He’s the character we love to hate, from the moment we saw him in 1999’s The Phantom Menace, Jar Jar Binks became the embodiment of everything wrong with the prequel movies and most people wrote off all of the new movies based on this character’s actions.
But were we wrong? Is Jar Jar Binks actually the ultimate Sith lord who survived all the way through the original trilogy’s timeline and will be ‘reborn’ in The Force Awakens as Supreme Leader Snoke? Lumpawaroo on Reddit seems to think so, and he’s found some serious evidence to back up his claim. Amber investigates in our feature.
Meanwhile, the New Horizons probe sends back high resolution images of Pluto, Han and Chewie bury the hatchet on Jimmy Kimmel and has Peter Jackson confirmed he’s directing Doctor Who next year? Find out in the news.
A huge welcome to everyone, this is SciFi Weekly. Check out SciFi Weekly #1 – Who Is Jar Jar Binks? here. -
For the first time in TREKZONE.org’s history, I have been in a position to be able to express my sadness about losing those who helped bring a show that I enjoy to life. James Doohan passed away in 2005 and I had worked with a Texas based journalist to provide coverage of a mission to launch his ashes into space, but due to the passage of time that has been lost. Majel Barrett passed away in 2008 and TREKZONE.org was off-line.
But with the loss of three alumni this past fortnight, I’ve been fortunate enough to get Larry Nemecek, editor, producer, contributor, actor, archivist and generally an authority of all things Trek on Skype to spend half an hour chatting about how Maurice Hurley, Harve Bennett and Leonard Nimoy helped sculpt Star Trek into the modern icon it became
As with all good discussion about the people involved in Trek, we go off on a tangent about the next series – but it all circles back to realistion that without those lesser known men – Maurice and Harve – we would not have anything more than the original series to talk about.
This will be the last vodcast titled TREKZONE.org Interviews – coming soon (before Oz Comic Con Perth in April) will be a new title.
Thanks to Larry for slotting in the chat amongst his busy day with Trek.fm and other podcasts too! -
The 501st Legion is the biggest Star Wars fan club in the world, and the Redback Garrison is Queensland’s troop. They held a T20 cricket match on the weekend to celebrate ‘Pink Stumps Day’ … an annual charity event to support the McGrath Foundation’s drive to cure breast cancer. Also in this edition, my chat with Tim Russ, how to enter the Wrath of Gems competition and the Star Trek: Horizon trailer.

Being the son of Gene Roddenberry is certainly no easy task, just ask Rod Roddenberry who joined me from LA for a chat to celebrate ten years of TREKZONE.org. Rod spoke candidly about his childhood, and his work to continue his father’s legacy. This is another interview from the archives.

In 2015 the Star Trek family lost three members, Leonard Nimoy, Maurice Hurley and Harve Bennett. While you may not know Maurice and Harve, you certainly know their work… Maurice was show runner for TNG’s first two seasons and Harve was tasked with producing the second to fourth movies. I caught up with Larry last year to chat about their legacy.
