Random Wednesday 3-21-12





Here's something of a double whammy for you all today. When you think of science fiction, two names typically are among the first to pop in people's heads. They are:
                                                                 Star Wars
                                     
                                       and...


                                Star Trek


Both have become true icons of popular culture, but here's something unusual about them. Two of the most famous lines quoted from the two series are actually not said in the series at all.


Darth Vader never actually said, "Luke, I am your Father." Re-watch The Empire Strikes Back and you'll discover that the line is a bit different. And in Star Trek, one of the most iconic lines spoken by fans, "Beam me up, Scotty," was never actually said in the entire original series the character Scotty was in.

And that, good fellows, is another week of Random Wednesday.
