Star Trek V: Turbolift scene fixed. The worst scene from the worst film.

- To say Star Trek V: The final frontier was a letdown is an understatement. After what became a great unplanned trilogy of Star Trek II, III, & IV the crew were set to have all new adventures with their brand new ship, the USS Enterprise 1701-A. The resulting story and execution was far from the standard set by its predecessors. They’re a lot of things to complain about the film. The lackluster story, poor special effects, the clearly reduced budget, but they’re are several continuity errors the standout. Most of all to me is the Turbolift scene. After breaking out of their own brig, Kirk, Spock and McCoy escape using an unused turbolift shaft. For some reason, probably because of director Bill Shatner the deck numbers go in the wrong directions. In any naval ship, and every other Enterprise, top level is deck 1 and the numbers grow larger towards the bottom. But in this film, for whatever reason they go off of a high rise building. They start their climb at the bottom of Deck 7 and end up somewhere above deck 78! Also 78 decks is over 3 times too many decks as their should for that ship. To that end I corrected the deck signage. I also upscaled it to 4K using machine learning with Topaz Lab’s Video Enhance AI. This will be the first of a series of scenes i’m correcting from the film.

Well, that's two minutes of the movie fixed.
Only 105 left to go.
Partially fixed. There still needs to be horizontal movement, as there is no way to get from deck 19 to deck 1 in a single vertical pass. That being said,... the last number we saw was 6, so that answers some of that. But the only way it could work is if the turbolift shaft was inside the warp core LOL
It's been 30 years. I didn't know I needed this.
But I needed this.
So does anyone notice that when Spock comes back with the boots he comes DOWN? How? Why didn't he take the others by that route?
Nicely done Nick.
Just shows, however much you edit it you can't repair the work of a terrible director who can't remember "enter up" and "enter down". Unless it's the whole movie is secretly meant to be Shatner's ripoff of Spaceballs as one Internet reviewer has suggested
Exactly
I(!) wanted to make this supersmart comment. :D What a bad scene overall. But nicely done NIck.
I guess he could’ve added a sound effect that sounds like Spock travelling up first? Just a thought…
Of course. He rightfully should've bumped into Sulu on his way out or someone wandering around the ship. If it was that easy to get up there they probably could've just walked.
Brilliant work! ST5 has always been my favorite of the Star Trek films, but I've still always been irked by scenes like this one. I've always felt that it deserved a "Special Edition" that corrects mistakes like this sequence. THANK YOU for making this happen so well!
First of all, it is by far not the worst film. Star Trek Insurrection, Star Trek Nemesis, Star Trek Into Darkness & Beyond.. some of the scenes in Star Trek 5 are some of the best scenes in All Star Trek movies.
The scenes around the campfire with Kirk Spock and McCoy. The scene with McCoy and his father. The scene with Spock during his birth.
You have to remember there was a writer strike a Teamster strike and shatner was not able to put the ending on the movie he wanted because industrial lights and magic wasn't available and a special effects company had to be fired because how badly they were doing with their special effects.
They ran out of money after a horror shoot. Not Shatner's fault.
In all honesty they could put his ending in the movie today using computer technology and since the series has made billions for Paramount pictures, they should do a Shatner directors cut with his ending as it was originally intended.
I agree, especially the camping scenes and Kirk talking about. He needs his suffering.
A lot more work needs to be done on this movie to make it worthy, but man, this is an excellent start! And you can't help but wonder why the original scene wasn't like this. I'm still hoping that the studio will give Shatner a chance to do an official Director's Cut while he's still with us, but since they couldn't even be bothered to make a remastered Blu-ray of the TMP Director's Cut for the 40th anniversary I've just about given up hope. I guess it's going to be up to folks like you to show us here how STV could've looked
They probably could since Paramount Plus is around. I would like to see the improvised remastered enterprise scenes and the rock man scene.
