STAR TREK - Spocks Arrival (CGI Fan Recreation)

[@RobertM.-zz7mv]

God, I never tire of the Refit E. Timeless beauty. Great work and thank you!

[@TaliaIGhul]

Yep. IMO, that ship sets the standard for ship design.

[@sci-fyguy7767]

I’m building the polar lights 1/1000 version now & it’s almost complete. The Tamiya pearl white paint is beautiful & the aztec & kit decals are striking. It’s gonna be stunning in my curio cabinet next to my 1/1000 original series enterprise. Starting the 1/1000 Reliant next! 🖖🏼

[@dracopendragon6829]

The Warp Effect just isn't the same in modern Trek. To see the visual effect, and actually hear the power of the engines accelerating, just gives the impression of pure power!

[@Jon-be9yy]

Trek 1,2 3 & 6 will always be my favorites and, to me, The Motion Picture is the best! I know, I know many people say its too slow, too boring and "KHAN !" is the best Trek film EVER. Perhaps so, but in 1979 when I first saw this film, everything about it was MAGNIFICENT, everything was NEW. The Enterprise herself with those slanted warp pylons, unbelievable!! The original series and the first 6 movies will always be MY STAR TREK! A great big THANK-YOU to this company that knows how to IMPROVE a film NOT destroy it.

[@JoseyWales44s]

100% agree. When I first saw ST:TWoK I remember being somewhat disappointed because it looked so cheap in comparison to ST:TMP, didn't like the set redesigns, costumes, score or story that basically destroyed the ending of "Space Seed". I appreciate it much more now, although still not as much as ST:TMP.

[@scottmcculloch3605]

STUNNING. Absolutely wonderful work from the brilliant SFX team at HIKE ANIMATION. The refit Enterprise is glorious and you have both honoured and enhanced its beauty. I wish modern Star Trek shows or dare I say streaming movies were of this calibre.

[@Lyraa357]

I loved seeing the Enterprise refit. She got a lot of eye worship from me too. The Captain isn't the only one who loves her.

[@StarFleet_Tech1701]

I miss real Star Trek! Thanks for the memories.

[@Bobo_Plantain]

A lot of people really hated those TMP uniforms, but I really liked them. Kind of pajama-like, lol. HIKE, great animation on the Atai-class shuttle, warp sled, and, OF COURSE, The Enterprise! Fantastic warp speed animation!

[@mikekannely2286]

I upvoted you, but I hated those uniforms...LOL

[@philippealain-art]

Those who don't like these uniforms are not fans of the original series. The refit Enterprise is undeniably the best version of the Enterprise and one of the most successful spaceship designs.

[@sbk123411]

If they had used the same shirts but with black trousers, I think the uniforms would have been much better received.

[@philippealain-art]

@ Well received by who ? Those who criticize them aren't fans of the original series, they're mainly people in the general public, unaccustomed to science fiction and Star Trek, the same people who call Spock, Dr. Spock. Who gives a damn if the pants are black or not?

[@JoseyWales44s]

Yeah, I detested the ST:TWoK uniforms. The looked like something out of the Buck Rogers TV show compared to the sleek and futuristic ST:TMP uniforms.

[@RAZORBLACKRX]

I miss this ship and especially this crew

[@Techrat3D]

Wow. That was beautiful. 😃 And thank you for using the original warp sound, and not the remastered version.

[@peterrochford1333]

So many people give out about the MOTIONLESS MOVIE. I don't get it, from the 60s show to a major movie .A big jump or leap ? Again, BRILLIANT WORK THANK YOU. WARP DRIVE MAGIC 😊😊 KEEP IT UP. 🎉

[@MaxHeadroomGPT]

Absolutely _Awesome!_ Spock’s arrival is one of my all-time fav scenes. Gets me choked up with joy for some reason.

[@59phonebone]

Ah, Mr. Spock. Just as warm and fuzzy as ever.

[@eagledocf15d]

The refit looks fantastic! Well done

[@manuelmelchizedek4309]

My favorite movie

[@R_T_Ralph]

Amazing work, and very respectful of the original sfx and sounds.

[@DanielPagano-ie3xn]

That was incredible! You fully captured the beauty of the Enterprise. Especially when it was going into warp. Pure perfection!

[@0r4ng3p33l]

Awesome, you don't get enough credit I'm going to watch all the star trek movies I can while the other half is away

[@sci-fyguy7767]

I’m reading all 6 movie novelizations as well. 🖖🏼

[@jonandnao]

Excellent work team HIKE! I always enjoy watching these recreations!

[@KyleKing-vx4by]

GREAT WORK!!!👍🌹❤️🌟✨👏👏👏👏👏 Hey! I just got the Vulcan Long Range Shuttle "SURAK" from Eaglemoss Wonderful DETAIL!! 👍👍👍👍💯❤️🌹

[@JLOFlix]

EXCELLENT work, folks! Truly excellent!!

[@ptaylor5014]

Never get tired of this, great work 👍👍

[@thegooddoctor6719]

Ya got that right !!!!!

[@prxsii]

Well done! It would be great, in light of Paramount's and Star Trek's uncertain futures, if a team got together and reworked all of the space scenes with CGI - the ultimate fan edit!

