The Great Links (5)

  • Now that my Bechdel-Wallace testing of Trek is done, check out the summary of results at The Mary Sue.
  • In a TrekMovie interview, Walter Koenig talks about how Leonard Nimoy fought for Nichelle Nichols to get pay equity on Star Trek.
  • Right around the same time I came across this CNN article about the role Nichelle Nichols played recruiting women and people of colour for NASA’s astronaut training programs.
  • As part of my reporting from STLV I published two posts for The Mary Sue. The first is a review of The Green Girl, an amazing new documentary about Susan Oliver (aka Vina in “The Cage”).
  • My cosplay photos from STLV 2014 are also up at The Mary Sue – includes an amazing Borg Queen, an amazing Steampunk-meets-Star Trek mashup costume, Ishka (“Moogie”), men in TNG skants, unicorn dog (!!) cosplay, and much more!
  • And if you enjoyed those, there’s another great STLV cosplay photo gallery at the LA Weekly.
  • Not gonna lie, I got a little choked up reading Trek novelist David Mack’s defense of LGBTQ relationships in his books. This io9 article by Katharine Trendacosta has the story.
  • I have a new book review up at The Geek Anthropologist, for Gendering Science Fiction Films by Susan A. George.
  • The Open Book Blog reports on the diversity (or lack thereof) in the top 100 grossing domestic sci-fi and fantasy films.
  • At My Year of Star Trek, Ashley Rose discusses the “bad boyfriends” of Star Trek, from Neelix to Nurse Chapel’s creepy fiance.
