@@redengineer4380 Not with that strap on she's equipped with as standard he wouldn't. No wonder he started to run like a girl in T J Hooker. He had a Star Ship and swapped it for a Plymouth.
It was very well done, but I was a bit disappiinted. I saw a "Lost episode" this morning where Kirk freaked out on McCoy's special red pills and a 6 inch high Klingon set fire to his hair. I didn't realise this was a different channel. Well, done though.
Interesting take. I loved it. However, there was no need for the enterprise the fire on the borg. Kirk and Spock would just talk the borg to death. Kirk and Spock arguing logic has been the demise of many technical opponents in the Star Trek universe.
The Doomsday Machine was actually created to battle the Borg by a race called the Preservers. A race referred to in the TOS episode, 'The Paradise Syndrome'. See the Star Trek novel, Vendetta.
@@MORE1500 as far as I know those books aren't Canon so it's like fan base stories. Besides, the Doomsday machine will win. They can't assimilate machines and their weapons have no effect unless they trying to destroy it from the inside. By then one blast from doomsday would destroy over 90% of a borg cube and 100% of any other borg ship. Remember, doomsday is a planetary destroyer. It's only job is to destroy planets and feed off of them to keep going.
There'd be a scene with Kirk pulling his boots back on, with a sweaty dishelved Borg Queen on a messy bed behind him. Communicator chirps. Mr. Spock asks," Captain you're overdue, is everything OK?" "Yes Mr. Spock, her resistance was futile. I ass-imilated her. (smirks) Scotty beam me up."
Kirk doesn’t waste time discussing the finer points of the issue or ordering tea, Fire all phasers and photon torpedoes and if there were any female borg left he would have gotten with them too , Captain Kirk muy macho
You know in the original Star Trek RPG Kirk had a luck score of 98%? That meant once per campaign he could try any outlandish thing he wanted to try and have a 98% chance of succeeding on a die roll. Just a note Spock had a 17% luck Factor
Ah, the memories of TOS. Checkov's wig. Kirk's stunt double (this time wearing a yellow shirt instead of red). THe banter between McCoy and Spock. Sulu stating the obvious ("Direct hit," after the target blew up). It's all there in this mini-episode. Thanks for making this!
As a Star Trek fan, I am offended that someone would make a fake, put together, clip. Leave these original and classic movies along. What the hell is wrong with you?
Wow....he fired a transphasic torpedo. Kirk always knew JUST what to do. Despite the BILLIONS of deaths, he still has a big grin at the end of the episode.
I'm surprised that none of the spinoff shows have dealt with the doomsday device that Kirk and Decker fought in TOS. One of the books touched upon it that a civilization made it to fight the Borg.
In the first contact movie data informed jean luc that the cube had sustained heavy damage by the time enterprise showed up, it can be very easily assumed that the cube would have been destroyed not too long after, jean luc's attack was only a less costly way of destroying the cube.
I spotted 3 flubs. Uhura wearing green earings then gold earings, Scottys hair is combed to the side then combed straight back, chekov is replaced by a different navigator.
Lisa Godin Girl you need to RELAX. It's ALL fantasy for Christ's sake...like your mental image of a guy when you're using your vibrator. See my point? 😄😆😂🤣
If you read the Star Trek book "The Return", you'll find that after the events of the last movie, Kirk's body was stolen and re-animated by a Borg/Romulan alliance. Towards the end it is revealed that yes, V'Ger from the first movie was the origin of the Borg. Editing needs a bit of work, but excellent concept and well done overall. Good "episode". There is one caveat to that. Since Spock mind-melded with V'Ger in the first movie, he too would be recognized as Borg and the Enterprise would be spared in this episode.
He was considered assimilated, I believe it was in the book you mentioned... I don't know, maybe a different book, but I remember being flabbergasted by that fact some 25 years ago upon reading one Star Trek book or another.
Any hostile aliens stood no chance against Captain Kirk, he could outwit, outsmart and out tech them all. Then steal their girls if only for a night. What a guy!
@@oliveeisner8964 After all the decades, I am still amazed how good they pulled this off. Much better than in The Fall Guy, where they jump up and down on the seats after a car stunt.
It makes me wonder if the people commenting here actually think this is trying to pass for a "lost episode". Anyone can clearly see what was done, splicing, and a nice job too. I loved it! And to the nay sayers? "Get a Life!!!"
they may have lost the movie or the episode, but, for some reason they won't play it anymore or you cant find it anywhere. ive seen the actual movie , I'm not for sure but i do believe it was called uss enterprise v/s the borg the one with captain kirk. and this was the very first borg encounter, before the next generation.
Lisa Godin Bet u LOVE DUH Lord, tho. Mayb payin yo taxez. Gotz 2 build them roadz & pay 4 school, so azz da children, can learn themselvez, 2 spell better than me! SMH @ DUH stoOoOpidity
Meanwhile, as they celebrate and pat themselves on the back, directly behind the explosion and obscured from view, a Species 8472 ship heads back to fluidic space, after destroying the Borg ship! ...Lol
In TNG, the first hits from the Enterprise D did a lot of damage to the Borg, then they adapted. Kirk kept shooting rapidly and took them out before they could adapt.
Heres how the scenario plays out the far as I can see. the Borg after sweeping the civilians of the system, run into first Federation warship. At first they issue their declaration like they always do and then try to assess whether or not we were worth assimilation. While they're trying to figure it out Kirk simply bombards them until they are destroyed unlike Picard who gave them time to adapt. like Janeway said, in Kirk's day they were faster on the draw and a little more prone to disregard the prime directive.
bwuahahaha I watched that whole damn thing...... thinking I was going to get to see first version borgs you bastards! *shakes fist at anyrate thanks for the super hearty laugh
This could have gone on for a hour if you had the Borg capture and assimilate Kirk then have a Starfleet/Borg space battle that turns into a Kobayashi Maru situation with Borg Kirk saying: "You will ... ALL ........ be assimilated. Resistance is futile. THIS ! .... IS ! ... The no win scenario." Then more space battle, then Spock with a plan to rescue Kirk by beaming in right next to him and gives Kirk the Vulcan Death Pinch and beams back the the Enterprise with a knocked out Borg Kirk and then Spock mind melds with Kirk while the doctor figures out a way to beam out all the nanoprobes in Kirks system. Next scene, all is well. Bones insults Spock, Spock insults Bones while Kirk smirks in the captains chair. The End.
“Evasive maneuvers, Mr Sulu.” Ship remains stationary. “It’s…coming right for us. It’s going to hit!” “No shit, Sherlock. Maybe if you’d have employed those evasive maneuvers, like I told you to, we wouldn’t be a sitting duck!” “‘Sitting duck, Captain? And who is Mr Sherlock?” “Damnit, Spock! I’m a doctor, not a translator!”
Back when "photon torpedos" were fearsome weapons actually made of PHOTONS -- and didn't look like oversize suppositories laid on some sort of a conveyor belt by people in funny-looking suits....
LMAO I,m watching original again now and I often think of how they would be with the borg lol. Somehow i envision kirk with the borg queen and just sayin shut the frak up:)
When will they at last invent the seatbelts in Star Trek? The vessel never stops beeing shaked like a plum-tree, they are all constantly thrown out of their seats, and no, it is normal, no need to care about it ...
felix25ize In terms of real science, it's even worse. Assuming one could achieve faster than light speed, just the sudden change from zero to warp, or the reverse would hurl the crew into the nearest part of the ship, killing them quickly (and extremely messily) -- the writers were aware of this, and part of the artificial gravity system includes what they call inertial dampeners, which is supposed to negate that problem. Obviously the dampeners don't function perfectly in combat. It's likely the network wanted as much "action scenes" as possible. Another interesting question is how one would go about creating artificial gravity (the only way we know involves putting a ship into a spin, in which the crew would feel centrifugal (or centripetal) force, thus making the outer ring of the ship "feel" like down. But none of the ships in the Star Trek or Star Wars use such a system. And Bones is right to mistrust the transporters. Quantum Theory makes such a mode of transport impossible (or EXTREMELY unlikely). The writers did try to deal with this by creating fictional "Heisenberg 'compensators'" which are supposed to compensate for the inbuilt uncertainty principle in QM. The actual reason for the creation of the transporters was again, budget restrictions. Today, with CGI, one could easily show a shuttle descent to the surface. But special effects were very crude and expensive by today's standards. Because of these advances, all the TOS episodes were digitally remastered, and for exterior shots of the various ships, new CGI was created to give the series a chance to look more like the later series and movies. And they did it in a way that doesn't alter the stories.
felix25ize they did as shown once the Enterprise E was repaired in dry dock at the end of Nemesis. They updated the command chair and added a seat belt for the commander.
Yes, those confounded "inertial dampeners" always seem to fail at odd times. When functioning correctly, it's able to compensate for sudden inertial changes....but actually, when 'going to warp', the ship isn't itself moving. The engines create a 'warp bubble' The bubble would contract space-time in front of the ship, flow over the ship, then expand back to normality behind it. It's inaccurate to describe it as 'faster than light' speed in terms of 'jumping' and causing the crew to be hurled into the ship's bulkheads, etc. But sice we an create a warp field, and can manipulate space-time, then the same warp bubble could be manipulated in creating (artificial) gravity. As mankind of Star Trek's era are able to use anti-gravity, and anti-matter, it should be easy to create a gravity field for a ship the size of the Enterprise. As for the transporter, yea, the 'heisenberg compensators' were needed to deal with quantum theory. It also takes absolutely extraordinary amounts of memory to 'store' the data from a living being to transport as well. Here's a great discussion of the replicator and transporter memory requirements: scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/46057/how-much-memory-does-it-take-for-a-replicator-to-store-a-simple-object
Does any one else find it interesting that rather than performing evasive maneuvers they decide to keep heading directly into the mystery energy source and simply engaging their shields?
I also found it interesting that in the TOS timeline, mere photon torpedoes would take out a Borg cube...Not likely since after the first barrage, they would adapt their shields and assimilate Kirk's crew soon after. :-/
Ok. I know this video is 17 years old now, but I'm amazed at the number of people having a meltdown over it. It's great fun and fine for a circa 2007 creation. Plus, those of you complaining that its not Star Trek because the Borg never met the TOS crew, though that's technically correct, it also shows how much y'all don't get it. This is absolutely Star Trek. If any one could Mary Sue their way through a tough situation, it was Jim Kirk and Company. This is exactly how it would have played out. And if things had taken a turn for the worse, provided no one had preemptively stolen it, Spock's brain and Scotty's MacGyver skills would have engineered a solution from the onhand resources before the last commercial break, and you damn well know it. No two parter cliff hangers here. Kirk and crew were the Unstoppable Force and the Immovable Object combined right up to retirement. And we love them for that. Thats why the 23rd century stayed relativedly Borg free. Period.
Ask Mr. Scott verbally to send in a shuttlecraft set to overload its own warp drive put a Red Shirt (deceased of course) showing life signs (thanks to Dr. McCoy) and be done with them for this round anyway.
There was an odd new visions comic(the o ed they combine stills from the original series to make new stories)where the TOS crew run into an early version of the Borg. The big ship is like the sphere that comes out of the cube in first contact when the cube is destroyed. At the end you see Uhura saying to Kirk that the last transmission from the sphere was "resistance is futile"
this combined scenes from TNG but this episode was about the planet killer where they sent an old ship down its throat and self destructed it and it disabled the planet killer
Ah! -My first reaction was that it was the Giant Amoeba episode ("The Immunity Syndrome"), and that what they were gaping at on the viewscreen was a black expanse with no stars, but The Doomsday Machine makes sense. Very fun splicing job done there by statlerfilms!
This is cool, if anyone does another try creating a Borg design from a 1966 point of view. I'm guessing it would be more of a solid cube maybe large spots of bright red or green, maybe a Borg Cube that's has the curves of a 1958 Plymouth Fury.
