Star Trek: The Motion Picture - The Enterprise time loop anomaly

Due to a temporal anomaly, Admiral Kirk and Mr. Scott turn around the USS Enterprise 37 times.
From Star :Trek The Motion Picture (1979)
This video is not monetized (by me). I do not own Star Trek.

[@calatv1050]

this video is just a silly homage to Star Trek TMP I did one week-end. It is NOT the full film, it NEVER was, it NEVER will be. There is no link to the full film (except maybe the one from your KZbin suggestion). There is not a trap for a malicious website. Just relax and enjoy the video :) And thank for all the thumbs-up !

[@Eazy-ERyder]

Sounds great!

[@scott6504]

Thank you for your time and work. I enjoyed this.

[@islamispagan2137]

Lol I fell asleep at the beginning woke up at the end and it looked like the beginning and I was like wtf lolol

[@eliotanders3488]

Just good old fashioned spaceship p0rn. Love it! :-)

[@maryjane9842]

SO WHO IS THE JACKASS THAT DID THIS? MORONS, IT TAKES MORONS, WITH WAYYYY TOOOO MUCH TIME ON THEIR HANDS! WOW, GET A LIFE DUDE!!!!

[@mikemorrison7774]

The part where they both smile and laugh... It's like Scotty going "ok, just one more pass".... for two hours

[@deeromesburg7720]

I was 11 when this came to the theater. My parents raised me on TOS. We were so thrilled to see it on the big screen! Still the most beautiful ship EVER.

[@twt3716]

I wish your parents were my parents. I wish we were brother and sister. We could chat for hours. Pen pals ?

[@AzTrailRider57]

.... Yeah, what she said....

[@john-martin]

I got 30 minutes in and realized this is on a loop

[@precinct1baltimorecountyre588]

No it was how long the man on man pod ride went

[@royalanania3306]

Never tired of watching Star Trek.Everrrr!!!!!!!

[@thomascattington1660]

I really enjoyed this when it came out. First thing I ever bought on VHS tape. We devoured all the magazines and paperbacks and the show was in reruns every Saturday and Sunday. Critics can pick apart the effects and whatever they want but this had the real spirit of going baldly where no one had ever gone before. 😁

[@trevormcwilliams7578]

I find it funny that many truly do not understand (or perhaps appreciate) this piece of the movie. Gene Roddenberry gave this to the fans as a gift. The Enterprise was always a main character. The name of this music track is The Enterprise. Kirk returned to HIS ship and she to him.

[@Atxurra]

Also it serves as a contrast between the enterprise and V'Ger. The enterprise is monumental when compared to 2 human beings and a shuttlecraft.... then V'Ger is monumental in comparison to the enterprise.

[@RMcKnightMD]

The Enterprise story really began with that great WW2 AIRCRAFT CARRIER. ....

[@paulbickley658]

Don't feel bad, I do not understand why anybody 😕 would loop this just to get followers to like it...

[@lorettahoffman6190]

Very cool Mr. McWilliams. The Enterprise was always a main character. You must have been in the service. Trekkies onward!

[@jenniferbeyer6412]

She is the most Beautiful.

[@DJWHITE_]

We live in times where things can’t breathe. They don’t know the long game or what this meant. I hope this level of fan service can come back again .

[@lonster3000]

People like to complain about this scene but for those of us who waited almost 10 years to see the return of Star Trek I couldn’t get enough of the new and improved Enterprise. It’s a perfect introduction to what is still the ultimate version of NCC-1701.

[@joesteidl8134]

This is exactly how I felt about it at the time, and for that matter, now

[@snakeplisskin2570]

I vote for the D, but I grew up on it. But yes, an excellent scene.

[@NotDuncan]

@@snakeplisskin2570 I’ll always take the D over the A

[@aliensoup2420]

I most appreciated the redesign of the nacelles, and their more swept-back, streamlined appearance.

[@user-cf7pe3qg1c]

This piece, by the brilliant Jerry Goldsmith, was slowed down from the upbeat version is a true masterpiece! Mozart himself would be very impressed! Well done loop!

