1.  An article by Kate Gardner on  themarysue.com  website on August 21, 2018 is titled   James Tiberius Kirk Is the Original Mary Sue   and the article says how the term "Mary Sue" today is used to mean a character that is "too perfect" that the character is "underdeveloped" and mentions how in Star Trek: Into Darkness, Scotty refers to Kirk as "Captain James Tiberius Perfect Hair" the Article also says that   " In the original series, Kirk is incapable of doing wrong. Part of this is because the Original Series is a happy, hopeful show where good triumphs and the heroes always win the day. But Kirk never takes a misstep. He always wins the day, no matter what. He tells God to get lost and convinces evil, mirror versions of his crewmates to do good in their universe. Women fall at his feet because he’s just that gorgeous and amazing. He’s the king of the galaxy. He’s even more of a Mary Sue in the rebooted version. He gets a tragic backstor

Because let’s be real, there is nothing quite as joyful as the sheer earnestness of the original  Trek  movies. They do not pretend to be cinematic triumphs. They do not aim for a deeper social commentary, outside of the inherent messages of  Trek  such as “be a good person” and “together you and your friends can save the universe.” They’re enjoyable, cheesy rides with a crew that’s so beloved that it’s practically family."  plus she says she loves the Golden Trio of Kirk, Spock & McCoy from TOS and the Trek films, and that her favorite episode is the TOS episode "The Empath"  In Defense of the Original Star Trek Movies Maybe it's nostalgia, but the original Trek films are hardly cinematic disas

Kirk (Star Trek) Here's an easy one to start. Captain James Tiberius Kirk explored strange, new worlds; sought out new life and new civilizations; and boldly went where no man had gone before. As captain of the USS Enterprise, Kirk got into his fair share of scrapes — shooting at giant lizard men, wooing women who fell out of sync with the timestream, losing his shirt in any number of brawls — but always maintained the highest ideals of the United Federation of Planets. Along with his trusted officers and best friends — Mr. Spock and Dr. McCoy — Kirk championed peace, tolerance and understanding among a variety of disparate cultures, al

  . On February 21, 2018 the website io9.gizmodo.com had an article by James Whitbrook  titled   All 11 Versions of the U.S.S. Enterprise, Ranked   Naturally Kirk's Enterprise from TOS comes in at first place and it says " The original series’  Enterprise  is iconic for a reason. It’s a beautiful design, simple and clean—and sharply angled in all the right places—compared to the busy predecessors and successors that would come in  Trek  series after the original. It set the legacy of everything that would come after it, not just in terms of future  Enterprise  refits, but for what a good Federation vessel should evoke to feel like part of the  Star Trek  universe. Forget the word salad mayhem of the refits that came after it—try as you can to evolve and improve on it, you can’t beat a design that cuts such an iconic appearance the first time round."  at #2  place is the Enterprise-A  first seen at the end of the 1986 film Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home,    All 11 Versions

  On August 13, 2018 the website for GQ  Magazine, gq.com has an article titled  Star Trek 4 Might Lose Its Chris(es) and It's a Damn Shame   by Joshua Rivera  , the article tells about how Chris Pine & Chris Hemsworth might walk away from the next Trek Film, and this article says "   "J.J. Abrams's 2009 reboot of  Star Trek  remains, to this day, a damn delight, and a big reason why comes down to Chris Pine's performance as James T. Kirk, the man destined to be the captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise. In  Trek , Kirk is a career delinquent with a genius IQ who mostly uses it to take failed passes at Zoe Saldana and get his ass kicked in bars and—once he gets said ass into space—across the galaxy until he lands squarely in the captain's chair. It's incredibly fun to watch, because Pine is, as we all know, absurdly handsome, and remains handsome even while getting punched. Chris Pine's Captain Kirk is a guy who grins through an ass-whuppin', not be

1. The Startrek.com website on August 10, 2018 has an article titled  The Power of the Starship Enterprise At Your Command   and the article says " The 1970s and 1980s were pioneering days for the video game industry. Paralleling the innovations of home gaming and computing systems was the return of  Star Trek  in the form of new movie adventures. This parallel makes more sense when considering that it was  Star Trek  that helped inspire some of the real-world technologies that produced the video game revolution. The shared history of home video game systems and  Star Trek  is fascinating, and one of the earliest and most popular examples was the porting of SEGA’s 1983  Star Trek: Strategic Operations Simulator (SOS) vector game to home systems like the TI-99/4A. " about how the 1983 game Star Trek: Strategic Operations Simulator based on the Kobayashi Maru sequence in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, helped to transform the video game industry,
