Random Curry Puff nah men, more like 22 years. Since The Wrath of Khan takes place in the year 2285.. or probably 15 years, since Captain Morgan Bateson of the USS Bozeman say that they just leave drydock with the TWOK uniforms in the year 2278..
That was really nostalgic seeing that picture of the original cast together in that picture on the bridge set of the Constitution Refit Class U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-A and from the looks of the picture it was from Star Trek 5:The Final Frontier based on how Uhura looked in the picture.
I always have been an always shall be your friend live long and prosper I heard that when. I saw this I said it is illogical to cry to myself in the theater
It's even more poignant when you realize that Spock had to have had that photo on him when he went back in time. Basically, he carried that with him wherever he went.
OMG that never occurred to me! I mean you get that sad feeling from Spock in TNG, knowing that apart from Bones (at the time), he was the only other one left from the Original Enterprise. He deeply missed all of them, most of all Kirk!
@@lukegauci1159 Bones was still alive at the time of the TNG pilot but probably not much longer than that. So by the time that Spock was on TNG he was the last TOS still alive.
@@joemckim1183 read properly! I said ‘apart from Bones!’ Ik he was still alive! And there is no evidence to show that he died after ‘encounter at far-point’.
@@joemckim1183 actually Dr Leonard "Bones" McCoy lived past Kirk dying on Veridian 3. Kirk was killed in 2371, after going missing and being declared dead in 2293 (was really pulled into the Nexus). After the Borg and Romulans stole Kirk's body in an attempt to create a sleeper agent and Kirk was captured, Dr. Leonard McCoy arrived to assist Dr. Bashir in removing the Borg implants. Far point was in 2364, so McCoy would be 144 when assisting Dr. Bashir. It's also worth noting that in this novel (Star Trek: The Return) it is discovered that Spock can't be assimilated by the Borg because technically his mind is already part of the collective because of his mind meld with V'ger.
One thing I'm so grateful about towards the newest Star Trek films is that they don't try to erase the original series or pretend it didn't happen. They acknowledge its existence, how important it is, and, in moments like this, honors it. And even though I grew up with The Next Generation, I still cried when this picture came up. What a beautiful scene.
the difference between St and SW. With this trilogy they sort of cheated by creating a new time line, but then again time line differences have been a ST thing. Only with this they honored the originals where Disney just shat on everything that was OG star wars.
@@fastdak25 Agreed. The thing is, they created a new timeline while still preserving and respecting the prime timeline. They didn't wipe it out, the acknowledged it as part of Spock Prime's history.
I know this scene was meant as an homage to the original cast and the world that they created together, but from another perspective, I feel like original Spock planned for this too. As he was sorting through his things before his death, he decided to leave this token to the current Spock because he knew that the current Spock would definitely consider leaving Starfleet, and he knew that seeing this picture would solidify his decision to stay because his home is not Vulcan but the friends that he has made in the journey beyond space.
I teared up when the image came up on the screen. I thought it was a nice nod to the original cast, especially since we've lost Jimmy, Dee and Leonard.
It was more than just a nice nod... this left no doubt Nimoy's Spock in Abrams' Trek really IS the same Spock we knew from Roddenberry's Trek. Whats more sad: We (the viewer) know now that Nimoy's Spock had no hope of going back to his real timeline.
MoniqueFromPlymouth ...Good point, but it was also nice that old Spock could revisit the past, even if it wasn't his timeline. I would love to go back in time and give my younger self some advice. I made some bad choices....lol.
Dexter White: I am fully aware of that fact, thanks. I grew up with re-runs of TOS, the original 6 movies, TNG and DS9. That wasn't what my post was about. Post your anti-new Trek shit on your own thread. Thanks.
All the people in the photo were probably already dead in his timeline, so maybe it wasn't so bad that he got to return to see them, assuming there weren't other more important people in his life.
All but possibly two, McCoy was known to be alive at the start of TNG (maybe he could have passed away over the course of TNG thru Nemesis though), and of course, Scotty was rescued from the Jenolen and had many more years left in him...
Except it.doesnt really tie in as this.all takes place in an alternate timeline from the true star trek. I find it hard to get invested in these movies..also they are very 'fast & furious like' for obvious reasons.