[@deborrahshiffer9582]

Out of all the movies of Star Trek this is still my favorite, thanks bunches for sharing this totally awesome movie.

[@markprince8437]

I can watch this all day. Thanks!!

[@robertthomas5736]

Thank You for Posting This Awesome Video, Happy Star Trek Day, Star Trek 55th Anniversary Wednesday September 8th,2021

[@Bill_Me]

Thank you for this ‘Silly’Homage to ST~TMP🙏. It transports my Psyche back to a Time when Life was still unfolding for me and I had options. Star Trek shaped my life , gave me inspiration to Live and appreciate my Life.

[@joejoe9533]

This first installment of the Star Trek movies was actually my favorite...I've had arguments with friends, because they couldn't understand the plot, and found the movie boring. The reason? Because this movie doesn't have constant fighting and killing scenes in it....I thought the plot was ingenious! ...For those that don't understand the plot...VGER is the Voyager Satellite that we sent into outer space. VGER entered a planetary system that was of machine/computer intelligence. VGER learned and became more sophisticated etc...Eventually, VGER set out to find its creator...Which of course, happened to be human, a carbon life form....It amazes me how many adults I've met, that do not understand the plot of this movie lol Again, I thought the plot was, as Mr. Spock would say....FASCINATING

[@Shango]

I agree with you. I think the movie captured the spirit of Star Trek in the way that it presented a mysterious threat and the Enterprise crew had to figure it out. But I personally wish they kept Star Trek as a TV series. When Star Wars came out, Paramount wanted their own cash cow so they abandoned Star Trek: Phase II. I'd rather have the TV series.

[@bleirdo_dude]

I am Nomad.

[@prasanjitsaha-eh8et]

It indeed was an ingenious plot. One ought to sit down and enjoy this wonderful piece of work...

[@aartudituu8215]

Agreed. In my humble opinion, Star Trek TMP is THE BEST sci-fi pic OF ALL TIME; And, one of the best pictures of all time from any genre! A MASTERPIECE! I seriously doubt it will ever be bested. Anyone that doesn't get this movie just doesn't get sci-fi.

[@josephwonderless1258]

Voyage wasn't really a satellite, but it was considered a deep space probe to explore our solar system and it keep going to interstellar space. I was in my early 30's when it was launched in 1977. Just for information : Voyager 1. NASA's Voyager 1 was launched after Voyager 2, but because of a faster route, it exited the asteroid belt earlier than its twin, having overtaken Voyager 2 on Dec. 15, 1977. It began its Jovian imaging mission in April 1978 when it was about 165 million miles (265 million kilometers) from the planet.

[@nikolaevkatesla3823]

Dude I saw the time loop like 4 times before I realised that it wasnt the full mouvie

[@coreyknudsen6706]

😆 Ditto

[@calj01]

Love this. I think the Enterprise is a beautiful ship and the orchestra music makes the whole scene

[@excelsciors]

Sadly, most of the original crew has passed on. They were true pioneers with the original series in the early sixties! RIP.

[@Isawwhatyoudid]

cigarettes

[@seandooley1046]

The series came out in the 50's but it got cancelled then they relaunched it in 1967, SiFi was not popular untill the moon landings which lead to the success of star Trek the twilight zone etc

[@Isawwhatyoudid]

@@seandooley1046 I can't find ANYTHING online that says Star Trek first came out in the 50s, in fact many articles cite the exact date of Rodenberry's first draft of Star Trek as March 11 1964.

[@seandooley1046]

Been a star Trek fan since 1972 and I used to collect as well, went to a convection way back 1979 we're I learned about the first cancellation

[@oliviajohnjohnolivia8142]

The cast is now in space.

[@niamhryan9677]

I had forgotten how beautiful the music is.

Man I looped this and I can’t stop it

I can't believe the whole movie is on KZbin! now!!!!

[@johnhook2961]

I'm going to watch this movie again!!!!!

