Star Trek question (this hangup is killing the movie for me) [spoilers, natch]

Posted by prayformojo (aka mayhem) Nov 30 '09, 10:29

Was there any plausible reason why Kirk was stranded on the same planet as Old Spock?

anything more than "a wizard did it?"

this is a small point but i keep fixating on it.

- I liked how on the special features for the DVD, the CGI crew discussed the lens flare used in filming, and how they had to replicate it in the CGI - Roger More Nov 30, 10:34 11
  - I wouldn't have noticed it nearly as much until people mentioned it. - Will Hunting Nov 30, 10:47 1
    - It's like the shaky-cam in the Bourne movies - it passed over a lot of people but bothered a large minority -- nm - Roger More Nov 30, 10:54
  - I honestly never noticed this once. -- nm - Reagen Nov 30, 10:41 2
    - I'm not sure I would have noticed much if not for such a big deal being made of them. -- nm - prayformojo Nov 30, 10:43
    - I joked about it a ton, but I think I only noticed a few flares -- nm - Beryllium Nov 30, 10:43
  - D*Con TV took on Lens Flare -- (link) - Qale Nov 30, 10:38
  - that fact made me angrier about it. "dudes, you created flare *you wouldn't normally see under those circumstances.*" -- nm - Max Nov 30, 10:37 3
    - Their explanation was that it added life to the screen, while 'space' looks kind of boring -- nm - Roger More Nov 30, 10:40 2
      - just like the "I'm not touching you!" game adds life to a boring car ride, sure. -- nm - Max Nov 30, 10:44 1
        
        KIRKSPOCK PUNCH BUGGY! -- nm - Beryllium Nov 30, 10:44

    - nubby should address this, but I think - Max Nov 30, 10:46
- yeah, your point in the IM was the one that kind of bothered me for a minute. - Callisto Nov 30, 10:31 1
  - hmm. i was hoping i had missed something, esp since we were playing the Star Trek Drinking Game - prayformojo Nov 30, 10:32
