Wonderfest 2007

 

 

Wonderfest began several years ago as a toy convention, but has since crossed over into the sci-fi and fantasy realms.  It is held every year at the Executive West Inn in Louisville, Ky on or about Memorial Day weekend.

 

Though Wonderfest still focuses on model building and other creative activities, it now includes celebrities and production people from all over the film and TV industry.

 

2007 was the first time they would have major guests from the Star Trek realm.  Denise Crosby (Tasha Yar of The Next Generation) and Robert Picardo (the EMH from Voyager).  Both dazzled the crowd with tales from their many film and TV roles.  Denise announced that she would soon begin the roles of Tasha’s mother in New Voyages.  Robert wowed us with his parody of the old classic “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow” that lamented the current state of affairs in the Star Trek Universe.

 

“Now I’m not blaming Enterprise,

But someone’s killed out Franchise!”

 

Thankfully, we have that one on MPEG file!

 

Also present was John Eaves.  He has done a great deal graphicially in the Star Trek Universe, including being the principle designer of the Enterprise-E

 

The show was big.  One of the main ballrooms was the dealers room, and it was packed.  Upstairs, there was a huge room filled with the entries in the model contest, and downstairs was a display of old memorabilia from various sci-fi movies, including Logan’s Run, Rocketman, and the original Star Wars Trilogy.

 

Attendence was so high that the room block in the Executive Inn West sold out and they had to book another room block at the Executive Inn across the street!

 

Wait a minute!

You’re not from Star Trek!

Cool costume though!
