The 200-strong audience thought they were settling down to watch an extended screening of the 1982 Star Trek film The Wrath of Khan, followed by a 10-minute sneak preview of the new JJ Abrams movie, which was due to premiere in Sydney, Australia several hours later.

Minutes into the screening at the Alamo Drafthouse theatre, however, the cinema projection appeared to suffer technical problems and the writers came on stage to apologise.

They were joined by a man in a trenchcoat who removed his baseball cap to reveal himself as Nimoy, the actor who played Mr Spock.

"Tonight, in about three hours from now, in Australia they are running the Star Trek premiere of the new movie," Nimoy said. "So you're going to see, what, 10 minutes of the new movie tonight? Wouldn't you rather see the whole movie?"

To whoops of delight from the audience, many of whom were in tears, Nimoy went on: "I tell you what. I think it's wrong that Australia should be the first to see the new movie. I think it really should have its world premiere right here, tonight, in Austin."

      His on target percentage is way down. 79% last year down to 64% this year.

      Bills predictions

      I think we will surprise. We'll run all over them, and Dalton will be able to spread the ball around more effectively than Bryce. I just don't see a blowout like some are predicting. I heard the same thing about the Cowboys, but the Bills don't have anything close to Pickens. Not guaranteeing a win or anything, but it is possible. It will be closer than people think.

      If you look at almost all Daniels stats, they are as good or better than last year minus perhaps Completion Percentage. I don't think Daniels himself is having very much less individual success than the Redskins are reverting to the mean.  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts#wsh Barnwell wrote about them in the preseason as a team that had an inordinate amount of luck or success in one score games that wasn't very likely to be repeated.
