Speaking of Conventions
There really isn't any doubt from the previous post (among other references) that Star Trek conventions really energized the Science Fiction convention movement.
So it is interesting to see this report that there is an upsurge of interest in
Star Trek Conventions with the release of the new film. I'm not sure if that's because people are actively looking for Star Trek conventions -- or are they looking for pictures like in the above story.
But with the pre-registration deadline for CONvergence coming up on the 15th of May, and CONvergence being the closest thing to a Star Trek convention over the next several months in Minnesota, it is be interesting to see if that will also have an impact on CONvergence's attendance.
We're certainly going to have Star Trek panels, and almost certainly Star Trek themed room parties and costumes.
