“V has some of the best moments in the entire series. The camping scene is both funny, and insightful. I also love the scene in the brig. (u0026quot;I oughtta knock you on your Goddam ass!u0026quot;…….u0026quot;Want me to hold him, Jim?u0026quot;)u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe only mistake was hiring an effects crew who had never done motion control blue screen model effects before. And that was NOT William Shatneru0026#39;s fault. That was Ralph Winteru0026#39;s and Harve Bennetu0026#39;s fault. Quit blaming William Shatner. The producers hold the purse strings, and hired idiots. Watch the new DVD and you will see model test shots that were not for action blocking, but were the effects team actually trying to figure out how to do the effects. Lameu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWatch this movie, focus on the characters, and ignore the space shots, and itu0026#39;s pretty good. I think since they reworked ST:TMP with new effects based on the original story boards, they should have done the same for ST:V for the new DVD. That would have fixed the whole movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBesides all of the exterior ship shots, the scenes I would have fixed are as follows:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe turboshaft – Change the deck numbers to make sense and erase the shadow made by the boom holding them up.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAll viewscreens – Insert remastered footage digitally to replace the poor rear-projection versions. The new Enterprise would have an even clearer screen, not a grainy, dim one. The only one that worked was the observation windows as they approached the great barrier.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe fall scene at the beginning. Inserting the closeup of Kirk and Spock ruined the entire scene.(Exactly like the parasailing scene in Die Another Day) Seeing a real stuntman is always better than seeing a fake shot of the actor.”
