14:18 Spock: “I also have a sister”. Kirk: “You made that up”. Spock: “I did not”. Kirk: “You did too. You couldn’t possibly have a sister because I happen to know for a fact you don’t have a sister”. Spock: “Technically you are correct, I do not have a sister”. Kirk: “There you see, see”.

When I directed STAR TREK IV, I got a magnificent performance out of Bill, because I respected him so much." Shatner: "And when I directed STAR TREK V, I got a magnificent performance out of me, because I respect me so much!"

So I re-watched the film and Spock points out that the being wasn't god, merely a malevolent life form imprisoned on this planet behind the Great Barrier and it simply needs the Enterprise to escape. The scene of him turning into sybok was apparently him mocking Syboks arrogance.

Sybok doesn't use "mind control," he convinces people to willingly follow him. That means that the crew of the Enterprise, including our heroes, willingly commit mutiny in this film. Thankfully, Nimoy and Kelly were so disgusted that Shatner wrote this for their characters that they refused to participate unless the script was changed so that Spock and McCoy resist Sybok's influence.

[@mrcritical6751]

Late reply but that especially sucks balls when you take into account that the previous ST movies put such a focus on making the crew feel like a group of old friends all facing the universe together, having them all just willingly turn on their friend like this just ruins that

[@jasonblalock4429]

You know, what really makes me sad about Trek V (and why I can't entirely hate it) is that it's one of the very few Trek movies that feels like it was truly trying to recapture the spirit of the original show. Honestly, chop out the fluff and you'd be left with a pretty solid episode, with that peculiar mix of goofiness, action, adventure, light comedy, and half-baked philosophy that made TOS so popular.

[@matthewmuir8884]

As bad as this film was, it did have one moment that was pure gold: Chekov: "Uhura; can you give us directions back to base camp? Sulu and I are- trapped in a blizzard (Sulu tries to imitate the sound of a blizzard)" Uhura: "The current weather where you are is 64 degrees, and sunny." Chekov: "...Sulu, look! The sun's come out!

[@cthulhupthagn5771]

I have the novelization based off the original script. I've also read Shatner's movie memories book. Some of it was his reach exceeding his grasp but some of it wasn't quite his fault. It was his first film and all the special effects look crappy because he was scammed into giving the budget for special effects to someone who turned out to be an independent person operating out of his garage. The real story and and what should have been filmed was actually pretty entertaining. Most of the plot gaps are explained. Sybok is given Visions on how to recalibrate the shields so that they can pass through the Great Barrier. The Klingon is able to follow because he decides to match the frequency of his Shields to match. The entity was something trapped at the dawn of time and was implied to be responsible for all of the various religions and faiths out there. It had been slowly influencing whatever could in the attempt to get a follower to pierce the barrier and that's why it needed a ship so that this way it could find its way out. It's implied that the true God was what prison this being at the center of the Galaxy and it's implied that the entity itself is Satan. Some of the meta plots in the story dealt with the idea of the cast growing old and what would happen when they die. Syboks power is just him using the mind meld to scan your mind for what troubles you the most, and he is so powerful a psychic he can induce it at range. that's how the rest of the cast can see the visions. email directly with one person but broadcasted short-range. The reason why people follow him is because they're at peace with themselves. As for the ambassadors the reason why the Klingon ambassador doesn't stop things early on is because like all of them he's a failure. They're all sent there because they were all fuck ups and it was a punishment. Its kind of amusing that they get along. the movie would never be tolerable when it first came out I was probably in 9th grade and even then I thought it was kind of crappy. I was especially disappointed because I had bought the book before the movie came out and the book was really entertaining.

[@autobotproductions1244]

cthulhu Pthagn if all that stuff was explained in the movie, it probably would have turned out better

[@shadowspider9]

Interesting. I have to wonder then why they didn't shoot many of these crucial explanation scenes. I doubt it would have taken much time and even if the scenes weren't done well it would have at least made the story more coherent. Or is some of this the case of Nostalgia critic skipping movie over dialogue that does actually explain some of these plot holes.

[@cthulhupthagn5771]

My memory is a bit old, but as I recall Shatner admitted full stop that as a first time at the helm he was in over his head. Many scenes hinged on the SFX contract, and when that turned out to be not what was expected, scenes were cut. Voldemort? He was burying his family and waiting to die when Sybok found him. Sybok was banished from Vulcan for endulging in emotions and a forbidden use of his abilities. *sigh*. The story still wasnt perfect, but you can imagine how middle school me reacted when I saw this in theatres after the book. Check both out! They're cheap on amazon

[@LordDavid04]