Philip Goodson I still think Star Trek (2009) had a good idea with making the younger cast canonically the original characters while offering a reason why we were gonna get different stories (time manipulation, alternate timeline.) I just wish the execution had been better.
I popped huge with that. It was a wonderful nod to the old canon. To this Spock, it may have made him had an inkling that somehow Spock Prime’s Enterprise crew were together through thick and thin.
This proves spock never let go of his emotions. Even a hundred years later, even when there was a chance he'd come back, he kept that picture with him.
I think the inclusion of the TOS theme in the background was a perfect reminder of Spock's devotion to his friends, and how it prevents Kelvin Spock from leaving Starfleet.
God it really looks like Quinto's about to tear up himself. Plus, how great was it to see the TOS movie uniforms some 22+ years later on the big screen?
@@TheWPhilosopher Oh, more than appropriate. He was probably the best person on set to do it, for more reasons than just because it was the role. This was the closest thing the movie could do to a eulogy and I'm glad they did it. It's an important display of respecting our elders, the ones who paved the way for us the way Nimoy paved the way for Quinto and both became friends because of it.
that wasn't full acting, he was genuinly feeling it, he and Nimoy had gotten close during their first time together, obviously becoming friends, so you can imagine how he must have felt when he heard
I was originally against this movie as I considered it to pointless to make the movie so soon after Leonard Nimoy's death and that it would be disrespectful to his memory as his character was pivotal in this trilogy. However, this scene convinced me otherwise. Today I admit how wrong I was and have outmost respect for filmakers for putting this amazing dedication to not just Nimoy, but also the entire original crew. Sadly, out of seven members of the original crew, three are not among us anymore - DeForest Kelly, James Doohan and Leonard Nimoy.
Nichele Nichols has had two or three major strokes, its a wonder she hasn't passed. Koenig is the youngest of the bunch, Takei lives healthy, and Shatner... well, something keeps that man going.
We all make mistakes, its part of our lives, life is a companion that goes with us on our journey and want us to cherish every moment, it'll never come again, after all we're only mortals.
I think one of the best take aways from this comment is that they admitted to changing their mind, we all to know well people will fight to the death a point they know is wrong just to save face.
I love this scene for what it tells us about Ambassador Spock. He came to this timeline by accident on the Jellyfish, which means that even though he had no idea what would happen when he went to try and save Romulus, he took this photo with him regardless. Some might say it's far-fetched, but I like to think it shows us how sentimental Spock was about these people who had a huge impact on his life.
Those people brought him back from the dead literally. I think he would say, the debt I owe to my friends is so large I doubt I’ll ever be able to thank them properly.
And then there were three…🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭 With the illustrious Nichelle Nichols gone, we are only left with our favorite helmsman, navigator, and captain. Koenig, Takei, and Shatner are the final members of the old guard, and I can’t help but feel very sad. Rest in piece, Commander Uhura. You lived long and indeed prospered. 🖖
This moment stirred emotions in me I've never felt before. I think it was because I was proud that the makers of this film were brave enough to make such a genuine nod to the original cast. My eyes were watery.
I grew up on The Original Series it was and always will be the BEST those who claim otherwise I always tell them "you can say what you want about The Original Series but WITHOUT it there would be NO Next Generation,Deep Space Nine, Voyager OR Enterprise Series so just keep that in mind"
i saw it some days ago and man, that was a fun movie and that picture was moving. the classic 7. you can't beat that team while the people who played the current crew are awesome.
0:32 - That photo, with that trill of Classic Trek music, brought a tear to my eye. Such sweet memories, of so many great adventures. Gone but never forgotten, RIP Leonard, James, DeForest, and Nichelle.
I'd actually argue that the ST actually respected the OT too much, not really daring to do anything too new. The prequel trilogy on the other hand...man, it's actually somewhat insulting IMO.
@@Barri2410 No, I mean the prequels. Like, I get some of what they're going for, but the execution is so all over the place that any intended message becomes muddled, and I don't even find the movies particularly entertaining anymore. EDIT And I know George Lucan had creative control over both the PT and the OT but they simply do not meld well in my eyes. I can elaborate if you want to.
