Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (ships only)

[@careycarson7629]

The Klingon Battle Cruiser never moved so gracefully. That makes it look even more menacing.

[@geraldward5318]

Agreed that config of Gorkons K'Tinga looks so menacing the sounds it makes as it approaches the Enterprise are truly frightening! Wish we had of seen it in a quick battle with the enterprise as we have never truly had a Connie vs K'Tinga on screen battle!

[@RailsOfTheSouthProductions]

Justin Mosimann it’s a K’Tinga class, best way to tell is by the aft section, while K’Tinga class battle cruisers have aft torpedo tubes, D7 class do not.

[@SeanMaccaUK]

Always loved that 'Sunset over Khitomer' shot. Excelsior's departure always put me in mind of a child leaving home. Whilst Enterprise continues on into the great unknown, the 'undiscovered country' - death. Where our parents go before we do. Where no-one has gone before.

[@seanwilkinson3975]

Two of my favorite all-time Trek visuals: - Gorkon's ship performing that "roll" to train its (disruptor?) cannon on the Enterprise - The "money shot" of the Bird of Prey piercing the Enterprise's saucer with a gorgeous shot from "under" And the "Federation double-penetration" on Chang's ship is really amazing... Same with Excelsior and the Praxis shockwave...

[@pguth98]

torpedo launcher, although a disruptor was placed there for ds9...

[@stuffnobodyaskedfor9910]

the way you word "double penetration" makes it sound very inappropriate

[@MrTomcat104]

The current generation of Star Trek films may have better CGI and more detailed rendering. But what they lacked is the ability to capture the grace, elegance and heft of the starships from the films of the original series. The current Star Trek "reboot" films just turned the Enterprise into a piece of hot-rod. But that was not the way the Enterprise was meant to be. It is supposed to move with a certain speed to reflect its size. It was not supposed to be a X-wing.

[@jurassickaiju14]

As much as I like the newer films, I can't help but agree. Although I noticed that the Enterprise seemed to move with that kind of grace and heft you mentioned in Beyond.

[@twandepan]

andre jones actually enterprise is an exploration vessel, not a research vessel. But who cares.

[@hamhockbeans]

@andre jones Enterprise was a deep space starship. Strong enough to take on any ship. She was the Federation flag ship. Give her better respect.

[@bernieudo4399]

U.S.S. Enterprise 🇺🇲

[@SecondLifeTravels1]

Capital ships aren't supposed to move fast.

[@hastekulvaati9681]

The images are so clean and clear. Less is more. In modern space scene they pack the frame with so much detail and light everything so darkly that you can’t tell what is going on.

[@Akuma2000]

2:10 seeing that KT'inga battlecruiser swooping in, and "coming about" at 2:47, I remember some line from Omega Ordained's The History of: the K't'inga class S3-E33, saying it was capable of challenging a Constitution class cruiser w/out fear, and threatening an Excelsior class in a standoff situation.....man I always wanted to see this KT'inga battlecruiser take on the Refit Constitution class cruiser, closes getting to that was the Kobayashi Maru training scene in ST2-TWOK.

[@geraldward5318]

Would love to see that! K'Tinga is my favorite Klingon ship

[@olgasM3]

There's a poetic beauty in how these ships move in space when you see them without people. Still very timely despite the bird of prey and the enterprise having been conceptualized in the 60's.

[@mikhailhutchcraft7711]

Klingon BoP was from the 80s

[@pscully1969]

Great video 😀 As popular and cool as the birds of prey are, I always loved the K'Tinga battlecruisers; I wish there was more of them in the 6 original movies.

[@MaiAolei]

The first Star Trek I saw in a cinema, and thus additionally special, besides its story, fun, and of course the outstanding music.

[@chrismacias305]

Missing the one when the Bird of Prey cloaks while entering Camp Khitomer orbit. Overall, awesome compilation of the ships in the movie.

[@peterthx]

Missing the brief shot of the Enterprise at warp when they have to slip past the Klingon listening outpost and the other shot of the Enterprise in warp space before Spock and Kirk's conversation in his quarters.

[@ミスタードーナツ-k6o]

I am still blown away at how there is less than 5 minutes of actual screen time for the ships.

[@ToxicCrayon]

Missing one shot of the Enterprise at warp.

[@robertoneill1979]

God, the Enterprise is SO beautiful ❤

[@ncc1701chris]

Yes...she is.

[@Hjerte_Verke]

He knows. God gets the glory for all that man has created, because he created man.

[@charlesalmada4486]

i always loved how the enterpise a powerd up an space dock

[@laz7354]

This wonderful movie was a fitting tribute "for Gene Roddenberry".

[@thecianinator]

But he hated this movie and actively tried to stop it from getting made

[@RaikenXion]

The ships are beautifully visualized here, I luv how the old Klingon ships are still in service too, even just to escort ambassadors etc.

[@RaikenXion]

***** Indeed and I like that, I mean even in our own reality, military and especially Naval ships can be used in service for decades. Also without changing subject too much I like how Abrams seems to have done a similar thing with the starships in that other franchise hes now working on, I saw pics of a X-Wing that looked like it had been slightly upgraded.

