Turist Ömer: Uzay Yolunda

1. The character "Turist Ömer / Omer the Tourist" played by Sadri Alisik was first introduced as a sidekick in the movie "Helal Olsun Ali Agbi", starring Ayhan Isik. The character became very popular and 7 films were shot for this character between 1964-1973. This movie is the last one. 2. The 7 Turist Ömer movies are: - Turist Ömer / Omer the Tourist (1964) - Turist Ömer Dümenciler Krali / King of the Con-Men (1965) - Turist Ömer Almanya'da / In Germany (1966) - Turist Ömer Arabistan'da / In Arabia (1969) - Turist Ömer Yamyamlar Arasında / Among Cannibals (1970) - Turist Ömer Boga Güresçisi / The Bullfighter (1971) - Turist Ömer Uzay Yolunda / Star Trek (1973) 3. Star Trek was very popular in Turkey at the time. Because of that, the crew of USS Enterprise were played by the dubbing artists of the show in Turkish TV channel TRT, which was the only channel at the time. 4. The adventure of USS Enterprise in this film (the story with the salt-monster) was taken from an episode of the original show. 5. The film contains multiple Turkish jokes. They're mostly shown as the funny clash between Omer's humorous character and Spock's rationality.

This Turkish movie is the first motion picture on StarTrek. Although the story is the same as the classic "man-trap" episode, film inserts a Turkish man "aka. Turist Omer" into the story. Turist Omer is a funny poor Turkish guy wýthout a job and wýth a unique Turkish way of seeing things. His thoughts about the startrek universe makes a Turk (like me) have a lot of fun (eg. he warns Spock about the police control while Spock talks about the speed of the Enterprize). Unfortunately all jokes are Turkish type and very hard for a foreigner to have much fun as Turks did. However it is the most funniest movie a have ever watch and a must see for a Turkish movie fun.

This movie,in my opinion,is even better then "Dünyayý Kurtaran Adam".Every moment of this movie is funny,from begining to the end.Especially the dialog between Ömer and Spock is really fun.Every Star Trek fan should watch this movie,at least just to see the excellent Turkish version of Mr.Spock-KabaKulak!

This is surely one of the biggest cult of Turkish movie history and also one of the biggest of science-fiction genre too. Although you would miss some great jokes if you are not familiar with turkish culture, you wouldn't miss the classic cult dialogues between Mr.Spak and Turist omer.

Try to catch this one!

This movie is a Turkish copy of the famous Star Trek. It a funny movie about a guy that gets transfered from the weddingtable to the Enterprise. He visit different places and the captain and Spock gets anoyed. Its a humorfilled movie. If you ever get a chance to see it...please then see it. Its a movie that you can walk away from and still have that funny feeling inside you.....
