  • On the way to pick up Captain Kirk and Science Officer Spock from a peace conference, U.S.S. Enterprise chief engineer Montgomery Scott in temporary command of the ship faces mounting difficulty on his way to the rendezvous - in the form of a menacing alien ship.
    In honor of the 100th Anniversary of the birth of late STAR TREK actor James Doohan, I have created this episode which prominently features the character of Lieutenant Commander Montgomery "Scotty" Scott.
    This film entitled "The Quintain" was written, directed, animated and produced by Curt Danhauser and is the third new animated STAR TREK episode featuring Captain Kirk and his crew to be produced in more than four decades. The last new official animated STAR TREK episode was produced by Filmation and aired on NBC-TV Saturday morning, October 12, 1974. Now, after more than 45 years, new episodes are being produced. These new episodes are intended to be a direct continuation of the 22-episode animated STAR TREK series produced by Filmation Associates from 1973-1974.

    This video is a brand new story, with new animation, new dialogue that reuses some elements from the Animated STAR TREK series that aired on Saturday mornings from 1974 to 1974. I created this and it is the third new animated STAR TREK episode featuring Captain Kirk and his crew to be produced in more than four decades. This is not a redub of an old show.

      the one problem I have is that according to the original writers guide for the series, saucer sep on a constitution class starship is an emergency procedure allowing the saucer to be used as a life boat. reattaching the saucer to the star drive would require an extended layover in a space dock.

    Why is Star Trek so popular? 1. The primary colours. 2. The vision of a utopian future (at least for Earth). 3. The great stories. 4. The chemistry of the characters. 5. The comfortable family type atmosphere of the Enterprise. 6. The special effects. 7. The theme of space exploration. 8. Having been a pilot Roddenberry knew how to give the show the feel of how pilots and officers talk to one another-pilot/officer protocol.

Remember they were limited to using large physical models, not 3d digital models. A saucer separation with the actual enterprise model may have put the model at risk of serious damage because it was not originally designed or that.

      Just right, I do believe a star base was required to reattach, however the animated series could have presented a saucer separation much more easily that a live action show could, & could have explained it as an upgrade. I’m surprised they didn’t think to do it. Great element in an excellent episode!

  • @deathstrike
    @deathstrike 11 дней назад

    That's what I loved about ST TAS. They had so much more freedom at the time. Aliens looked like what you would expect beings from other worlds to look like like M'Ress and Arex. And the shuttle like Archimedes. Just so much more flexibility and the ability to tell amazing stories!! This was an excellent story! The beings that the Enterprise actually met look like the legendary demons, satyrs, and devils of history. But in this series, they were perhaps an intelligent and highly advanced race who may have visited Earth in its distant past.
    And the saucer separation, that was a fantastic touch!! There was one one time in the TOS where it was almost attempted. It was when the Kalandan defense system sent the Enterprise nearly a thousand light years from an artificial planet that Captain Kirk, Sulu, McCoy, and Geologist D'Amato were surveying. After the image of Losira appeared and fatally damaged the M/AM energy converter, the Enterprise lept to an incredible Warp 14 and nearly was destroyed. At the time Spock had nearly ordered saucer separation. And that is the ONLY time in the TOS that it was considered.

    • @CHDanhauser
      @CHDanhauser  3 года назад

      Actually Saucer Separation was an idea Gene Roddenberry had in mind for the Consitution-class USS Enterprise during the early production of the original series. It was mentioned in the book "The Making of STAR TREK" which came out in 1968. He could never do it in TOS due to budget until TNG - which he did in the first episode! In no episode or authoritative book was it ever stated that reattachment after separation would be problematic or require a space station. Also, if the ship were about to be destroyed in battle and separation was the only option, I believe that qualifies as an emergency.
