Star Trek: Klingon

This episode is from the 1996 Interactive Movie game "Star Trek: Klingon".
Written by Hilary Bader, directed by Jonathan Frakes, and featured music by Gregory Smith.
It is presented in first person like a FPS game, though it was a "decision" game, where you watch the action and make decisions at key points.
You assume the role of Pok, a young Klingon about to undergo the Rite of Ascension.
The celebration is interrupted, however, when Pok's father is killed during an assassination attempt on Gowron's life.
Gowron and Pok then swear a blood oath to find the killers and bring them to honorable justice.

I loved Gowron every since he joined TNG and earlier shows. His eyes are what make him bad ass and his acting is the best of a Kligon acting! Added with J. G. Hertzler...EPIC acting!!!

[@taproom113]

Agree ... I also really liked James Worthy from the L A Lakers. He played a very stoic Klingon with a killer 'Thousand-yard' stare that cut right through you. ^v^

[@rodrigogarcia3988]

Haman Karn the Klingons are passionate, batteries of emotion. The Romulans and Vulcans are practically robots that would make for poor storytelling

awesome what he did for the old warrior in honoring his past. ...you can tell he was deeply touched by the gesture.

[@PhilDrury]

It is such a shame they turned Gowron into a prat during DS9. He was one of the best.

[@PhilDrury]

A prat is an idiot; a misguided fool. it is also unfortunately a surname, so no disrespect to those who hold it. My point was that I didn't much like how Gowron was changed for DS9.

[@WilfredIvanhoe]

To be fair, he started to be a jerk already during TNG when he began rewriting the Klingon history books and made Picard wait for his reply for days.

[@jeremymiller531]

he wasnt EVIL in DS9 he was just a politician... Oh ok... sorry for quibling over semantics.

[@calebtimes453]

I loved in the episode of the house of quark when quark was explaining something about economics to gowron and the high council. The confusion on their faces made me laugh

[@ogdocvato]

Robert O'Reilley, the greatest actor to ever portray a Klingon - with all due respect, John Colicos.

I think JG Hertzler was superb as Martok and Martok is one of the greatest Klingons I've ever seen up there with Christopher Plummer as General Chang and Michael Dorn as Worf.

it's an interesting game. save frequently so if you guess wrong you can do it over especially the bomb code. There is also a novel under this name that fleshes out the story. the viewer is replaced by reg Barkley and it's fleshed out with a backstory that is plausible. the story is told during meal breaks during a Klingon/Federation conference.

Klingons never say please or thank you to anyone. They accept an offer with superiority, responsibility, duty, and honour. They challenge someone with brazen authority and bravado. They kill only when it gives them the advantage to defeat their enemies and anyone that stands to destroy the way of the warrior.

[@Ken19700]

[@tarjinder7]

Gowron seeks to weaken the great houses and make them economically dependant on quonos where house gowron holds sway while making the freed worlds view him as a hero thus guaranteeing their loyalty. I find gowrons motivations quite obvious in this

[@RetroMaticGamer]

As in all of Star Trek. Sound like any world leaders you know from history? That's the beauty of Star Trek - they always succeed at getting aliens to mirror our own world's political climate to make even the wildest fantasies believable. Cold War with Klingons in the 60s, then Gorbachev -- I mean Chancellor Gorkon -- starts making peace with us in the late-80s? Then the Klingons are our allies... but the Dominion starts mindlessly threatening in the name of their "Gods" the Founders, roughly when the Taliban first begins to surface... Everything in Trek mirrors something real.

[@corbfisher]

Is it just me, but when Gowron is speaking to another Klingon, doesn't it sound like Cheech and Chong? "There is no honor in smoking a tiny joint. Not every man has the courage to smoke an entire baggie in one rollup. Not every man has the courage to travel the river of ganja . . . ."

[@RetroMaticGamer]

Yup. This one was out first, actually, and was basically tied in with the popularity of the new (at the time) books and audio-cassettes that taught the Klingon language. Hence, the game has a heavy emphasis on the player learning Klingon words and concepts, and has a built-in dictionary.

[@RetroMaticGamer]

Only here and in the 6th movie, and that's considered a continuity error best ignored. Klingon blood had been seen on-screen before and since, and it was red like ours. One of the reasons was the MPAA rating - if their blood had looked human, considering how much of it was flying around at that point of the movie, the desired PG rating would have been directly out of the question.

[@zimriel]

Retro-Matic Gamer Maybe part of the plot against the Klingons on that ship was to drug them. Klingons have a mighty constitution and it would take a LOT to drug them. Enough to discolor their blood perhaps. ... yeah, I'm reaching.
