December 29th, 1967: premiere date of the Star Trek episode ‘The Trouble with Tribbles’.
Tribbles – purring, fluffy, and fertile creatures – disrupt the exploitation of a disputed planet between the Klingons and Federation.
Definitely one of my favorite episodes. I have a weakness to small furry animals.
I’m not a huge fan of musicals. I don’t hate them, they’re just lower on my scale of things I wanna watch.
Might explain why I don’t go as bonkers for stuff like Hamilton.
I can’t remember the last live-action musical movie I’d seen before The Greatest Showman. Which I liked.
The trailer intrigued me since the first time I saw it. While I had rarely gone to the circus in my youth, I do remember attending one at the Cow Palace.
The movie was fun, more fast paced that I expected, with some good songs. I’m still debating whether or not to get the soundtrack from iTunes.
Anyways, I recommend it if you’re looking for a change of pace from the super hero or sci-fi film.
