Yesterday I decide watch another TOS episode, I like “Let THat Be Your Last Battlefield”.

Something I notice people forget about old Star Trek is how the enterprise was capable of terraforming entire planets or even decontainment it in just a seconds in the episode.

This is also funny to me because Spore game did the playeable spaceship into capable of creating life or destroying it at player’s will.

I have the feeling Star Trek writers just forget about this.

What you think about this enterprise feature?

    You know, when the new effects were done, I liked them. Years later, I always watch with the original effects. The new ones just feel plastic and odd. The old ones, for all the grain and noise, have charm.

      I’ve always hated the new effects. Some of the matte painting replacements work pretty well, but the ship exterior stuff sticks out like a sore thumb.
