I haven't seen it in a while but I thought the sphere was getting closer and closer to Voyager and started opening its hole/port then it faded to black or changed scenes but I could be wrong. Still though why take in the ship when you could destroy it and/or take shields down them beam over Borg to assimilate or beam away 7 of 9 and then destroy it. Either way the badass armor, torpedoes, and giving the Borg a little credit when they eventually adapt and punch through it was cool in my book.

Shame about the rest of the two-parter though.

Mister Facetious posted:The only good Star Trek novel is a DS9 one where Quark backs Odo in a poker tournament (Riker couldn't make it, btw). I forget why, but it was a fun read. There's another good TOS novel which ends with a pie fight.

That scene where Data force-brushes the android kid's hair with gel-slathered stiff bristle brushes always looked painful as gently caress. Data even switches to pantomiming instead of brushing halfway through because its clear he's tearing out clumps of the kids hair. Where were the legally required child actor welfare agents to insist on switching to a simple space-comb?

It's because they have to toss together some models/outfits for one episode so they aren't going to spend the several thousand dollars per uniform/model that the regular series gets.

Star Trek costuming in general is really bad outside of some uniforms. The civilian clothes in particular are always embarrassingly bad.

Someone in this thread described the DS9 out of uniform look as space peasant. Seems accurate. Quark dresses like a space hobbit tho.

I actually like the DS9/TNG Movies uniform, it looks reasonably grounded/professional with the division colours reduced to the undershirt and cuff stripes.

There's a bit in Preston Neal Jones' Return to Tomorrow (an exhaustive, 700-plus-page book about the making of TMP) in which Wise and Robert Fletcher talk openly about how they had no idea what to do with the costumes because Roddenberry's edicts kept changing -- which is part of why Kirk goes through like a half-dozen uniforms in the movie.

It always gets me that she was the only fan of Star Trek before getting her job, but once she landed the role she spent the next few years prancing around in space corsets and hating the male producers.

The Enterprise J looks like hell because it's hard to picture the scale. The guy who designed it was told to design a distant future Enterprise, and he said that the reason he used long thin nacelles was to emphasize futuristic super hard materials being used, and the reason the saucer looks so this is that it's supposed to me super massive. It was supposed to be a multi-generational ship that people would love their entire lives on. It was supposed to hold several universities and several cities within the saucer.