That was fantastic! Excellent work on fixing the Studio's screw up!! (That original scene always bugged me!) Well done!!!
You mean Shatner screw up (applies to the whole movie) the best way to watch is 2, 3, 4 as a trilogy... Then skip 5 and move onto 6. It keeps the momentum, story and themes of the movies cohesive
It's NOT the worst film.
God Bless, son, you make this old Trekie proud. I HATED this scene! 72 decks?! Outsanding!
I watched at half speed and am delighted to see you went to the trouble of fixing even the fleeting blurred deck numbers at 1:49 . Such a great job, like all your edits.
I’d be curious to see if he can fix that climax ST5 and put in the rock creature fight that Shatner always wanted and gift that to him while he’s still with us?
What the editors should have done from the beginning is cut to the next scene once Spock says "I believe I found a faster way"
Did they think nobody would notice? Especially when the numbers are so prominent. Ignoring the fact they should be starting at the highest deck and going to deck 1 at the tippy top of the ship the order in which they pass decks is insane. I mean, right from the start, it looks like they begin from deck 6. They pick up Kirk at deck 13 and Bones at deck 12. Then as soon as they start sinking it cuts to an overhead of Sulu coming in to get them but they appear to be only 2 or 3 decks up at most. Then it gets really fun as the numbers we pass by are, in order, 35, 52, 64, 63 and 64 again, 65, 52 again, 77 and 78. Then it cuts to a POV presumably from our heroes looking up as Kirk says frantically "Hit the brakes!". At this point they just passed by deck 78 but from this POV they seem to be at least anywhere from 8-20 decks away from hitting the top of the turbolift shaft yet they once again pass by deck 78 and finally come to a stop a few feet from hitting the top. That was...that was bad. That was really bad. I find it hard to believe that nobody noticed they went past several decks multiple times as well as in the wrong order in the final edit. Did he just want it to seem like a bigger rocket boost but just didn't shoot enough deck numbers at the time so they figured who cares? It's not like anybody will notice the numbers in huge print on a cinema screen that is roughly 50-60 feet wide and 30 feet high. I'm sure it'll be fine.
The original scene made the Enterprise A way bigger than the JJ verse one.
Good work! The only thing missing is to remove the shadow that appears behind Spock as he descends to Kirk when wearing the rocket boots. It's the shadow of the bar that connects Nimoy to the track along the turboshaft.
It's like something out of the 3 Stooges! All it needed was a quick shot of the outer hull and 3 bumps suddenly forming with a triple "CLANG!"
Much better. This should be made official.
This was awesome---I love the fact that you took the time to show the MSD on the side in the review. Nicely done--it was practically seamless--like the film should have been that way! Well done!
NIce work! The thing that always got me in this scene is at 1:35 Kirk is hanging in free space, then 1:38, he takes his hands off Spock's shoulders and shifts behind him.
" Captain,here I am, from above."
" Well, Spock, why didn't you just take us with you?."
Decks in order: 08?, 12, 13, 10, 08? (again), 35, 36, 52, 64, 63, 64 (again), 65, 52 (again), 77, 78, 78 (again), 1
I know. Drove me crazy
Very nice work. Such a subtle change, but it removes the annoyance from the entire scene.
According to the diagram, they are climbing the main turboshaft. Scotty told them to use a turboshaft that is under maintenance. The Enterprise NCC 1701-A may be new and Starfleet may have decided to take revenge on Scotty for sabotaging the Excelsior by making him chief engineer of a "disaster", but why isn't there a turbolift in the longest shaft of the vessel, especially when Kirk, Spock and McCoy walked out of one when they arrived at the bridge after being called back from shore leave?
I’m not 100% sure they intended this to be the turbolift shaft connecting the saucer the drive section
This is the best thing I’ve seen in years…. Ha. Great work…. Your service is greatly appreciated.
