They've ruined part of the charm of the original series with this "upgrading" of effects. Some of us like the fact that there are rolling numbers on Sulu's chronometer and the rocks are styrofoam. It's like trying to "upgrade" "Stairway to Heaven". "Well, Page's guitars just aren't good enough here. Let's get Steve Vai to come in and play them all over." GEEZ! This is a disgrace.

GEEZ!

Hence the word "torpedo" and not ray or bolt. They do use matter and antimatter which are stored seperately in the torpedo and then combined and detonated. They glow (and always have from TOS through VOY) b/c of the propulsion used by the torpedoes. #79 I too wish they would do something with the bridge screens. Unfortunately it was not b/c of time or money. Okuda has said it's b/c they don't look right animated. It's too bad, b/c they were always meant to be animated. It was dropped after the first pilot b/c of the time and money involved paying people to operate the slide projectors from behind. #69 the torpedoes are in fact objects.

This is one of the reasons why CBS Digital has standardized the shots. The now always will come from emitters just above the sensor dome. That dome is a for sensors and the ion pod (that last one is conjecture). #89 – The show was really inconsistent as to just where phasers came from.

I love CG, but the way it's being used with TOS almost makes it looke like an animated series. Sometimes, bad looking but gruzzy sci-fi shots from the 60's need to stay that way. I wish I could see these episodes all cleaned up with small "corrections" in the visual effects. I want to like this as a big fan of Trek, but the 2.0 is distracting and feels out of place when the visual effects come up. I’m not feeling this.

HE's probably going to be pissed but I took a piece of video from his website and zoomed on the nacelle so you guys could see what I mean. I think he totally has timing of the flashing DEAD ON.

"I loved this episode and all of the new work that went into it. I'm amazed by the fact that no matter what is done , someone will find something to complain about. Sheesh! I was one of the great unwashed, that had the audacity, years ago, to ask "What if they redid the FX for TOS?" I for one am damned glad they did. Considering they have no budget, I think they've done a stellar job and I for one, am glad to see the changes. The new Fesarius didn't take anything away from the original and only added to the beauty of the ship and show. I can't wait for more and will definately be in line for the new DVD sets. I'm proud to be an "old school" TOS fan, but I'm also proud to see the new effects. I think they are magnificent. Watch your old DVD's and leave it alone. No one is bashing cannon. At least this isn't the travesty that was "Enterprise" wanna be Star Trek." To quote myself from another thread.