[@kathyvarela2215]

This one of my favorite movies. I like the Sound Trek music

I love the original Star Trek movies. 🥰

[@sirturd4966]

Not even 10 minutes in and it's already better than Star Trek Discovery and Picard ! 😜

[@JonathanWilcox71]

Awesome!

[@strangelyfamiliar1729]

The dialogue is out of this world!

[@gerald4027]

I can't wait for the remake.

[@bruthamann5697]

I remember how excited I was to finally see the Enterprise refit!!! There was no internet so all we had was Starlog. 😎 I STILL get chills watching this.

[@precinct1baltimorecountyre588]

I used to crank out 1 everytime it came on uhf tv. Oooooooóg oooooooh ooóoooo aaaaaa

[@sarasarah1810]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!! my favourite part of the film and the musical score as well...great loop!😊

[@jenniferbeyer6412]

I'll say the same thing as I always do. This movie is the best of the movies. It captures the essence of what the series did. A beautiful ship, great crew, awesome story, spectacular music, and a bit of humor. I watch it at least once a month. It's never boring. Always get a feeling of awe when we finally see the Enterprise headon in all her glory. The Enterprise is an important and necessary character, with any other ship it wouldn't be Star Trek. The Refit Enterprise is the best of all the ships called Enterprise. Others maybe larger and more powerful but this ship always moves me to my soul. I wonder what the ships will look like when humans reach the time when this takes place. I hope the ships then would be like they are in Star Trek. But when the time comes, maybe the builders would look up the blue prints that have been written now. Maybe it's wishful thinking. Hopefully our great, great, of great, or more greats, grandchildren will build ships similar the this ship. Live Long And Prosper. And Peace and Long Life. Always remember the name ENTERPRISE.

[@tahu1349]

Alot better than the stuff put out now

Complimenti per la varietà scenografica.

I Have The Director's Cut of This Movie, it Was A Gift from a Friend

[@tapthatt2012]

The only time Kirk regrets giving Scotty "more time." Love this! Great music.

[@precinct1baltimorecountyre588]

I always thought scoty and Kirk were lovers too. The way they held each other in trouble with tribbles. I took as the tribbles reproduced in step with the love scenes between Kirk and Mr scott

[@enterprisepets]

I thought it was the movie and I spent 10 whole minutes watching the loop HAHAHAH, but it is beautiful

[@alicesonluther1092]

I put it on while I was doing something else at the same time To right a time loop I listened to this for about an hour thinking I don’t remember this part being so long Finally I realised

[@gfdrthjigvtyhnhyg]

legend has it their skeletons have yet to dock.

[@WKE066]

Thank you for posting this!!! I was hoping someone had this up.

[@snrbusanalyst]

Still get a smile and chills when I see this and that incredible musical score. Just like I did back in 1979

[@therockabillie]

Great! 👍

[@ronwade5433]

This was AWESOME in Theaters! I was younger too.

[@cylon1983]

I was lucky enough to see this when it first came out. Growing up watching Star Trek, I truly appreciated this scene. One of my favorite scenes in the movie. The other would be the opening scene with the Klingons.

[@maytagmark2171]

I was there too to see it for the first time in Theater in 79. For some one who grew up on Star Trek (I'm a 63 model) Seeing the Enterprise in these scenes for the first time was just Bone Tingling! Almost a religious experience. It was a long haul since the last Trek episode and this movie. It was almost like color came back to the world.

[@ardivachambers6927]

Interesting!

[@captainkirk4519]

Bizarrely enough I feel the first film came closet to the original series and also the epic scope you can achieve in cinema.

[@johnhook2961]

Best movie ever!!!!! A classic!!!

[@mitchellgiffard1978]

Live long & prosperous....

[@jtkirkfan2002]

Oh crap! There’s V’Ger! Maybe we should have shortened this inspection tour a little!

[@cellytron]

Thank you! This is my favorite part of the movie and I don't know what people have against it.

[@ahmarsaeed6085]

My favorite part of the film. Brilliantly moving scene. Second would be when they successfully go to warp after Spock's arrival, and Kirk gives that little wink to Chekov.