This for me was the saddest thing I have ever seen so powerful and everlasting. I was brought up with the original series and it felt personal like losing a great friend
This was such a great part of the movie, Spock tells McCoy that he was considering leaving Starfleet and assuming Prime Spock's responsibility in helping his race rebuild. Saying that he wanted to live as he did, thinking that was the time his older counterpart felt was most important to him. But here he finds this photo and both he and the audience are shown that in the long and eventful life Spock lived, the best and most cherished years of it all was serving with his shipmates in Starfleet and so young Spock stays not only to fulfill what he said he wanted to do to honor old Spock's memory, but because his time with them is too something he cherishes.
I honestly teared up at this moment. Seeing the old cast on the bridge of the Enterprise-A on the big screen just...it was a perfect moment. And a beautiful way to honor Trek's 50th anniversary, making sure they were all there.
Makes sense the Kir, Shira is like a bible to a Vulcan. They live their lives by its teachings. The robes he wore on Romulus make sense as he wanted to remember all he had seen and done in his ultimate bid to unify both peoples Family photo is not unusual either. When I flew transport aircraft or tankers near air battles my photo always reminded me to come home whatever the cost. I always made it back
I didn't fully get the impact of this moment till my 3rd viewing. 1st was in theaters, when I watched after rewatching the 1st 2 films. Sad yes but I wasn't blubbering. Time 2, similar to the first but with anticipation for the moment. Time 3, I was at home after doing my 50 year marathon....going by release date. Seeing everything prime Spock had been through, all those years only to end up where he did, with only one memento. A picture of his crew, together again. And to have KT Spock look at it, probably recognizing his crew.....it's heartbreaking
When I looked at this scene, I presume KT Spock did recognize who's who in the photo, even though they're not the exact faces he's accustomed to seeing because thats a different universe. And it provided the hint that in his universe, Spock and the Enterprise crew will be together for many years to come...
@@MoniqueFromPlymouth possibly. The other way to look at it is the ambassador asked to meld with his younger self after Kahn incident to gain insight into the timeline changes.
bemasaberwyn55 | I doubt they both mind-melded off-screen... remember in their face-to-face encounter that Nimoy's Spock clearly stated he will not interfere and allow the alternate timeline and general history to play out. Yes, I know he gave KT Spock the "spoiler" that Khan eventually lost and the price was high, but Nimoy's Spock did not give away too much as Kahn was very difficult to beat in either universe.
@@MoniqueFromPlymouth true. If memory serves though, his reasoning was to keep the 5 year mission mostly in tact. I feel the incident with Kahn may have changed his mind(conjecture of course)
bemasaberwyn55 | Regardless, Nimoy's Spock did not live very long in the alternate timeline to assist this Enterprise crew... which is heartbreaking as you said in your first post. As a viewer, I was half-hoping that somehow, someway he could return to his real timeline - like he always did in his onscreen Trek adventures where he and Kirk time travels, but it was not to be this time. With Nimoy's death, that made it hopeless for Roddenberry's Spock, which for me is sad in thats how it ends for his character.
Right now I’m thinking of the trial in Star Trek 4. Spock joins the crew before the Federation President: “Captain Spock, you do not stand accused.” “I stand with my shipmates.”
It's poignant and reminder of the warmth and friendship the crew and real life cast. The original crew and cast grew old along with us. This new crew is still in their prime and yet to complete their 5 year mission. There isn't the same feeling of family.
Is it weird that I had a feeling it was going to be that exact photo? I had seen it years prior in a movie magazine, and the image stuck with me ever since. Glad to see that it made it into the movie!
It must've been strange for Spock seeing a photo of Spock Prime and his Enterprise shipmates on the bridge of the Enterprise-A from the alternate timeline.
It was a very sad day when I heard Leonard Nimoy had passed away. I grew up watching the original Star Trek series and Movies because my parents loved them and then I became a huge Start Trek TNG fan. I had the honor of meeting Leonard Nimoy at a book signing ages ago for his book I am Spock and he was the most gracious, humble, and sincerely genuine, and nicest celebrity I have ever met. I was a young girl no more than 16 or 17 years old geeking out over meeting Spock and he was just so nice it surprised me. He embraced the fact that he would always be most well known for his character of Spock and did not become jaded by it as so many celebrities do. He was a truly amazing human being.
The red uniforms were perfect for their era, and are (In my opinion) best uniforms with the First Contact uniforms coming in second. I also loved the Star Fleet Badges from the Original Series movies the most.
