A Brief Comment on "Star Trek" Series Movies 1-4

I have finished watching the original episode. I really like the whole cast, especially the captain and first officer. The doctor is also very cute, Su Lu is calm enough, and Sister Wu is very gorgeous. 80 episodes, just look at it and it's gone. With a little bit of foresight, I ordered the DVDs of the series 1 to 6 two weeks earlier, which were performed by the original crew, and I was not willing to watch it. For some reason, I don’t want to download it, I want to pay for it. The set is shipped and opened, the design is simple and beautiful, very satisfactory. Slowly watch one by one, and now I see the fourth part, I think it can be paused, first record it, so as not to forget.



Of course, because 2-4 is a trilogy.




The first part: "Star Trek: The MotionPicture" (Star Trek movie) on 10/10, I

went to imdb and checked the score, only to find that this movie actually scored very low. And when I watched it, I was absolutely exuberant and amazed. imdb score to fuck.



Why is it radiant?

First, the scale of production is finally worthy of the story. When watching the original drama, all the special effects that need to be supplemented by my own brain suddenly appear in front of my eyes, and it is a dream come true. It's the first time on the big screen! Don't you want to sweep away the low-quality low-cost TV series under Wan Niang? Finally exaggerated! NBC, you short-sighted and stingy stepmother, never dressed up this good boy well, now he is finally as beautiful on the inside and outside!



That's it. I don't feel that the blue energy cloud is redundant at all, let alone the lengthy period that the Enterprise set sail. There has never been such a detailed display of the Enterprise’s whole body in a TV series, so it is absolutely necessary to let the audience take a good look at the Enterprise through the eyes of the captain. In that scene, the captain is the audience, the audience is the captain, and the captain's excitement is the audience's excitement. I fully felt it, as accurate as mind-meld. The music is superb!



The props and scenery no longer look shaky, and the taste of the studio has also faded a lot. The brilliance of the bridge does not make recent science fiction films. In the TV series, the captain remembered more than 400 crew members finally appeared, and the frequent movement, the feeling of a big ship came out. The bridge seat finally has a safety device. With more beds in the medical cabin, every casualty is even more worrying. When Enterprising slowly flew over the huge alien spaceship hull, the color and tone I thought of was The Matrix made in 1999, which is magnificent and realistic, and this piece is 20 years earlier than Matrix. Gene Roddenberry let it go.



The characters no longer wear those short and narrow uniforms, but rather handsome and more formal uniforms, which of course also show the fashion trend of the 70s. The clothes were changed from one set to another, which was very eye-catching. The first mate's black travel outfit is awesome. . . .



I have omitted 2000 words of beautiful words here. In short, I am very satisfied with the big production. Even today, 35 years later, it can stand the test of time.



Second, this is an authentic science fiction film. Although it is not as good as "A Space Odyssey", it does not rely on wars, actions, or sensationalism or weirdness. It is a pure exploration film. This is very much to my liking. stuffy? Where is it stuffy? Every plot development fills me with curiosity. Although it is known in advance that the story is an expansion of the original episode TheChangeling, no matter the concept and layout, the movie version has originality. The ending is also very satisfying.



Third, the original squad ah the original squad. "I love your beauty when you were young, and I love your face that has been devastated now", not to mention the degree of devastation that looks good. The first mate is the same pattern at 30 and 60 years old, Sulu is also the same, Chekov is still young, and Uhula has a special charm; the elder of the engineer is more kind, the doctor is more handicapped, and his face It's almost hideous, but everyone's tacit understanding is there. The captain's figure is even slimmer and taller! How did he do it! Later, after reading the tidbits, I learned that he had gone through hellish diet training (I also want to diet training!!!). You can't help but admire Xia Dalei. arrogant? maybe. Publicity? absolute. pride? Not necessarily, arrogant people are usually inferior in their hearts. In addition to these adjectives, Xia is definitely a good actor who wants to be strong, aggressive, smart, insightful, and hardworking. He is just born to be in the limelight. It is hard to say whether the role of the captain made him or whether he made him the captain. Maybe for another actor, the most attractive Iron Triangle in the ST universe will not be welded together. Maybe after the original drama was cut, it has been unknown since then.



