Salt Creature? Solid A grade. Retains the icky factor and the sad look from the original.

Gorn........

That is a freaking disaster.

Yeah, seriously. I thought the Enterprise CGI-version from "In a Mirror, Darkly" was bad, but this is just abysmal.

The Salt Creature isn't bad.

In the 'Art of' book, it is identified as "This Proteus lizard creature inspired by Gorn..." not as just a Gorn

That's not as bad then.

Yeah, I don't see a Gorn in that video. Salt creature isn't bad.

The Gorn-inspired alien is at the very beginning...the reptile-like creature. If you look at the shape of the top of the head, it's very similar to the Gorn.

Those are creepy post a pic please.

4-hour eyebrows, every day. per Romulan. whew.

Can't watch the video here for some reason. Love the salt creature pic. I'm apprehensive about the Gorn. I thought that the Gorn and Tholians in Enterprise sucked. I expect better if either turns up in nu-Trek-land.

I thought the Tholian looked pretty good. The Gorn...not so much. It didn't mesh well with the live action.

 

[Corran Horn]

nice job on both, I'd say.

That doesn't make any sense at all. If they were inspired by a Rhino or a mix between a lizard and a triceratops, I would understand the idea of 'inspiration'. But I have to ask. What's the point? They're drawing inspiration from Star Trek when they're making STAR TREK!

Why shouldn't it be a Gorn? Gorns are a part of Star Trek. Don't use them as "Inspirationg", USE THEM!

It looked painful, too. (Or were they poking those into a prosthetic the person was wearing? Still, it looked painful.)

But attention to details does pay off. Walking out of the theater the first time I saw it, it was remarkable how many people were buzzing about how great the Romulans' eyebrows looked. It made the movie for them.

 

[The Castellan]

That is the worst looking "Gorn" ever.

Isn't this entire movie inspired by Star Trek (the TV series)?

It was the prosthetic...I had to watch that twice to see if my eyes were playing tricks on me. It did look like it was going into the skin.

when my dad showed me the salt creature when i was younger it scared the shit out of me

 

[startrekrcks]
