists that humanity is to be judged for reasons that seem pretty arbitrary and petty, but the show needs stakes so we’re going with it. Basically Picard has to prove that humans aren’t the brutal savages they once were several hundred years ago, and Q has decided that the Enterprise’s mission to Farpoint should serve as an adequate test.

It turns out the locals at Farpoint are pretty low tech, but this giant space-faring creature (which is capable of manifesting basically any object, and also, somewhat conveniently, making itself look like a station) crash landed on their planet a while back, and has been made to serve as their personal slave-genie. Everyone figures out what’s going because a) a massive flying saucer arrives and starts blowing shit up, and b) Q pops in to drop a bunch of obvious-to-deduce clues.

Eventually Picard figures out how to free the captive creature by bathing it with energy from the ship, which allows it transform into a giant-space-jelly-fish (of course). Now free to leave, the Jelly fish joins their flying saucer friend, who, naturally, also transforms into a giant space-jelly-fish-mate. The two fly off holding each other’s tendrils, and the crew of the Enterprise are left to ponder how beautiful-and-totally-not-ridiculous this moment is. Oh and Q agrees to leave the humans alone for now, because they passed the test by not violently slaughtering the anyone, but promises to come back one day with even trickier tests.

The Verdict

On the one hand this ages only slightly better than milk, on the other hand the writing is tonally pretty consistent with the original series, and by that standard ‘encounter at farpoint’ is not unsuccessful. I’ll give high marks for the model work shots of the enterprise, which holds up pretty well when you consider this was released in 1987. But as I’ve indicated, the writing is melodramatic and cheesy, which can be entertaining, but it just goes a little too far here for my tastes. I’m a fan of John de Lancie’s Q, but my familiarity with the character (and the series) lies in the later episodes, and I find that he’s one-dimensional and obvious with his first appearance. I feel similarly about most of the characters, but I’ll cut the cast some slack since the script lays on so much camp that I think virtually any actor would be hard pressed to deliver a 3-dimensional performance; indeed even Patrick Stewart seems unsure of himself.

2 stars (out of 5)

Additional Observations

Comparing it to the DS9 Pilot I see a lot of similar devices being used. The Captain/Commander must convince beings of great power (who aren’t bound by a traditionally linear existence) the merits of their existence, ending with the promise of further encounters. Not a criticism, just something I hadn’t noticed before.

Lots of jerky camera movement (pans, tilts, and zooms alike).

Cameo: The Dr. McCoy cameo is nice, if somewhat obligatory.

HOLY CRAP Picard is an asshole. I’ve only seen a handful of episodes from the early seasons, so it’ll be interesting to see when it was that he became less surly. I wonder if it’s a transition that will be marked by distinct character beats, or if it just kind of happens. - Wesley IS annoying though. I know bullying is wrong, but I laughed when Picard yelled at him to leave the bridge. I’m so sorry Wil Wheaton.

HUGS FOR SWEEPS

It was great to see all the Bear kitchen crew get an awad

Even though I don't trust Sweeps I know he's a very important part of the show. Maybe they'll expand his role in Season 3. Sweeps, Nat and Fak are up to no good and I want them to get called out

He got great hugs from Sydney

And Carmy

It was cool and weird at the same time
