Excellent, that saves me from having to appreciate someone else's different point of view!<br />3. You probably do like it more than me, but I didn't hate it! I just don't own it on disc (or Final Frontier. Or half the Next Gen films).<br />4. Fair enough. Babylon 5 is a strange low-budget series with theatrical acting and cardboard sets, so its appeal was never going to be universal. Though there is a reason people are still discussing it, and not series like Seven Days, Sliders, War of the Worlds, Andromeda etc.<br />5. I don't remember that, but then I never saw the film at the cinema. I don't remember ever reading about it either though.<br />6.

Well, except, I think I enjoyed The Voyage Home more than you did. You should re-watch it! However, I do agree the soundtrack is pretty damned awful. Christmas space music?? Really?? <br />4. I like you're writing. But I won't be reading your rwviews of B5. Could never get into that show.<br />5. I saw TSFS in the theatre. I have this memory of Kirk shooting the Klingon on Genesis, but instead of a phaser pulse, which we've seen consistently on all home releases and DVDs, it was actually a mini-torpedo that was propelled from his pistol. Does anyone else remember this?<br />6. Also, watching in the theatre I remember the Enterprise warping to the Genesis Planet as a long streak from left to right. In all releases since, it's been variations on a more fore-shortened streak, flying more toward the viewer. Maybe my 8 year old self was seeing things, but these memories have haunted me for decades. Any clarifation or corroboration would be appreciated :-)<br /><br />Aaron The Faziltonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068470951251170954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685723882144479396.post-91892674436212428752016-07-18T22:51:41.255+01:002016-07-18T22:51:41.255+01:00I've just watched this -- well, it's still...I've just watched this -- well, it's still on as I type this, but it's the Vulcan hippie ceremony bit at the end -- for the first time in ages on SyFy -- ugh -- and it's better than I remembered. It's slow, and it seems small and cramped somehow, but I enjoyed watching it.thekelvingreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928260185408072124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685723882144479396.post-17548646748027069092016-07-08T21:36:13.239+01:002016-07-08T21:36:13.239+01:00Sulu on the other hand is doing just fine with wha...<i>Sulu on the other hand is doing just fine with what he's got.</i><br /><br />That's because Sulu is awesome, and he knows it; just look at his face in that picture. He even makes that weird leather jacket-cape theing look good.<br /><br /><i>Okay, who gave Chekov the code to destroy the Enterprise? He's not even from this ship, he was the first officer of the Reliant!</i><br /><br />I think they do something similar in <i>First Contact</i> too. Worf just strides onto the <i>Enterprise</i> and carries on as if he hasn't just spent a year on DS9.<br /><br /><i>Seems like a good excuse to have yet another mid-life crisis and start a new career as a dashing space pirate</i><br /><br />I love <i>Star Trek IV</i>, but my gosh, now I wish the series had gone in a different direction. Space Pirate Kirk would have been great. Contrary to Roddenberry's vision, but great.thekelvingreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928260185408072124noreply@blogger.com
