Love my wife, my dog, and movies. Herzog’s Rogue Film School '16 alum. On 3 starship plaques, danced around a Borg Queen, and served fish and chips to Picard. Formerly a politico, a PR specialist, and a film fest programmer. www.JustinNickels.net
There’s just something special about Star Trek episodes broadcasting on TV.
Found this in my family’s storage recently. Clearly genius work on my part.
Welp we foster failed a puppy and adopted her today. Here’s Dr. Beverly Elaine Crusher Nickels. We are watching the TNG episode Remember Me in her honor.
They’ve got costumes from the Miami Vice movie at the Citywalk AMC.
#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched @letterboxd.social some good ones this week
Happy First Contact Day to all who celebrate. I hope one day you get to have fish and chips with Admiral Picard.
We found this a year ago and have two side by side. It’s nice because the depth is barely larger than dvd cases. We plan on getting two more to place on top down the road. This fits about 200. www.ikea.com/us/en/p/moss...
I know he’s not done, and there will be more down the road, but the fact that I got to be in three episodes of Star Trek directed by Jonathan Frakes is one of my biggest accomplishments and also, since this seems to be a trend today, one of those facts about myself I think people wouldn’t believe.
EPIC was epic and we had an epic Q&A moderated by @realgdt.bsky.social with Baz Luhrman following. Baz was dancing in the back of the theater while it was playing.
I’m so proud of Craig and Brent Renaud and Juan Arredondo for their Oscar nomination for best documentary short. I hate what led to this happening, but they deserve this nomination. Watch it if you can.
My sweet dog Keela passed away this afternoon. She was almost 17. I miss her so much.
I miss taking walks by myself on the La Sirena. It could be very dark when we weren’t shooting on it, but it felt like a tangible spaceship.
Anthony Daniels has held this spot before. Sinners is #1 for me for the year.
Last night we had the opportunity to attend a special screening of Armed Only With a Camera: The Life and Death of Brent Renaud here in Los Angeles. It was followed by a very insightful Q&A with Craig Renaud and Juan Arredondo. It’s one of the best and most important films of the year. Seek it out.
Pierced Tusk seen here. My Tellarite worked in Los Angeles so I assume the piercing was done somewhere in NoHo.
Three years ago I had the opportunity to be a bartender at Guinan’s Ten Forward. 📸 Hugo Villasenor.
Diving into this for the first time since it aired and I only watched the first few episodes. Who remembers it?
If you’re in Arkansas in October you’ll have another opportunity to see Armed Only With a Camera: The Life and Death of Brent Renaud. hsdff2025.eventive.org/films/68d2ff... 10/14/2025 at the Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival
