How would you rate the Star Trek: TOS Remastered episode "Space Seed"?

And, how would you rate the CGI effects in this episode?

Not too many effects in this one. The only ones I noticed were the ship flybys and the monitor that Khan was looking at in the sickbay (in the original it wasn't lit up like a computer monitor should be).

My favorite new effect was when Khan discarded the Botany Bay and it was shown floating erraticly away from the departing Enterprise. A whole lot better than the original scene.

The episode I gave an "A". And the effects I gave an "A". All good.

(Question, though: Was that really William Shatner as Kirk fighting Khan in the engineering room?)

I haven't seen the entire episode yet, but those flybys sure were pretty.

All the scenes with enterprise and the Botany bay were excellent! especialy the when it first comes along side the BB and best od all was the float away scene, not only did you get a detailed look at the BB but the rear angle of the enterprise veering away was cool.

Very Nice Tom, the Video Library is really shaping up!

I loved the new Botany Bay. It's the same, and yet it's different. And the new flyby shots with the Botany Bay were great, too.

Have to agree with you on all points here Kyle. Loved the flybys. Some great angles of the Enterprise and Botany Bay here. I like seeing the individual hull plates on the ship. Ties it in with the movies and other series nicely.



And yeah, that wasn't Shatner in alot of those fight scenes with Khan. I think the clean print and clarity of the picture really brings that out now. Still, gave this one 'A's on both accounts. Now I should watch TWOK again.

It's not uncommon for wide shots of fight scenes to not include the actual actors. While it's VERY apparent in many Star Trek episodes, I started noticing it in shows like Buffy The Vampire Slayer a lot more after a while too.

This episode was repeated this week (03-03-2007).

TrekMovie has posted a side-by-side video comparison of the original and remastered versions.

both get an A, my fav episode of TOS gets the proper upgrade it deserves. I love the closeup fly-by with the Botany Bay aside the Enterprise...beautiful, also the scene when they leave the Botany Bay adrift

It's a great episode! I gave it a A. I like the episode because of the action and because it's so interesting.
