Really interesting video about The Motion Picture

[Candleicious Ghost]

Well this video is about the Ilia Probe but interesting nonetheless, and they talk about how uncanny Persis Khambata was in her role as the first the crewmember, and then later as the probe that took her form. I love that even on the set during filming she made people uncomfortable by her acting.

I don't know much about that guy sorry? What was wrong?

Any YouTube video that uses an AI thumbnail pic is an automatic skip for me.

I got sucked in because it was Star Trek.

Picked up that it was an AI voice right away though but unwisely thought it was worth sharing

I hate YouTube video titles like that. "THE ONE SCENE THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING!" seems to be the kind of crap they put on every YouTube video today.

To address the main contention of the video, I don't believe there were any scenes involving Ilia that made fans uncomfortable. If there were any scene in TMP that made fans uncomfortable, I'd say it was the two crew members being killed in the transporter.

That transporter scene disturbed the shit out of me when I was a kid, mainly on an audio level but also visually.

Meanwhile, OP started a thread about something pointless. Another day ending in ‘ay’.

Imagine watching it first run in the theater! Totally disturbing, they did something to the screams that was really creepy when played thru a theater sound system*.

Killing Sonak and the unidentified crewperson is what set up the 5 minute TrekPron scene in the shuttlepod.

I don't click on obvious AI thumbnails.

* imagine if that had been played in Sensurround! You would have felt their deaths. I saw Midway (1976) in Sensurround, it was a top notch system.

Well now I know what to avoid. You're right about sensurround it eas fantastic. I remember going to movies that played with that system and it was the best.

Earthquake had this and the feeling was wild. The original BSG movie had this too.

The video did have an AI thumbnail, and I think it was not the greatest video ever, but the video itself was not AI. The narrator is a real person. There are other videos on the channel where they've done live streams where you can see who the narrator is.

That's good to know. There's so much AI slop on YT that if there's an obviously AI drawn thumbnail, I don't bother watching it, 'cause odds are favorable that the whole thing is AI created. All my YT channel subs are definitely made and presented by humans.

Youtube made a very watery push a while back for human made videos but that's all gone bye bye now.
