So - apparently - this Star Trek porn homage is taking off. Here's a cast pic from one of the latest. Pretty impressive, actually. I haven't seen the "movie", so I can't speak to that.
It's funny they chose The Next Generation because it's without a doubt the least sexy Trek. The Original Series is clearly the sexiest.
Hey! That's Olivia Munn, beloved of nerds everywhere. But truly, the original fashions rocked:
That's right, ladies - it's a working retro tricorder! Ready to be scanned?
TNG and DS9 were both unsexy, as was Voyager when it started. But then ratings sagged, the network execs stepped in, and we got 7 of 9. The same crew that brought us the sexiest Borg ever also gave us the super-extreme amped to the max sexy Enterprise!
Even though it was the future, it wasn't the super future, so in order to remain free of alien bacteria and space germs, anyone returning from a planet would have to lather up in the Decon Chamber. Preferably, hot chicks and dudes and a dog. Imagine the creative team behind Enterprise creating this "set" - "OK, we got to show more T&A, and we don't have a holodeck. What to do... what to do... DECON!"
Enterprise was a transparent attempt to "Sex up" Trek after the supposed blandness of TNG through 1/2 Voyager. It failed, equally transparently. But that won't stop those slick Hollywood execs from trying to make the next Trek sexier still.
To be fair, at times, few and far between, Enterprise had some cool moments. Check out this segue!
No doubt pandering to nerds like me, but I can't begrudge any mainstream reference to Sagan.

Sadly, the porn Geordie probably does vastly superior acting to LeVar Burton's.
"Mainstream" reference? I think you're kidding yourself there.
LOL. Probably. It was on UPN. That was kinda mainstream.