[@denniswalsh8476]

In at least one cut to Kirk he should have had a little tear in his eyes.

[@78.BANDIT]

No matter how many times I see. I still get goosebumps. And the music score works perfectly.

[@leonbogon148]

Non Stop action and excitement!!!!

[@kaltenstein7718]

doctor: you got one hour to live me: but... god: its okay man

[@steeledriver724]

A true comment on human nature. Both the wonderful thought out plan of film adaptation and then the howling depths of our human bretheren unable to comprehend the boundless wonders of what can be done and what will be done and the mindless goons who will click on anything *grin*. Now have another toke and find something else to click on. I loved it.

[@TenchiJeff]

This really is the best version of the first movie, and fits into canon much more smoothly than the original.

[@pattyjay9999]

This is cool do Leaving Space Dock😍

[@kevintraynor4508]

They are all so young in this first movie and don't look any older than when the series ended

[@JGG1701]

This is the best part of the whole movie. The music is perfect. As a matter of fact this is my favorite of all TOS movies. Such great memories. My brother and I share the enthusiasm of this era of Star Trek. I truly miss those times. I wish they could recapture this lightning in a bottle just one more time.

[@GaryCameron]

I lined up at the local mall cinema for 3 hours the day that film came out.

[@SchneeflockeMonsoon]

So, I grew up on Star Trek, quite literally. I’m a really young member of the fandom, Enterprise was coming out when I was born, so the first Star Trek I ever saw come out that I could remember was 2009, and I… was a dumb kid who thought it was flashy and cool. But even then, I only wanted to go see it because my dad had let me watch reruns with him. I knew about Picard, Data, Spock, and Geordi before I knew about Clifford. My dad finally got the collectors’ editions of the movies, got me through most of TNG, and we honestly just skipped this movie and TOS. So you can guess that for a kid who loves nothing more than to build models, which ships more often than any other decorated my floor and my dresser. So going back to the beginning and rewatching from ground up and truly getting to experience all of Trek? It’s a special thing, and I can finally, truly appreciate this welcome back to the ship of Dreams.

[@cupidstunt22]

I liked the bit with the ship

[@markgordon5387]

I love Star Trek and the original cast.

When I first saw the original movie, it really felt like the scene showing off the Enterprise actually took this long. Well done, even if others didn’t catch the joke.

After the first 15 minutes i was good, i fell like i know the ENTERPRISE as well as CAPTAIN KIRK, i was hoping the strapped on the gravity boots, now im ready to meet the crew and go on an ADVENTURE!!!! Don't get it twisted i STILL LOVE STAR TREK, but i was READY to test the WARP ENGINES. Who can RELATE?

[@QuantumReality]

The plot for the Star Trek: The Motion Picture is based for Star Trek: The Changeling

[@glennspringthorpe6227]

Where he is confused as Jackson Royce-Kirk. Fab episode where Uhura has her mind erased. The only film I can remember where Kirk issues a Captains Log just before they enter warp spred for the first time.

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

There were a few changes I liked about the Directors cut of Star Trek the Motion Picture like the shuttle pod's approach to the Enterprise from the front and you can see the Enterprise' reflection in the window as Kirk is looking at the ship smiling the next one is when the Enterprise is moving away from Earth and the picture of Earth on the viewscreen is better than it was in the original version and another scene was after Spock came on board and helped fix the problems they had with the warp engines as Kirk and McCoy are waiting for him in the officers lounge and you can see the warp engines outside the window which is a lot better then in the original as there was nothing outside but the one thing I wish they could've fixed in the Director's cut was the arm thing attached to the starboard side of the secondary hull even though they blurred it out you can still see the damn thing just like in the original version of the film.

[@alegnalowe3679]

Captain kirk will live forever as my favorite of them all. When Leonard nimoy died i balled like a baby! May the original crew live long and prosper!!!!

[@lisavanallenallen3222]

ITS ABOUT TIME I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST THIS MOVIE the shows would be nice too
