For a fanmade project, this is very good quality. Their fandom peeks through a bit too much, but they portrayed the characters really well. The acting is a little flat in places, and Spock's mention of being half human was wildly inappropriate. Spock's character is not ashamed of that, but he doesn't flaunt it either. He's a very private individual. The actor playing Bones, put in a lot of effort to be Bones, and he gets a star from me :D
I watched the whole thing, it's like they tried to put in a reference to EVERYTHING all in one episode! Also the background music never seems to stop! Not too bad for amateurs, but sometimes less is more...
The problem is the lead actor playing Kirk. I've posted my comments before that he should step down, put ego aside and let someone else play kirk. To those wh defend him, I say this: WHY DOES EVERYONE ELSE IN THE CAST HAVE TO RESEMBLE THE ORIGINAL CAST MEMBERS EXCEPT THE LEAD??? Because the lead's ego doesn't give a damn. He wants to play Kirk. I can't blame him for that but I can certainly fault him for requiring the other actors look like the original cast. What an artistic hypocrite.
@pickerman123 I can't agree. Kirk is such a simple character that almost anybody could pull him off. This guy clearly has a great time riffing on Shatners' hamminess and the rug REALLY sells it. The rickety thespianism was a huge part of the old shows' charm, anyway. "Dammit, Jim, I'm a DOCTOR, not a DECENT ACTOR!"
Where are the homosexuals? After watching Star Trek Odyssey I realized that Star Trek was missing homosexuals. Now after they are included in this show is the best show ever. Without the homosexuals thsi universe wouldn't be complete anyway.
I love this episode. I notice some sound effects from Space 1999. When Uhura passes out, I hear the sitar music from one of the episodes in the first season of Space 1999. I like it. Very retro '70's.
The recreation of the orginal sets, and uniforms is amazing! But the acting needs work, and what the hell is wrong with Kirks hair? And Spock looks like a guy dressed as a women, but yet as Spock.
This is the one episode in the series (aside from the unaired ones) that I hadn't seen. It's....um, not as good of quality as later ones. I do love that the bit about Spock knowing what irritation is was practically lifted verbatim from a TOS episode. Very cute.
That's a crazy squatter's chick. Don't bother, she can't be reasoned with.. They weren't around in the 60's. Just like star trek episodes which force homoerotisism down everybody's throats.
@nightowl685 wtf is a TNG borg pyramid doing in a fan made TOS film like this? it just makes no sense to me? n incase most of you havent forgotten that borg pyramid is a colony ship designed to assimilate worlds
I've been watching the full episodes on the startreknewvoyages website. They are so good, it's a shame you can't buy them. Love seeing the ST vets in them. The Walter Koenig episode is amazing!!!
The sets and effort are top notch - you guys need better direction with set ups and exchange. TOS had signature camera moves that would benefit if you were to apply them to your films
hey dude... wanna come on over and do some romulan ale? I got the power shit, from romulas not that outdoor remian shit. We can hit it with the transporter, mr scott's gonna be gone for a bit. spock of course your in too wouldn't leave ya' hangin' dude.

James Cawley, the guy who plays Kirk, was an Elvis impersonator before he started doing this show. He still had the Elvis hairdo in the first two episodes of New Voyages, but not in the third episode "To Serve All My Days".
Hey - this is a really neat vid!! Like going back in time but having the knowledge of the present series. I wasn't too keen on all the characters at first but they are starting to grow on me.

Feels a little too cartoonish abd comedic. Not dramatic enough. Also, Scotty's Scots accent is awful and the actor jumps out of character too much.
I'd post a breakdown and recast the whole thing. Also, what is up with Kirk's hair?!
Lame hair.
Big fan of Trek...this show is killing it for me.
