Publisher's summary

The sequel to the best-selling Star Trek Memories, documenting in deliciously lurid and candid detail all the behind-the-scenes shenanigans in the making of the six Star Trek movies, with on-the-scene reporting from the set of the seventh in which Kirk dies!

Star Trek Movie Memories recounts all the chaos, creative turmoil, backstage politics, power plays, and production nightmares that permeated every one of the six Star Trek movies, including the accumulated grudges that haven't yet mellowed with the passage of time. And the stories... Nicholas Meyer writing the script for Star Trek II in 12 days... Kirstie Alley doing her Leonard Nimoy imitation in an audition... How Kirk's love interest in Star Trek IV began as a role for Eddie Murphy... and you can imagine the rest (or maybe not).

With stories and quotes from the principles that have never before been uttered in public, this will deliver a truly unprecedented behind-the-scenes view of the Trek films that will amaze even the most avid Trekker.

Shatner is witty and entertaining

This book was so much fun, hearing all the details of what happened behind the scenes of the Star Trek television program and the movies. Shatner’s brilliance shines through.

Shatner talks about the movies.

From the end of the original series to Star Trek Generations this book has Bill Shatner describing his work on Star Trek.

Bill, Thank you!

Loved every story and word. As the book inched closer and closer to the end, I just felt sad and wanting more. Again, I would like to thank Bill for sharing all of these stories and insights to his life.

Not As Good As The First Book

I enjoyed it, probably way more than I should have to be honest. There's still a lot of great stuff and stories in there about our beloved Star Trek. The worst part of it was that Shatner spends a seemingly endless amount of time talking about his gawd-awful Star Trek V movie "Final Frontier". Ewww that movie stunk, and he doesn't seem to acknowledge that. Anyway, if you want to read/hear about the making of possibly the all-time worst Star Trek movie, and a lot of other stuff, this is your book.

Into the Final Frontier

A fascinating story about the casts experience and troubles during the filming of the original films. Great read by William Shatner (and author) and descriptive story telling for Trekkies like me.

Interesting to hear about how some of my favourite movies got made.
William Shatner does a good job here :)

One to enjoy...

If you have been involved with the Star Trek franchise for any length of time, you will have undoubtedly formed an opinion of William Shatner. If that opinion is a positive one, you will enjoy this offering.

Surprisingly if one holds a less than stellar opinion of Shatner, you will probably enjoy this just as much!

Hearing the stories from his perspective is valuable and entertaining.

The interesting thing is how it all works together when you read the experiences of the others involved with Star Trek.
They all whirl together to give one a fairly complete summary of the experiences of the cast and writers of this far reaching collection of stories.

Read this one, and take in all the rest, I hope you will see how the entire picture formulates itself once they have all been experienced.
