A few more for ya...
-Planet Vulcan seems to be made up of cgi-shots of Vaquez Rocks, the location where original series episodes such as "Arena" were filmed.
-On the drill platform, Kirk uses a wrist-communicator similar to those in Star Trek - The Motion Picture and a couple of times in The Wrath of Kahn.
-Maybe just a coincidence, but Kirk tries a "does not compute" type of line on Spock, similar to a scene in Alien Resurrection with Winona Ryder... who plays Spock's mum in this film! Incidentally, that particular scene in Alien Resurrection also features Ron Pearlman, the Viceroy in Star Trek - Nemesis.

ACTUALLY it's in http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/comics/ ... index.htmlSundance wrote:it's in the archive, toys/af/misc
So I just saw the film, as a huge Trek fan I have to categorise it as SEISMIC.
I was expecting to hear Majel Barrett as the voice of the computer, did I miss her?

If you missed her, so did I. Who ever it was didn't sound like Majel. It pretty much shat all the Trek history out the window. I was disappointed with that. I still maintain that they are running out of original ideas, which really is piss poor imo. It was still a good film tho. Just not a good Trek film.The Baron wrote: So I just saw the film, as a huge Trek fan I have to categorise it as SEISMIC.

I heard she completed it just before she passed, IMDB has her credited too. Maybe she was the computer in Spock's ship?

majel was the voice of the Enterprise and Kirk's escape pod.
the 'jellyfish' ship was voiced by Susan 'Leah Brahms'/'Erika Benteen' Gibney

Majel was the voice of the computer that Chekov had trouble speaking too...Space Commander wrote:Leonard Nimoy, Majel Barrett Roddenberry, and W. Morgan Sheppard (Star Trek VI) all receive credits.

Spolier!
Chops and I were discussing this subject the other day, and while I agree that the whole Spock / Uhura business seems a little out of keeping with the rest of the film, i DO have a theory as to why it appears in the script.
Back in the 1960s episode "Plato's Stepchildren", there was a very famous scene written for Uhura and Spock... but it was changed so that the scene went to Uhura and Kirk instead! I theorise that the stuff in the new film between Uhura and Spock is an attempt to redress the balance...
And let us not forget the flirting between Spock and Uhura in the 1960s episodes, "The Man Trap", "Charlie X", and "Who Mourns For Adonais?"
