#85 – You should read one of the articles on that website about the death of Robert Walker. Very interesting reading. And no, it did not involve liquor.

Just saw it. Wife and I could barely stay awake. How many pregnant pauses can Tim Russ inject into those scenes??
The only thing that held our interest was the injection of our own MST-style comments, which made it bearable.
Documentary style? It was like watching Cloverfield! Invest in a tripod, please.

I just found out that it is not just Of God’s and Men, It is anything that is streamlined through Dragonfly. I didn’t used to have this problem. I can’t contact them to ask about it.

How can anyone stand to watch this? 10 seconds of video, then a 15-second pause ["Loading video..."], then another 10 seconds of video, then another 15-second pause……AAAARGH!

Did anybody notice that Chekov kind of did a “reverse McCoy?” “I’m a Freedom fighter, not a doctor.”

>>And since when were the controls of the TOS transporter operated by touching the blinky lights??? WTF??

well, it was TOS tech + 40 years of advancement. I’m glad to see they finally put words on the blinky lights– maybe that’s why Bones was so skittish about using the transporter? :-)

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to everyone! I raise my glass of green Tranya to ye!

#125 “They were not using the TNG had phaser effect. They were using the Phaser Effects from the first 6 movies. ”

Not exactly, Trek 5 used the blue beam from TOS with a completely new sound. The phasers, in fact, resembled a variation of the phasers from Trek’s 5 and 6 so a blue beam would have looked better than the orange from Treks 2 and 3. I think 6 might have used orange as well, don’t really remember. But yeah, the blue wouldve fit in better.

And the transporter thing was a big flub too. It was funny watching him trying to touch the different lights before they disappeared! reminds me of the flub on Enterprise, In a Mirror Darkly, when Phlox went to use the original TOS wall com, instead of punching the button, he touched the indicator light on the speaker! lol Geez. C’mon guys, if your gonna bother to use TOS technology, as least familiarize yourself with how it worked.

#123: “Sorry to see they adopted the wimpy TNG hand phaser effect. It just never compared to the seering white hot energy of the vaportizing blue beam and shrill sound of the original. And it really seemed out of place amonst all the other sound effects that were clearly out of TOS. And since when were the controls of the TOS transporter operated by touching the blinky lights??? WTF?? ”

They were not using the TNG had phaser effect. They were using the Phaser Effects from the first 6 movies. As for the Transporter, WHile the ship itself may be old, who’s to say they didn’t make a few modifications?

I’m having trouble watching act 2 – It is stuck on “selecting optimal video for your connection” – I can watch act 1
Anyone else having this same problem?
