They're filming Trekkies II at the Pop Culture Expo.

If I see Denise Crosby within 50 fucking meters of Snra. Bitter with a camera, the kid gloves come off. She's gonna WISH she was back with... Ah, fuck. Back with [insert reference here].

Have you seen Trekkies? I know Cindy hates it, but have you ever actually watched it?

I always thought it was rather gentle. Honestly, I did. Most of the people in it just seem very passionate and interesting. They just let people tell their stories - some of them freak the mundanes, others are just very earnest about their fandom.

Wow, did Denise Crosby sell your firstborn or something? :)

From what I've seen, it's 'look at the freaks'. They may seem passionate and interesting, but in an 'other side of the fence' kind of way. It's gentle in the same way a film about downs syndrome kids might be gentle. "They can't help it, please try not to stare."

This is, of course, judging solely from what you've shown me.

No desire to see my family turned into a freak show. Just kinda touchy that way.

I only recall showing you the comedians at the end, who weren't making fun of fandom, but were telling Star Trek jokes.

There are a few freaky people in it, but most of them are "ordinary" fans - albeit hardcore fans. There's a nice bit about two very balanced women who run a Star Trek fan call in radio show, for example, and they follow around a kid who, though he wears the uniform to school, is actually quite intelligent and pleasant.