[@MrWhipple42]

Fantastic. A wonderful tribute to the original model work with some nice flourishes.

[@obsideon1343]

Best version of the best warp effect of all the movies... This one and the final warp out at the end of the movie. Also the sounds

[@DMSProduktions]

'Aye, it werked Ser!' 'The shit worked LAST week!'

[@Renserin]

You know someone's recreation is good, when feels like the way those scenes should have been.

[@mikespencer9379]

Excellent job! Really captures the feel of physical models.

Great, really great!

[@ChrisRoth1972]

Your video was such gorgeous eye candy!!!!!!!!

[@TobyJWoods]

Amazing work.

[@knytrydr73]

The viewscreen showing the galaxy was an interesting artistic touch. Any reason for that decision?

[@vengeance1701]

I wish they had been a bit more explicit about why they're so surprised Spock is there. "We haven't seen or heard from you in years, Spock... I thought you really had left for good..." Something like that. Not go too much into it, but just give the audience a little more to go on.

[@xenomorphphantom8852]

At the beginning of the movie we see Spock failing his Kolinahr test,and in the sequence after this we get the full explanation. Spock sensed the cloud's mind patterns,and believes an answer for himself may await for him over there.

[@vengeance1701]

@@xenomorphphantom8852 Well, yeah, but that doesn't explain why the crew was so surprised to see Spock back. That explains why Spock came back from Spock's POV.

[@xenomorphphantom8852]

@@vengeance1701 "One to board,agent of starfleet,inactive". And then Kirk reinstates him as Science Officer. EVERYONE knew Spock went back to Vulcan,it was no secret.

Love the animation!! But it does strike me how much nicer the colour balance on the Director Edition is.

[@paulcastillo1310]

This was great 👍

[@ToddMcDurmont]

Excellent! 🖖

[@seanwolslau-holdren6731]

I always was a fan of the refitted constitution class. I always believed it did the original vessel from TOS justice.

[@paratrooper8419]

Awesome 👍

[@wcthomas65]

Just a technical question. Where is the Warp Core for the Warp Sled? Is it in the sled itself or is it decoupled when the shuttle detaches with it? There just doesn't seem like there is enough room in the sled to house a core along with any amount deuterium and anti-deuterium fuel. Nice work by the way.

[@nbsmith100]

beautifully done. if there's a nitpick to be had i'd have to say the seconds when the main viewing screen is showing the galaxy from outside the galaxy when they start going to warp was a bit jolting and didn't make a lot of sense. other than that i'd say its about perfect.

[@cliveclark680]

Still love the refit but who the hell came up with the idea of the warp throttle 😂

[@dag_gamercave]

The most beautiful version of Enterprise, period. Second place, FOR ME, would have to be the one from Kelvin timeline. I realize most die-hard fans will hate me for this, but I discovered my love for Star Trek, ironically, through the 2009 remake. That version of NCC 1701 was the first I ever saw. Ironically, it is also extremely reminiscent of the refit from the video above. Third place, 1701-E.

[@vengeance1701]

Nah, no hate. Just glad you went deeper into this franchise we all love beyond the JJ universe:)

[@philippealain-art]

We don't hate you, we just hate the stupid NuTrek turds.

[@kevinmcgovern5110]

Your work, as always is beyond superb. I wish a little reality could seep into Star Trek in general, like the Vulcan transport flip: so unnecessary. The vessel need only have ceased motion aft of the warp engine nacelles, yawed 180° and docked; the whole pitchover looked inane in 1979 and hasn’t improved with age. When TNG first aired, they made an effort to Doppler shift the D and stars passing the vessel, bluing them as they approached the camera, reddening as they departed a shot. IMH left-brained O, a vessel going to warp speed should appear to rapidly move away, shifting from normal color, reddening from a light cast, to full red to black without all the other light effects, just nacelles blazing, possibly with a spatial distortion bubble opening and collapsing like a Bird of Prey cloaking. A ship accelerating to a warp, like we see in this clip after Spock’s engine tweak would show a bubble distortion effect bulge into the shot with the Enterprise, as it matches the camera velocity enter frame black or deep violet, then quickly shifting through fading blues to normal color. Since the ship and camera POV are only slightly mismatched as it pulls ahead, no color shift is really needed but it could be kinda cool if the subspace bubble distortion of the starfield in background tapered off behind it. I myself wouldn’t do so much with the engines themselves, as a big gripe with nearly any science fiction vessel in film to moi is an abundance of GNDN Christmas lights all over (which, in my 13th summer, ruined 2001: A Space Odyssey for me, as I bought into the “realism” hype leading up to its release back in ‘68.) But if I had your equipment and talent, I’d do it myself. Problem is, even if I possessed the equipment, software, and files to do the job, skills and abilities like yours, you can’t buy, so my stuff would look like crap, regardless. Which is why we all tune into you! Thanks for sharing your amazing work!❤

[@WorksOnMyComputer]

Appareciate your lighting is more realistic, but the scenes are very dark. Hope that was the intention.

[@ajmittendorf]

I didn't see anything that was any more remarkable than in the original theatrical release, so no thumbs up from me. Besides, you didn't put an apostrophe in "Spock's Arrival" in your title.

[@lobodawg74]

Not a better looking ship in all of sci - fi .