Hurts even more now that we've lost Nichelle. I had the pleasure of meeting her several times, including her last tour in 2019. And now only three remain.
What's this? A reboot of a beloved classic that shows genuine love and respect towards said classic, instead of mocking it and the fans for not liking this new version?!
This touching moment is for us (mostly Baby Boomers) who were there when the original series began. The original cast was the heart and soul of Star Trek!
Au moment au la photo c’est éclairé mes yeux ce sont remplis de larmes cette scène est terrible, extraordinaire pour tout les fans Revoir tout l’équipage original en uniforme rouge de ( Star Trek les films) est d’ une grande émotion . Trois personnes ne sont plus parmi nous, de Forest Kelly, james doohan et Leonard Nimoy. Et le visage de zaqary quinto est magnifique, lui aussi se montre dévasté par la mort de Léonard Nimoy. Je trouve que c’est une très bel hommage, aux hommes et femmes qui ont créé et jouaient Star Trek. Merci pour ce post
You know what would have been funny if the picture of the cast on the bridge of the Enterprise A if that picture was a picture taken on the bridge of the T.O.S. Enterprise pre-refit.
This scene made me cry and was the only scene in the entire Abramsverse trilogy that moved me towards any emotion aside from unbridled anger and manic depression, and the only reason it made me do so was the stark contrast between how awful the Abramsverse is and how amazing even one photo for Star Trek V, which I used to consider the worst of Star Trek, is.
Out of curiosity, what is so bad about the new movies? Sure the story isn’t super out there, but they’re enjoyable none the less. Personally, even though it lacked the striking originality of the the original series and the subsequent spin-offs, these movies were genuinely entertaining and refreshing to see in a time where high effort sci fi is exceedingly rare.
@@partiallyslicedbread369 I think just explaining the plot of any of them pretty much says it all, like for example: could you summarise the plot of 'Star Trek' (2009)? (I realise you said the story wasn't super, but this is crux of it in my view, although I also do not like the cinematography style either)
Nicholas Kent I mean, I see it as this, I enjoyed the movies enough to recommend them, not to Star Trek fans or sci fi fans per say, but just the average person. I think that I watched the new Star Trek films for the stunning visual effects, the acting, and the appeal of seeing Star Trek modernized. And the plot of the 2009 movie is a bit too lengthy to summarize effectively.
In Wrath of Khan Spock is revived by a combination of the Genesis effect and his Vulcan physiology and mental abilities. In Into Darkness Kirk was revived by Khan's magic blood. Just one example of why the reboot movies suck.
@@partiallyslicedbread369Due to the fact that they changed the timeline to the point where it wasn’t really the OG crew (them with different backstories based on the time travel way to bring Spock Prime into the story) is why it is “bad” to some fans. The Kelvin version might end up being the best in their respective timeline regardless of how things changed before they even met because of Nero and Spock Prime unintentionally being brought back in time.
Beyond was my favourite of the new movies.. it connected the NX01-era Trek into the new series and also paid proper tribute to the old cast. Nicely done.
it's interesting to think, everything in that box is what he had with him when Spock went to the Kelvin timeline, so that picture was quite important to him
@@re1010 As far as he knew, anyway. It's not known if McCoy survived to that point in the TNG era, but it is likely that Scotty did live to that time, as he was stuck in the Dyson Sphere for almost 80 years. I don't think they ever went into Uhura, Sulu, or Chekov beyond the last time we see them on-screen, so we don't really know how long after the Enterprise-B first voyage they lived.

At the time it was the logical thing to do.
Anyone ele have tears in his eyes?
I think this is the moment, Spock realised that no matter what the universe, his destiny is with Kirk, his crew and the Enterprise.
Except in the mirror universe of course, where his destiny is to start a mutiny and overthrow the evil Terran empire.

She was still gorgeous!
Not unreleased, just maybe you did not see it? That photo has been around since 1991 or earlier, I remember seeing it in a StarLog magazine.
Remey Rune really cause the bridge looks pretty similar to the one from Star Trek V
@@gabrielmenchaca1715 yes they used the same bridge but I believe the group photo was not taken at that time
@@remeyrune6009 You can tell it was ST5 because Sulu was still a Commander
Someone's cutting those onions around me again
R.I.P. Anton Yelchin, Leonard Nimoy, James Doohan, and Deforest Kelley 😭😭😭😭😭
And Ben cross, and jerry goldsmith, and james horner.
And nichelle nichols.
darnit there's something in my eyes again
They're called tears.
This scene shows how to give respect to what came before, something that the entire Star Wars sequel trilogy wasn't able to accomplish.
You nailed it right on the head!
I'd actually argue that the ST actually respected the OT too much, not really daring to do anything too new. The prequel trilogy on the other hand...man, it's actually somewhat insulting IMO.
@@YggdrasilAudio Fair point.
@@YggdrasilAudio you mean *sequel trilogy
@@Barri2410 No, I mean the prequels. Like, I get some of what they're going for, but the execution is so all over the place that any intended message becomes muddled, and I don't even find the movies particularly entertaining anymore.
EDIT And I know George Lucan had creative control over both the PT and the OT but they simply do not meld well in my eyes. I can elaborate if you want to.
This for me was the saddest thing I have ever seen so powerful and everlasting. I was brought up with the original series and it felt personal like losing a great friend
I thought, only me felt like this
Only legends in that photo
morals die legends live forever
JJA's star trek is real masterpiece. The whole movie connected to the old series.
This was such a great part of the movie, Spock tells McCoy that he was considering leaving Starfleet and assuming Prime Spock's responsibility in helping his race rebuild. Saying that he wanted to live as he did, thinking that was the time his older counterpart felt was most important to him. But here he finds this photo and both he and the audience are shown that in the long and eventful life Spock lived, the best and most cherished years of it all was serving with his shipmates in Starfleet and so young Spock stays not only to fulfill what he said he wanted to do to honor old Spock's memory, but because his time with them is too something he cherishes.
I honestly teared up at this moment. Seeing the old cast on the bridge of the Enterprise-A on the big screen just...it was a perfect moment. And a beautiful way to honor Trek's 50th anniversary, making sure they were all there.
I love the three things shown there.
The teachings of Surak,
The robes he wore to Romulus,
And a photo of his family.
Makes sense the Kir, Shira is like a bible to a Vulcan. They live their lives by its teachings.
The robes he wore on Romulus make sense as he wanted to remember all he had seen and done in his ultimate bid to unify both peoples
Family photo is not unusual either. When I flew transport aircraft or tankers near air battles my photo always reminded me to come home whatever the cost. I always made it back
@@matthewcaughey8898
Absolutely. That’s why I love it.
This is one of the best Tributes in all of Movie history
RIP Leonard Nimoy
When they showed the photo, I’ll admit I almost cried...
Oh I completely lost it. Just did again
I myself cried when I went to see it and still do when I watch it
Lie down
Try not to cry
Cry a lot.
I am almost cried over that scene.
aaronr607 you’re a true trekie fan.
Thanks. Its like a part of me already grew up and glad that the original spock met captain picard.
Almost?!? Man, I was full on waterworks...
Ok. I did
I haven't even watched the old films and I cried during this scene.
I remember the whole theater clapping when this part happened.
be strange to be young and have meet yourself as an old man
In addition yourself from another universe.
FreezeNexus alternate timeline
Such a beautiful way to memorialize the original Spock. RIP Leonard. Live long and prosper. 🖖
I didn't fully get the impact of this moment till my 3rd viewing. 1st was in theaters, when I watched after rewatching the 1st 2 films. Sad yes but I wasn't blubbering. Time 2, similar to the first but with anticipation for the moment. Time 3, I was at home after doing my 50 year marathon....going by release date. Seeing everything prime Spock had been through, all those years only to end up where he did, with only one memento. A picture of his crew, together again. And to have KT Spock look at it, probably recognizing his crew.....it's heartbreaking
When I looked at this scene, I presume KT Spock did recognize who's who in the photo, even though they're not the exact faces he's accustomed to seeing because thats a different universe. And it provided the hint that in his universe, Spock and the Enterprise crew will be together for many years to come...
