Star Trek: Infinite Space failed comic adaptation

As an elderly reader who has read the original comics for a long time, the author is very angry to find that the movie version has been adapted like this. (`pan´)

Many years later, I found out that this manga actually has a live-action version. At first, I started watching it with great expectations. At first, I saw a lot of restored scenes ヽ(。・ω・。)ノ I was very relieved...I soon felt different. Something is wrong (・・).

First of all, the streamlined Enterprise in the original book actually turned into a big plate with two chopsticks inexplicably inserted in the movie? (* ̄m ̄) Meaningless and random changes, I really don’t know if the brain of this film’s general design is flooded.

The selection of the leading role is a bit poor, it doesn't matter, but the normal military uniforms and space suits in the original book were actually changed into -- all kinds of autumn clothes and long pants! ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ Crazy laugh!

In addition, the image of Decker in the original book is very clearly African-American , and the movie is whitewashed into a blond white (︶︿︶) convex, which is very incorrect. What's even more shocking is the appearance of Spock. The Spock set in the Arabic style in the original book was actually replaced with the "demonized Asian" makeup that is common in Hollywood! (▼Ware▼#) This is absolutely unbearable! So creepy.

(o˘д˘)oAlthough some parts also see that the filmmakers have made some adaptations and upgrades, a large number of replacement settings is unacceptable! The whole viewing process is like watching a fan drama apart from the original.

Just pick a paragraph: In order to save money in the movie, the tentacle robot in the original book was replaced with a current that brightens the eyes of a blind dog. Really, there is only one light. Cheap is cheap, and all the terrifying and touching plot twists have been canceled. In the movie, the girl is actually lying on the gun at random (゚д゚), and then the group of straight men with cancer sat back like nothing happened (゚д゚lll). A third-rate performance like a copycat movie! ゚Д゚)))

excellent original

poor adaptation

If a small audience has not seen the original but first comes into contact with this very scumbag adaptation, they may regard it as an original (゚Д゚)ノ! Then, like many comics, it produces a bad first impression, which turns into an inherent impression, and finally seriously damages the reputation and height of the original work. So I suggest that you don't spread the movie version, just laugh and laugh when your colleagues watch it. Long live your childhood, the original is the highest! (╭ ̄3 ̄)╭♡

Star Trek: The Motion Picture quotes

  • Captain James T. Kirk: [45:09] You saved the ship.

    Commander Willard Decker: I'm aware of that, sir.

    Captain James T. Kirk: Stop competing with me, Decker!

    Commander Willard Decker: Permission to speak freely, sir?

    Captain James T. Kirk: Granted.

    Commander Willard Decker: Sir, you haven't logged a single star hour in two and a half years. That plus your unfamiliarity with the ship's redesign, in my opinion, sir, seriously jeopardizes this mission.

    Captain James T. Kirk: I trust you will nursemaid me through these difficulties, mister?

    Commander Willard Decker: Yes, sir, I'll do that.

    Captain James T. Kirk: Then I won't keep you from your duties any longer, Commander.

  • Captain James T. Kirk: Make your point, Doctor.

    Dr. McCoy: The point, Captain, is that it's you who's competing. You rammed getting this command down Starfleet's throat. You've used this emergency to get the Enterprise back.

    Captain James T. Kirk: And I intend to keep her, is that what you're saying?

    Dr. McCoy: Yes. It's an obsession. An obsession that can blind you to far more immediate and critical responsibilities. Your reaction to Decker is an example, Jim.
