What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?"

Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

I'd like to see if they can show an image of Kyle's handywork in "negating" parts of Apollo's hand "to shoot through".
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

The usual orbital scenes. It would be work to negate part of the hand, but I would want ot see them try. Not much to change in this episode, AFAIR.

Why would it be work. It's a space scene. It's going to be redone from scratch anyway (even if it's a view screen shot).
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

I wonder if the film footage of just the hand still exists? If it does, then use it again but this time clean it up and matte it better, making it really grab onto the Enterprise.

We can only hope. Whatever they do, it's bound to be better than the original. It was one of those effects that just missed but unfortunately, that also meant it missed by a mile. A hand holding the Enterprise! It was such an audacious idea. Technically, it needed to work perfectly to be believable and it didn't.

A big 'ol CGI hand?
Ahhh...why not?
 
-Redub Apollo's voice in ancient Greek

-Add a toga-clad John Belushi to some shots

-And that kewl mechanical owl from Clash of the Titans. :cool:

-Tweak the end of the show with a new shot of Apollo's hand...flipping off the Enterprise
 
FIX - big black line 'round Apollo near the end, gag !

The aforementioned hand, again gag !

The ligtning that leaves Apoolo's hand....

Let's see what else was rather DODGY in there....

* breaks out his DVD's of TOS he bought way back when *
 
I seem to remember a calendar picture of a cgi'ed Apollo hand / Enterprise.

Of course with this being a remaster, they should replace Apollo's hand altogether and put in...Starbuck's hand

thank you, I'm here all week. Try the veal.
 
Lieutenant Carolyn Palamas... Ahhhhh nothing to change there..she's just lovely..
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

Dub in Apollo yelling "Inyuk-chuk!" when he grows large.
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

The hand should be a Dalek plunger, and it should scream "WOR-SHIP-ME! WOR-SHIP-ME!"

At the end, Abslom Daak should shot the villian. :thumbsup:

Replace Palmer's face with Hillary Clinton's (Keep Star Trek TOS sexist tm).
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

I can see that being quite popular, but do not expect it.
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

Naked Apollo
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

I'm hoping they can show sweeping, 180-degree views of the new Apollo hand clutching the Enterprise and---when Spock fires phasers through it to try to disrupt the force field---they will now show the beams slicing through the faux hand.
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

A bigger, more impressive looking temple.

It's not going to happen, but that would be my choice. :vulcan:
 
Re: What Changes Would You Have For "Who Mourns for Adonais?

Or at least an aerial view of the temple from above, the way we got to see the combat arena on Vulcan in "Amok Time" from above and a distance using the new CGI.