This fixes it until you realise the geography of the ship doesn't fit a single turbolift shaft going all the way up 18 plus of the 22 decks
nicely done. Thought why does spock come from above? 🤣 so many mistakes they made on this movie, still better then into darkness.
So they just have an open beltline in the wall like that? Haven't seen anything like that since Ernest Goes To Jail.
To quote the Borg: Perfection.
Can't wait to watch your edit! I love this film, warts and all, but there are a lot of areas that could be improved with a little clever editing or a tweak to the title cards. I've recently started playing with some of the Topaz AI photo editing tools - I'm really interested to see what Video Enhance is capable of. We might get that HD "release" of the TMP director's cut after all, LOL!
Ah yes, this so needed to be fixed. Thank you! Man, this movie needs to have all the SFX replaced and things like this fixed on a new release. Desipte the movie weaknesses, it does have some good character moments.
Great job. Look forward to more from you. Shatner’s original opening had and establishing shot of the Milky Way and then a constant zoom in until they reach earth and then it continued until They reached him on the rock face in Yosemite. It couldn’t be done by the Effects house but You are more than up to the task
I love hall the turbolift wall panels are swinging in the breeze as they climb up the ladder.
I really enjoyed this film, but that's probably because I was expecting it to be crap beyond belief and it wasn't that bad.
This is only the second video i watch you released and I loved what you did, too bad we can't put your cut into the offical movie
That would have been so simple even 30 years ago... it was such a disappointment seeing it in the film for the first time.
There in the terboshaft by the way it looks on the blueprint where are the Turbolifts at and what would happen if they ran into it on the way as they shoot up
What always bothered me in this scene was the trench where the lifting mechanism is clearly hiding. It looks like one of those amusement park rides.
Heh, GREAT fix!! 😀
Tbh, I minded to make my own cut of the film, utilising all the great rendered effects for this movie that people have shared on RUclips; this would be a GREAT example!
Cutting the Scotty scenes where he bangs his head, and the relationship with Uhuru and I think it's actually a great fun romp that is generous to the cast, and audience, but hey - vive la difference!
IDIC 😀❤️🖖
Bravo - the live schematic is both hilarious and genuinely authentic. Should be overlayed on the film proper imho ;)
Amazing work with this one! Any one still wonder how Spock came from above?
He snuck through the corridors and jeffries tubes and entered the lift shaft from a few decks above. Much easier to do that alone than with 3 people.
Yeah that was a puzzle.
He went up along the plasma conduit, and then came down to get Kirk and McCoy.. McCoy was right to have wanted to wait "for the next car".
I was so disappointed at the theater. It gave my first wife SO much ammunition against Star Trek...and making the beautiful Enterprise a flying malfunction...horrible.
my fav film. next to part ii i think. i like that people are making improvements to it. watching this scene now it occurs to me for the first time, how terrifying this would actually be
Nice work, that's always bugged me too!
I can now rest in Stovokor....thx
How is the lift broken when the Enterprise is a Brand new Ship ?
Nice work. Well done. Not sure why some signs say DECK (Number.) and others say (Number) DECK? Did I miss something?
Good job. In my edit, I cut before Spock started to leave after McCoy was on the ladder. I eliminated the whole rocket boots scene. It appeared they all got to where they were going by climbing the ladder.
I like the diagram at the end to show their position
Great job! Now fix the tuborlift scenes in Discovery!!! :-)
I’m going to look into it
Really shows how easy it would have been to get it right in the film.
This is very nice. If the text was angled a bit more to match the angle of the original boards, it would be practically perfect.
Fantastic work! Still a silly scene, but it makes sense now.
Doing Gods work.
Anyone else notice the shadow of the harness holding Nimoy to the wall when he descends?
Nicely done! You’re doing The Lord’s work! 🖖😀
The turbo shaft that bisects the photon torpedo tubes 🤦🏻♂️
There are two torpedo tubes, this turboshaft likely sits right between them, not to mention the Torpedo bays are much smaller, more automated facilities on the Enterprise-A than they were on the refit.