@@MoniqueFromPlymouth possibly. The other way to look at it is the ambassador asked to meld with his younger self after Kahn incident to gain insight into the timeline changes.
bemasaberwyn55 | I doubt they both mind-melded off-screen... remember in their face-to-face encounter that Nimoy's Spock clearly stated he will not interfere and allow the alternate timeline and general history to play out. Yes, I know he gave KT Spock the "spoiler" that Khan eventually lost and the price was high, but Nimoy's Spock did not give away too much as Kahn was very difficult to beat in either universe.
@@MoniqueFromPlymouth true. If memory serves though, his reasoning was to keep the 5 year mission mostly in tact. I feel the incident with Kahn may have changed his mind(conjecture of course)
bemasaberwyn55 | Regardless, Nimoy's Spock did not live very long in the alternate timeline to assist this Enterprise crew... which is heartbreaking as you said in your first post. As a viewer, I was half-hoping that somehow, someway he could return to his real timeline - like he always did in his onscreen Trek adventures where he and Kirk time travels, but it was not to be this time. With Nimoy's death, that made it hopeless for Roddenberry's Spock, which for me is sad in thats how it ends for his character.
Right now I’m thinking of the trial in Star Trek 4. Spock joins the crew before the Federation President:
“Captain Spock, you do not stand accused.”
“I stand with my shipmates.”
It's poignant and reminder of the warmth and friendship the crew and real life cast. The original crew and cast grew old along with us. This new crew is still in their prime and yet to complete their 5 year mission. There isn't the same feeling of family.
It's coming along.
honor the past, and your future will be bright :,)
Live Long, and Prosper. 🖖🏻
Loved this moment in the theatre!
The real Trek team
not ashamed to admit, i shed a tear in the theater during this scene
Same
Just proves that we’re all still human somewhere in ourselves
Is it weird that I had a feeling it was going to be that exact photo? I had seen it years prior in a movie magazine, and the image stuck with me ever since.
Glad to see that it made it into the movie!
Kirk, Sulu, Chekov and Uhura are still alive. Half of the team.
Edit: RIP Uhura! Nichelle Nichols (1932-2022).
That moment brought back a lot of memories both from the last few classic era movies themselves and from my life at the time they were released.
The fact that only three of them are still alive makes this even more sad
It must've been strange for Spock seeing a photo of Spock Prime and his Enterprise shipmates on the bridge of the Enterprise-A from the alternate timeline.
It was a very sad day when I heard Leonard Nimoy had passed away. I grew up watching the original Star Trek series and Movies because my parents loved them and then I became a huge Start Trek TNG fan. I had the honor of meeting Leonard Nimoy at a book signing ages ago for his book I am Spock and he was the most gracious, humble, and sincerely genuine, and nicest celebrity I have ever met. I was a young girl no more than 16 or 17 years old geeking out over meeting Spock and he was just so nice it surprised me. He embraced the fact that he would always be most well known for his character of Spock and did not become jaded by it as so many celebrities do. He was a truly amazing human being.
RIP Leonard Nimoy (March 26, 1931 - February 27, 2015), aged 83
You will be remembered as a legend.
The red uniforms were perfect for their era, and are (In my opinion) best uniforms with the First Contact uniforms coming in second. I also loved the Star Fleet Badges from the Original Series movies the most.
Kirk, Sulu and Chekov are the only ones still around. (the actors at least)
Hurts even more now that we've lost Nichelle. I had the pleasure of meeting her several times, including her last tour in 2019. And now only three remain.
And one can’t hear you over the sound of how awesome he is ( Shatner)
That TOS trumpet theme
I nearly cried when I saw this.
See? This is why you shouldnt cancel this reboot series.
And quinto is better than peck. Just saying.
I wish Spock showed this picture to the others
Would you want to see how you look 30 years from now?
@@BigNoseDog Maybe
He probably did or will. If we get a fourth film with the Kelvin Timeline, we might just see that happen.
Even this Spock was like "Damn. I remember when Star Trek was good."
that is a good homage !
What's this? A reboot of a beloved classic that shows genuine love and respect towards said classic, instead of mocking it and the fans for not liking this new version?!
Cried so hard. So beautiful. Live long and prosper.
I guess we all got the feels with this scene. Yeah. I too got that lump in my throat. :)
This scene brings tears to my eyes
Ditto
Man I love this scene so much. I honestly can say I cried when I saw it in theaters, I still cry every time.
The last will and testament of Mr. Spock
Every time I see this, I cry.
