Why are they putting "The Cage" with the Season 2 episodes? Technically, it wasn't in *any* season...
Trek Remastered Season Two Syndication Schedule
- Thread starter Indysolo
- Start date
I anxiously await the next 40 episodes.
I just hope my local FOX and CW channels keep the show in its current weekend-afternoon slots. I don't want to have to go chasing all over the dial for it.
Interesting how the two regular season 'galactic barrier' episodes (BAON..ITITNB..) air within two weeks of each other.
Galileo Seven should be interesting...
Lets see if they jazz The Companion up
Lets see if they keep the one beauty shot of the ENT firing phasers (in AF), as seen from behind and port.
Lets also see what they do with the planet backdrops of EW and Man Trap
The Klingon cruisers in Day of the Dove and Elaan
The matte of Dagger of the Mind - do they follow tradition and adopt some of the Delta Vega amenities?
The passage close to the sun in Operation: Annihilate! Also maybe show some of the satellites!
The 'battle' with the Vampire cloud of Obsession
Mudd's cargo ship in the asteroid belt
The matte for Requiem for Methuselah
Cloud Minders should be fun to see
And lets see what the can do to Godzilla..I meant Vaal.. in The Apple
But definitely Ultimate Computer...

Here's hoping Okuda and his people make some new CGI "ape men" for Taurus II in the Galileo episode. Edit out the close ups of the tall stunt guys in shaggy fur suits(they don't work...they never have)and digitally insert some new CGI primates over top of the shuttlecraft and Lt. Gaetano.
One interesting thing about the TOS-R schedule is that while most episodes don't get a rerun (since there are 40 new episodes and only 12 repeats each season), The Doomsday Machine & Space Seed get repeated twice. I guess the TOS-R team really likes the work they have done on those 2 episodes.

I know I do. :thumbsup: Great revamps there. Killer effects for the most part.

Wouldn't that be a bit expensive?
2/9/08 - "The Ultimate Computer" - that's the one I'm waiting for.
Maybe not. The CGI Gorn from the Mirror Universe episodes of ENTERPRISE were done on a limited budget, and that was during a Season 4 when the filming budget had already been trimmed by UPN and Paramount.

True. Nobody's defending that "velocirap-Gorn."
Still...proof you can do something moderately three-dimensional and realistic on a limited CGI budget and schedule. Maybe Okuda changed the ape men on Taurus II. Maybe he didn't. Could be they were too much trouble to deal with and he just focused on the space shots of the shuttle and the Enterprise.

wouldn't the giant ape men scenes be too expensive, given the space scenes likely to be modified?

I'm always amazed that they made a killer Tholian, but screwed up royally with the Gorn.
The only time that thing looked like a classic TOS Gorn was when it was standing upright...facing the camera...in the shadows of the ceiling directly above Mirror Archer. It looked like the classic "rubber suit" Gorn at that one brief moment. But when it jumped down it looked more like a cheesy CGI raptor from that goofy LOST WORLD syndicated show.
Probably. So many scenes in this episode show the Enterprise or the Galileo in space that I doubt Okuda and his team will do much to the ape creatures on the surface. I'd like them to. Because those shaggy old rug costumes just look awful. But it's all about time and budget...and priorities.