So you can't have great space special effects. Then why not utilize Nimbus III more? Have the indigenous inhabitants as part of a "rebellion" against the 3 powers who have colonized the planet simply because it lands inside their respective Neutral Zones. They are factions at war among themselves, which is partly why Paradise City is spared. But Sybok and his followers help unite them to form the rebellion against the Nimbus III Colony. This is where those dune buggies from Star Trek: Nemesis should have been. Have an epic land battle where they siege the city (not that piss weak assault), a proper defense then being succumbed due to overwhelming numbers. A good land based battle lasting at least 10 minutes. When you can't have an epic space battle, then have an epic land one. You revisit this with the covert attempt to rescue the hostages later (minus Uhura's dance). Actually explain away how they get to the great barrier, via wormhole (reuse wormhole footage from The Motion Picture). Make Sybok Spock's surrogate brother, as opposed to a half one. Give the character more backstory as highly intelligent man who had attempted to join the likes of the Vulcan Science Directorate and Starfleet but was rejected, so he goes on a quest for God (perhaps coming upon him in a dream (an illusion to "Row, row, row your boat" perhaps?) and seeks the last piece of the "puzzle" in Nimbus III, which shows him the way to get to Sha-Ka-Ree. All he needs is a starship to get there. Why not just have the transporters working, but you can't beam people in and out because of an Ion Storm over the planet? Oh and what about the Romulans? There should have been a small diplomatic shuttle that sent the new representative to Nimbus III, upon receiving the distress signal, they are about to turn back, but the small ship is taken over by Sybok followers, who have been posing as the old delegation. This would explain why the Romulan government does nothing to assist in rescuing the hostages, whilst at least the Klingons give out the order. Then you actually find "god", an unintentional at the time allusion to Q. A rogue Q perhaps who was sent to be imprisoned on this planet, awaiting rescue. Distract him for long enough so that the 3 can be saved, whilst Sybok sacrifices his life because he learns that the truth he's been searching for the whole time is false (revealed to him by the mirror image of himself through "god"). And of course the Klingons save the day. A film that could have been, if they done their homework and looked beyond limitations.

And it’s his interactions with people that make him feel more whole (which definitely explains the rampant womanizing).

It's a question of what would a bunch of filthy sex starved men forced to sit out in the wasteland of a barely inhabitable planet.

We've seen it before in ST:VOY S2E18 "Death Wish" that a Q who goes against the Continuum can be punished be being sealed for all eternity inside some celestial body (in the case of Quinn, it was a comet).

As soon as the human (with the klingon and the romulan) spoke I practically had a heart attack, because oh shit that's David Warner. I had no idea he was in this movie.

[@brianalambert1192]

Ok, I wish there was a scene after the row row your boat where Kirk and McCoy are whispering to each other once Spock is asleep and they are bummed at the fact that their prank to get spock singing that song on tape didn't work

[@ArrowValley]

I'm one of those odd few who actually enjoys this film. I know it's not very good but I still find it enjoyable to watch and the opening theme when Kirk is climbing the mountain is fantastic.

[@pickledegg1989]

Spock's face at 06:49 is this film in a nutshell.

It is important to wear a helmet in a star ship Scott didn't wear one, and thus he was knocked down by the beam. The stormtrooper was wearing one, and thus he was alright after hitting the beam.

What's the deal with Star Trek and uneven numbers?

[@CathrineMacNiel]

GilCAnjos all odd numbered Movies are considered bad.

[@Numbskill]

Wait. Does this logic apply to any of the Bad Robot Star Trek movies? Because I saw all three. And they're all amazing.

[@guerillagrueplays6301]

The new trilogy of films started as either 11 or 1, depending on how you decide to handle chronology, and did indeed break the history of the odd numbered 'treks being weaker than the evens. That said, despite the common wisdom stating the odd 'Trek films are bad... I honestly quite like several of them. I, III, and even VII are fun enough films; heck, even Insurrection is fully redeemable in my opinion. That really only leaves V as the stand-out terribad film, though it is one hell of a doosie. Don't get me wrong, none of them will sit in the "best of" category, but they're at least better than the Star Wars prequels. V really is shite though. I've tried to watch it several times, and never been able to make it past the half-way point.

[@CaptTerrific]

GilCAnjos if you count Galaxy Quest as a star trek movie, the even/odd rule holds up across all films better :)

[@franohmsford7548]

Star Trek for me: 1) Boring 2) Good 3) Great 4) Awesome 5) Godawful! 6) Awesome 7) Bad 8) Overrated 9) Decent 10) Awful 11) Decent 12) Awful 13) Great Best to Worst 1) Voyage Home 2) Undiscovered Country 3) Beyond 4) Search For Spock 5) Wrath of Khan 6) Star Trek {reboot} 7) Insurrection 8) First Contact 9) The Motion Picture 10) Generations 11) Into Darkness 12) Nemesis 13) The Final Frontier

"Where did this power come from?" All Vulcans are essentially first class psychics. Their entire lore is about how an ancestor named Surak introduced teachings that led to the era of "logic" in which Vulcans learned to either purge their emotions, or master them. It's heavily noted that Vulcans, in their ancestry, were practically walking emotional nuclear psychic bombs. Unless you forgot that even Spock can wipe a person clean if he wanted to. Hell. He even put his entire conciousness into Bones. Sybok merely took to his people's roots and learned the full extent of his psychic abilities, which you should know is a huge no-no to the Vulcan hierarchy.

Fun Fact: this movie won a couple of Razzies at the 1989 awards for the following: Worst Picture, Worst Actor (Shatner), and Worst Director (also Shatner). Dr. McCoy was nominated for Worst Supporting Actor and Shatner almost won Worst Screenplay. Good thing they didn't nominate Nimoy, that would be illogical

7:30 let me assist you: the part about rowing is that we have to deal with each day's problems as they come instead of worrying about the future and don't try to go "against the flow" i.e. "stream", and "life is but a dream" part is about remembering that we are mortal, which is where "memento mori, carpe diem" philosophy comes in.

You've just missed the obvious message the movie was trying to get across, which is that God works in mysterious ways. I think....

Everyone always gets that Biblical quote incorrect... It is not God works in mysterious ways, it is God moves in mysterious ways... If you want your Bible quoted accurately, go to an atheist, LOL

Well, if Kirk has a dead brother, then Spock certainly is entitled to a half- brother. The premise of the movie is not really the problem, it is the production of it. I think with a much better director and screen - writer, like Nicholas Meyer it would have been a better movie for it .
