RED-Alert!, SHIELDS-up..!!






Gene's Ideas, about 
The Futureand about Man
are wacky-doodle


Frakes/Cmdr. Will Riker :
RED Alert, SHIELDS-up! 

David Gerrold : 
He was a flawed man. 
He had great virtues
he had great flaws. 

John Pike :
I thought Gene was going to come 
across The Table at me. 


I saw first-hand Gene's battling
with The Studio. 

Rick Berman : 
Gene was considered somewhat 
of a pain in the neck, he was 
kind of a blustery guy. 

D.C. Fontana : 
Gene wasn't the easiest person 
to get along with but he stuck up 
for his beliefs and his concepts. 

It was just a lot of in-fighting -- 
it was all chaos

Ira Steven Behr: 
There was really scary stuff going on --
There's A Lawyer going around
looking in people's desks 
when they're not there

Brannon Braga : 
I spent the first couple of years 
just worried I was going to be fired

Sir Patrick Stewart : 
My Agent was the first person to Talk to us --
He said, "There wasn't a Hope in Hell
that this show would even make it
through The First Season


SHATNER :
This film is about the turbulent years 
that marked The Beginning of 
Star Trek: The Next Generation —
How it got off the ground 
and survived the chaos 
of the first three years. 

I became fascinated 
with The Strugglenot only 
the creative strugglebut 
The Struggle for Power

Those doors are opening up 
on Stage 6 where The Bridge 
for The Next Generation 
was first constructed. 

Power is an Ephemeral
it's What is Perceived

In order for Power to exist it has to 
be acknowledged by the people 
who are involved in The Work. 

What I Began to See was Gene Roddenberry, 
The Creator of Star Trek, aging 
and in diminishing Health 
trying desperately to 
hold on to His Creative Vision
His Legacyand ultimately 
His Power.