Shame Spock prime never got back to his own universe, would have survived longer.
I was telling my sister that William Shatner might play alternate timeline Kirk. She said it was super unlikely but I was kinda right.
Maybe in the next film...
A wonderful nod to the original cast.
for the memory of prime spock...
RIP Leonard Nimoy
This touching moment is for us (mostly Baby Boomers) who were there when the original series began. The original cast was the heart and soul of Star Trek!
Au moment au la photo c’est éclairé mes yeux ce sont remplis de larmes cette scène est terrible, extraordinaire pour tout les fans
Revoir tout l’équipage original en uniforme rouge de ( Star Trek les films) est d’ une grande émotion . Trois personnes ne sont plus parmi nous, de Forest Kelly, james doohan et Leonard Nimoy. Et le visage de zaqary quinto est magnifique, lui aussi se montre dévasté par la mort de Léonard Nimoy.
Je trouve que c’est une très bel hommage, aux hommes et femmes qui ont créé et jouaient Star Trek. Merci pour ce post
You know what would have been funny if the picture of the cast on the bridge of the Enterprise A if that picture was a picture taken on the bridge of the T.O.S. Enterprise pre-refit.
This scene alone made me cry when I went to see it and still does when I watch it
This scene made me cry and was the only scene in the entire Abramsverse trilogy that moved me towards any emotion aside from unbridled anger and manic depression, and the only reason it made me do so was the stark contrast between how awful the Abramsverse is and how amazing even one photo for Star Trek V, which I used to consider the worst of Star Trek, is.
Out of curiosity, what is so bad about the new movies? Sure the story isn’t super out there, but they’re enjoyable none the less. Personally, even though it lacked the striking originality of the the original series and the subsequent spin-offs, these movies were genuinely entertaining and refreshing to see in a time where high effort sci fi is exceedingly rare.
@@partiallyslicedbread369 I think just explaining the plot of any of them pretty much says it all, like for example: could you summarise the plot of 'Star Trek' (2009)? (I realise you said the story wasn't super, but this is crux of it in my view, although I also do not like the cinematography style either)
Nicholas Kent I mean, I see it as this, I enjoyed the movies enough to recommend them, not to Star Trek fans or sci fi fans per say, but just the average person. I think that I watched the new Star Trek films for the stunning visual effects, the acting, and the appeal of seeing Star Trek modernized. And the plot of the 2009 movie is a bit too lengthy to summarize effectively.
In Wrath of Khan Spock is revived by a combination of the Genesis effect and his Vulcan physiology and mental abilities.
In Into Darkness Kirk was revived by Khan's magic blood.
Just one example of why the reboot movies suck.
@@partiallyslicedbread369Due to the fact that they changed the timeline to the point where it wasn’t really the OG crew (them with different backstories based on the time travel way to bring Spock Prime into the story) is why it is “bad” to some fans. The Kelvin version might end up being the best in their respective timeline regardless of how things changed before they even met because of Nero and Spock Prime unintentionally being brought back in time.
Always tearing up
Hits especially hard today.
Not gonna lie: there were some Onion Ninjas in my house when I saw that photo.
Beyond was my favourite of the new movies.. it connected the NX01-era Trek into the new series and also paid proper tribute to the old cast. Nicely done.
Something that the SW sequel trilogy didn't do. Disney, take note: THIS is how you respect a franchise legacy.
I'll admit, when I saw this in theaters, I cried. And I still cry when I see it now.
it's interesting to think, everything in that box is what he had with him when Spock went to the Kelvin timeline, so that picture was quite important to him
If I'm not mistaken, he is the last surving senior Enterprise crew member by the time he's leaves his timeline.
@@re1010 As far as he knew, anyway. It's not known if McCoy survived to that point in the TNG era, but it is likely that Scotty did live to that time, as he was stuck in the Dyson Sphere for almost 80 years. I don't think they ever went into Uhura, Sulu, or Chekov beyond the last time we see them on-screen, so we don't really know how long after the Enterprise-B first voyage they lived.
@@2097Pyros It's long been rumoured that Montgomery Scott designed the Sovereign Class.
I did like that this ST series was part of an altetnate timeline.
very nice passing of the torch moment. this is how it should be done
The original and best crew. Sad to think there only 4 left now.