@@DelcoRanz93 incorrect
This film sucked balls but strill much better that that first waste of time that was TOP.
The alarms and engine noises are slightly eerie
St5 wasn't the best but i think we can and should enjoy it as a last episode with the original cast.
Well done, it looks great!
MUCH better. Adds tension to the scene while maintaining the comical aspect more effectively.
Love the "Whoa!"
A nice fix, and better than the Discovery turdolift solution.
Really nice work and nice solution for this scene problem...!! Thanks!!!
Also, the side graphic helps a lot...!!
Thanks. Yeah helped me
I. Love. This. !!!
Of the original 6 Star Trek movies this for me was the worst.
Can you cg in the wonderful Nichelle Nichols from when she was younger and could actually pull off the moon/fan dance Shatner gave her.
She still pulled it off beautifully at the age she was.
@@rossscaffidi874 True, but as a younger dancer she was incredibly limber. ruclips.net/video/x9NatVnLEoU/видео.html
THANK YOU FOR THIS!
Spock came down the lift shaft. Why didn't he just take Kirk and Bones that way in the first place 😂
Very nicely done
Very nicely done.
my fave of the series take that haters
After TMP, and III, it's my third favourite.
V has its detractors, and there is a lot that's wrong with it, but it has four things that it got right:
1 - Lawrence Luckinbill is fantastic;
2 - the sound is really good. It's punchy, and very detailed;
3 - the cinematography is some of the very best of the series;
4 - Jerry's score is phenomenal!
Much better.
It's not the worst film. This scene is ridiculous though. How does Spock get above them, in either cut? Shouldn't he have stepped out, got the boots, returned and flown up to them? Other than the deck numbers what is fixed? And lose the fan scene you have a good film.
Very accurate title
That is so much better.
Hit the booster rockets shit brakes were gonna be packed on the roof of the turbo lift as three crushed people
Thank you so much
The Rise Of Skywalker of its time.
Well DONE!!!
Awesome 😎
This wasn't the worst film P'tock ... it just was the funniest
Are they are THAT many decks on the Enterprise and are they all lined up in a straight line? 😆
Not quite the worst film i would say the motion picture was the worst and yes it's not perfect star trek 5 but that was because of budget reasons
and it's nothing to do with William Shatner the ending changed as well it ended differently to the original ending good fix nick anyway
STTMP was my favorite.
MUCH better.
Nicely done! Would you consider fixing the mountain climbing scene in the beginning? IMHO, taking out the part were Spock begins chasing Kirk down the mountain and the terrible blue screen scenes just need to disappear. That should have been left to our imagination, I would think from the moment Kirk fell to the shots taken from afar right up to where Spock is holding Kirk from a couple feet from the ground would fix it...if you have time of course.
You did a much better job than the so called pros! Proof positive that the best talent isn’t anywhere near Hollywood!
Thanks man!
What's different? Looks the same to me.
Thanks great job !
Now you can try to fix Star Trek Discovery Season 3 Turbolift giant empty space ^^
That would require going back in time and telling the Discovery people that they're not working on Doctor Who and to stop that nonsense as well as having a whole fighter squadron fitting in the Enterprise's hangar deck. Hell, they even doubled down on it and had a whole action sequence take place in there! I've just learned to accept Discovery and the rest of NuTrek as is and I have no doubt that they get high in that writer's room
Not the worst. There are after all JJ Abrams films.
Sometimes I believe Shatner's only goal was to make everyone but himself look inept in their roles. Didn't quite work out that way.
Worst science in TNG: "Our life is carbon-based. Theirs is solangen-based." UGH UGH UGH WHAT A GROSS SCRIPTWRITER TURRRD
Bravo!
Shut up star trek v eats
What are you talking about? This is like one of the best scenes, so what there was a little movie mistake on the numbers