Here stop the 2000-word nympho captain's muttering to himself.



fourth. . . There is no fourth. I am already a very happy trekker.






The second part: "The Wrath of Khan" (Khan's Wrath) 10/10

This film has a very good reputation, and the quality is indeed good. The main reason is that the story is well told, compact, deep, and bold. The script, director, acting, editing, music, art, and special effects are all just right. It's just that the budget is much smaller than the previous one, and the tone and pattern are darkened, which fits the film's own temperament. The details are very detailed.



What I appreciate most is that the story faces up to the fact that the original squad has grown old and turned it into a deep and beautiful poem. This is the reason why it is so attractive. The picture of the captain wearing presbyopic glasses looks respectable but also cute. In this movie, his portrayal is the most three-dimensional. Lao Xia's performance is extremely hierarchical, without excessive performance at all. He is an excellent actor, and he only needs a director who can control him.



The famous Kobayashi Maru test appeared. Although the captain was born and died countless, he never really faced death until he lost his first officer. Unknown death, Yan knows life. Moving. (The tribute of the latest movie version is too unsuccessful, Khan is too frustrated, and BC can't save it.)



(See this one in the tidbits of the 09 ST movie: Toprepare for his role as Captain James Kirk, Chris Pine watched classic episodesand read encyclopedias about the Star Trek universe. However, his research wasrudimentary, as he wanted his performance to be original and not an imitation of William Shatner. He based his performance on Tom Cruise's Maverick and HarrisonFord's Han Solo and Indiana Jones, heroes who Pine felt possessed the archetypal hero qualities Kirk has (humour, arrogance, decisiveness).



No wonder Pine’s captain is not strong enough. Center I didn’t get it right, young man. Although the captain is funny, proud and decisive, he is also scheming, well-versed, generous and wise. Although the Pine version is still young, he hasn’t seen anything at this age. .. difficult to estimate the age of 35, Pine has been 33 years old this year, is not the same ah not the same as the year when the original captain debut).



watching the film, my family peanuts, said:?. how can they kill off MrSpock I am not buying that





first Three: "The Search for Spock" (search for the first mate) 6/10

Just as Peanut said, the first mate is over, no one agrees. So they had to find him back. Grandpa LN is a director and finds himself.



I give 6 points for this one. The reason is insufficient originality. Apart from other things, just the fragments of the previous movie have been used intact several times, and I look a little impatient. In terms of the story, there was suddenly less science fiction and more fantasy. Vulcan Soul Removal Dafa is simply too mysterious, so wouldn't it be possible for Vulcans not to die? The captain was actually willing to blow up the Enterprise. In any case, it was OOC. I think the screenwriter did not write this story well. Stealing the Enterprising account also seemed easy, and it felt like it had suddenly returned to the format of a TV series. If the TV series is like this, of course it is very good, but this is a movie, and with the background of the previous one, it looks more and more ugly.



We learned from this film: Don't kill popular characters rashly. Otherwise it is troublesome to clean up the mess.







The fourth part: "The Voyage Home" 10/10

The third part from "Khan's Fury" is a trilogy that was casually filmed. This refreshing film is a comedy. I thought Grandpa LN would not be good as a director, but after watching this movie, I admired his ability to control the rhythm of the comedy. The script is also very witty, as small as the production cost. The sci-fi temperament is strong, and the alien spacecraft that looks like Rama is fascinating. There are countless lines and scenes that make people laugh. In English, it is laughone's ass off.



In fact, I personally like this one better, although it cannot be denied that "Khan's Wrath" is more accomplished.



The theme is to protect the earth's ecology and protect biodiversity. Thirty years have passed, and we have not done well.

Good. Now you can go to the fifth part. I heard that the fifth part is not good-sum up the courage-
