This was Majel Barrett's last work before she died - one last time she was the computer voice.

Yeah, I heard that too about Mrs. Roddenberry, last December I believe.

Now I can't throw around any crits or anything like that since I only have watched Star Trek Voyager (got Season 1 and 2). I haven't seen the originals or TNG or any others... yet. But good movie got some laughs out of it too

No kidding? Wow, are you lucky, you get to experience it for the first time.

I recommend beginning early in Season 1, say with Balance of Terror. Interestingly, this battle scene was played out like a destroyer/submarine enagagement.
