Mr Roddenberry himself gave the whole show a complete A to Z visual makeover for the first Star Trek film in 1979...and the fans loved it. I wonder what he would think of this latest rendering of his remarkable vision? BTW….This is not the first time the original series has been re-vamped.

I wonder what he would think of this latest rendering of his remarkable vision?

I would have preferred they went all out to upgrade effects and sound to better fit the look of the series with later Star Trek series. This is not a blasphemy. We all of us can always sit back and watch the unfettered and still very enjoyable series in it's original form if we wish. George Lucas had no compunctions in re-vamping the Original Star Wars film with over $100,000,000 worth of new CGI efects.

It's a little pathetic to say that the original ones are more convincing to me than the new ones!

The reaction is only Kirk's. It provides the final tag to the episode. In the teaser, Kirk wishes for shore leave while eyeing a female crewmember. All plans are disrupted by the emergency. At the end, Kirk wishes for shore leave while eyeing another female crewmember, thus signaling that all has returned to normal. Oh, by the way, we are talking about Jim Kirk. ;-) Looking is allowed.

And I don't know if you have noticed, but there are plenty of others around here who make more than backhanded slaps at others. Sometimes they make forehanded slaps. Sometimes a closed fist. And occasionally I have noticed use of 'the piledriver." (That one should be banned - It IS in some states) It's just a term I use for the series since I don't like the now commonly used term or its three-letter abbreviation. The show is called "Star Trek," followed by nothing else. When the term "Star Trek" is used, it means the 1966-69 series and nothing else. That was the complete name of the show. All the other ones need the extra stuff, since that is what they were named. So I will continue to call it "Star Trek" or "the real series" or "the series" with no offense intended towards anyone except the people who came up with that other unnecessary term. re: 113. Lord Garth Formerly of Izor - April 13, 2007 "112… The Stankmeister… Why doesn’t The Star Trek The Motion Picture Warp Effect belong in the real series ??"

After totally obliterating a unique single celled creature, barely escaping with their lives and ship intact, and discovering that Spock was still alive, the reaction of the bridge crew in the final scene (Kirk and McCoy in particular) is to have a hearty chuckle and lear at a cute yeoman in a short uniform. I agree with #118 -- not the type of behaviour expected so soon after such an ordeal. I also spotted a continuity error that I never noticed on previous viewings of this episode. In the scene where Spock and McCoy are at the door to the shuttlebay waiting for it to pressurize, Spock steps over to the right of the door, leaving McCoy in front of the control panel. McCoy is wearing his short-sleeved sickbay uniform. The camera cuts to a closeup of the control panel, and an arm reaches in and punches the “open” button. Only McCoy could have reached the panel (since he is right beside it) but the arm is clearly wearing a long sleeved uniform tunic with stripes on the cuff! Now that one would have been a challenge for CBS Digital to correct The episode is actually quite dramatic, tense and serious in its presentation, however, I find that the ending gives it the aroma of cheese.

He might as well have elbowed McCoy in the ribs and said, "Forget the space-amoeba, on shore leave, I hope to be doing a lot more thrusting and penetrating of membranes!"