[@RaikenXion]

***** I agree with that, It does make perfect sense the X-Wings still being in service, just slightly upgraded. I mean I remember reading something about the Naboo Starfighters had been in service a good while before they even appeared in Ep1, and even then they were used as escorts for senators etc in Ep2. So yes all thats makes perfect sense. The only thing that does not make sense to me (where Starwars) is concerned is the Idea that remnants of the Empire (Storm troopers and Tie Fighters) would still be arnd after like a good 30yrs.

[@RaikenXion]

***** Yes it did, because all the other little details of Rebelion mopping up remnants of the Empire was unimportant. I mean how many World War 2 movies have you seen that are about the allies dealing with all the rest of the Nazis out there after Hitler's demise? I can purely understand it wasnt completely over after Emperor, Vader and Death Star were taken out, although it would have seriously damaged morale throughout the Empire's forces entirely. Just like that classic phycology of how armies, gangs etc mostly always fold or disband after their leader is taken out. It would have took time for the Empire to be gone entirely, but not like 30yrs, kinda silly writing really.

[@RaikenXion]

***** Yes but the thing is, where the Empire and Galaxy is concerned in the universe of Starwars, it is extremely futuristic, so I wouldnt see it as taking them all, "100 yrs" in ur opinion, because they managed to build a whole second entire Death Star in very little time. Again my point here is that their technology is extremely advanced to build, deconstruct and disband everything entirely. For ur last part, yes it did like Prince Xizor e.g. This is why it would have been nice if they could have incorporated some of this area into new Starwars, instead of focusing heavily on Old Master Luke Skywalker, supposed last of the Jedi, wrestling with all that weight of the Darkside, as if he could not have ventured out into the Galaxy, discovering others who have connection to the force, and trained them to help re-form/re-establish the Jedi, into Jedi Academy or something like that. But then as you say, director and others dont consider the EU as cannon, just picking little tid-bits only they like, to use in that new film. Like that recent kids series Starwars Rebels, and I heard its based heavily on that.

[@RaikenXion]

***** I was just thinking that, but I like to call it more a "civil debate" on a Trek video lol. Hmm isnt the internet interesting, Im gonna go now, too much time on here, need to give my brain a rest lol. Nice talking to you btw :)

[@manuel_k791]

2:25 my two favorite star trek ship designs in one picture :D.

[@tyguy6296]

yup. k'tinga is still one of my favorite ships in any scifi, although the b'rel/k'vort will always hold the title of my favorite

[@kevinbaskin9489]

Six is my next favourite to the obvious one

[@Evohunter7]

6 is actually my fave. Coz it reminds me of all the murder and political dramas I used to watch, as well as trek. The obvious one is on another level though. Ever watched it back-to-back with Space Seed?

[@AdNauseamart]

The Klingon battle cruiser looks like it's wearing a porkpie hat

[@MrSCOTTtheSCOT]

nothing worse than starting the day with a bad case of gaseous anomalies

[@rorrante]

Nice vid, I like it ! Years ago I copied ships and effects scenes from the first 5 Trek movies onto a camcorder tape. Have you thought about putting all your "ships clips" from all the movies together into one huge "superclip" ? Thanks !

[@jurassickaiju14]

2:54-2:55 Is it just me, or do I hear the sound of a TIE Fighter engine?

[@MichaeLJPS]

I hear a little piece of the tie fighter bareley...

[@mvol5973]

You missed the bird of prey taking a sharp turn while cloaking

[@wsconsn]

Sulu: Alright now we’re given them something else to shoot at. Helmsman: Aye sir...wait what!?

[@spockvskhan4561]

This scene contradicts in STTNG about photon explosions. Both the Klingon Battle Cruiser and Enterprise are at a point blank detonation. Both ships survive. This is contrary to the wimpy writing in TNG about being to close to a photon detonation. Take that!

[@dviessdelufwaluvwa6301]

and this is the last time we saw the constitution class enterprise...

[@soap8572]

2:55 did anyone else hear a TIE fighter sound??

[@plastique45]

People forget how low budget this was. The abysmal Star Trek 5 cost 32 millions, this one cost only 23! Crazy everything they managed to do with so little.

[@ashman187]

Sulu has been cataloging gaseous anomalies , but somehow missed the giant gaseous anomaly heading towards him. lol 4:00 Gee, where do you think Kang is hiding? Right between the two Fedships in front with the correct orientation. What a joke????

[@kirishima638]

That BOP was so over used. It was in 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

[@AvengerII]

Paramount wouldn't pay for new models and would you rather the budget go into effects OR get a movie with a better-written script and good acting even if it has more modest budget? You know what happened with the JJ films and the last TNG movies! With the exception of the first Star Trek feature, NONE, and I repeat NONE of the TOS films topped $30million in budget. They kept the budgets LOW because they didn't expect a bunch of people to watch those films and they still generally turned a modest profit. The most successful film was Star Trek IV but all but Star Trek V made some money.

