Recently went though this, rewatched TOS, TAS, and the first six movies for the first time as an adult. Holy crap, the number of references in all of my favorite media throughout my entire life that have been flying over my head was staggering. Even lyrics in my teenage emo songs were lifted straight from TOS dialogue.

    I watched a documentary and Gene Roddenberry didn't want the flying saucer trope. That's how we have nacelles and deflector dish added to the saucer section.

    The shooter will (slowly) move backwards because of the recoil. Forever.
