Would we have seen a Star Trek film in 1979 without Star Wars in '77?
As many of you might be aware, after the smash hit success of Star Wars, science fiction films, thought to be a mostly dead genre, suddenly started popping up all over the place. One such film was Star Trek I: The Motion Picture.
What impact did Star Wars have on 80's science fiction in general and the resurrection of Star Trek as a similar franchise? Or is this a mere coincidence? Consider that the Star Trek franchise used Industrial Light and Magic for special effects in every film, a studio created by George Lucas. |