[@FloosWorld_AoE]

That exploding BOP can be seen as well in DS9's final

[@scifiguy26]

Agreed they also used it in numerous Star Trek television series i got tired of seeing it... the battlecruisers gets no love

[@Wraithage79]

@@FloosWorld_AoE And in Generations.They reused that shot a lot.

[@starmanovich]

So overused... and I love it.

[@anthonydesroches8897]

The Klingons didn't want peace in this movie. It was a trick they were making a new cloaking device that would give Klingons the upper hand in battles and it back fired destroying them. They had no choice and wanted the federation to get rid of stations for a battle plan.

[@jamie514]

Unfortunately missing a few warp flypasts of Enterprise - enroute to Rura Penthe and enroute to Khittomer and maybe one of Excelsior.

[@spockboy]

2:54 wow

[@ForceMaximus84]

Good: Good Plot, Good Acting, Great Use of Guest Characters/Actors, Exciting Visuals, Good Music Bad: Plot is kind of Telegraphed, Not Enough (Original Cast) Character Moments, Valeris Should Have Been Saavik

[@jordanpc1489]

Agreed on the Saavik take.

[@Ryoten27]

I wish the Enterprise had it out with that Battle Cruiser.

[@geraldward5318]

Agreed it really is the only thing missing from the TOS films! A fully energized connie refit versus a peak K'Tinga! Heavy cruiser versus battle cruiser!

[@madcap_9539]

This is missing multiple ship scenes.

[@kascnef]

Wonder how gene would react to beyond

[@dubsy1026]

Justin Fencsak badly

[@thecianinator]

It's one of the better trek movies, so he would probably hate it lol

[@danielalpi6634]

Whats the name of the first ship you see?

[@Hjerte_Verke]

USS Excelsior NCC-2000.

[@joshfish2]

I haven't seen the movie in years, but why was Kirk still commanding the Enterprise A, rather than the new B?

[@stuartcarr3156]

+Andrew Shaw Because that wasn't the Enterprise - B, it was the Excelsior. We don't see the Ent-B ship until Generations.

[@joshfish2]

***** fair enough, but they look pretty damn similar, not to mention the excelsior still looked at least slightly more advanced than the Enterprise A refit, so you'd think (with the enterprise usually being the most advanced ship in the federation fleet) that Kirk would command the Excelsior?

[@stuartcarr3156]

Personally I just felt it was just nostalgic based to keep them on it, and regarding the B - personally I thought it was just pure laziness. Like using some of the same special effects.

[@sparrowlt]

+Andrew Shaw Enterprise-B was Excelsion class .. thats why its identical to Excelsior (tought there were diferences ..same as Excelsior is slighty diferent in this movie to Search for Spock). As for Kirk in command of Ent-B.. Nostalgia and attachment factor from him to the big-E.. also Kirk screwed and pissed off a lot in his career .. i can see half the almiralty wanting to ditch him

[@Retronightvintage1993]

by star trek 5 the constitution refit type was slowly becoming outdated the enterprise a was relay just a gift for kirk and crew for saving earth in star trek 4 in fact the enterprise a was originally named USS Yorktown and renamed enterprise for kirk and crew.

[@kenp7814]

Models > CGI

[@pepperVenge]

I still can't believe they dedicated this film to Gene Roddenberry.. He hated this movie..

[@pepperVenge]

You know whats interesting?? Full impulse is half the speed of light. So 1/4 impulse is the same as 1/8th the speed of light. This means that at that speed, the Enterprise should have Shot out of those Space Doors like a Bat Out of Hell.

[@Potrimpo]

I'm saying this for the record, I love the new nacelles on the Enterprise-B, but the added impulse engines and the added engineering decks didn't work for me. I know they were installed so they wouldn't have to damage the model of the Excelsior, but they kinda ruined the ship for me.

[@geraldward5318]

Yeah that's true a clunky addition I didn't like either made the ship feel bloated and less graceful! The excelsior class is a funny ship for me beautiful at some angles but ugly at others! It's still in my top 5 though!

[@andysahs1599]

And it was reused again with the same style design the USS Lakota for ''Paradise Lost'' DS9.

[@gregoryjr9370]

perfect 😊

[@winstedwildmanresearch]

Enterprise looks too "white" and illuminated... the earlier films had the ship darker, with a dramatic contrast between the ships lights and the darker hull. Unfortunately, this Enterprise looks like a plastic model.

[@geraldward5318]

Yeah I never liked the paint job of the Enterprise A. I believe the destruction of the Enterprise refit in search for spock and subsequent issues storing the model caused the beautiful paint job it had in earlier films to be sanded away which is a real shame! Some of the lighting is nice in this movie but alot of too many white shots. I believe the new star wars movies suffer the same when showing star destroyers for example

[@Demented-Jedi]

The original paintjob is still there to this day but ILM went to town with testors Dullcote and knocked the specularity of it WAY down. Apparently they had trouble shooting it because of the pearlescent/iridescent paints kicking up the blue/greenscreen colors.
