    Day 4 – Underrated Episode

    "Star Trek V - The Final Frontier".
    Such an underrated piece of Star Trek. This film is the probably most philosophical episode of Star Trek. It asks an interesting question: What would we be without our pain? I for one would do perfectly well without it, I do not need it at all. I don't know what Kirk is babbling about. But I guess we are all different. I find it interesting that McCoy is so troubled by his past and thus so open to what Sybok has to offer, and that Spock as managed to find peace through his Vulcan ways, and that Kirk has made peace through accepting that pain and is thus able to use it to his advantage.
    Sybok's methods are not only highly questionable, they are condemnable. He does not ask of consent, he takes a city by force and its leaders as hostages, he takes a star ship. What he does is awful. His goal is not, but his methods are, and that's why he's wrong. His longing for peace and answers is deeply human I think. But there are other ways to reach them (see Spock, and even Kirk). In the end he realises what he's done and does the only thing he can: try and free the being from its pain.
    My mind is so full of thoughts after each time watching this film, I do not even know where to start thinking about them.
    The film is also very funny. So many great lines. The scene between Uhura and Scotty in sick bay is cute.
    The visual effects aren't very good, yes. But they had an acutal flying/ moving shuttle, how cool is that!?

    Shoutout to "Unexpected", Enterprise S1E05. The visual effects of how the alien ship feels like for the humans is so cool. I wished we would see more of things like that. The thing of Trip's pregnancy and how he got pregnant is a completely different discussion that I do not want to have right now. But I often feel that for all that pregnancy stuff the really cool and unique bit gets totally forgotten.

  4. To celebrate our fiftieth episode, we break from our usual format to record an audio commentary for Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, arguably the least successful Star Trek film, but not without its charms (and an especially charming Vulcan!).

    We’ll return with more Subspace Radio when new Trek returns to our screens in April for Star Trek: Discovery’s final season. Until then, see you 'round the galaxy!

  6. Secret of the #StarTrekV #Bridge: what makes it unique?

    "In 1989's '#StarTrek V: The #FinalFrontier', we were introduced to a new-look #Enterprise bridge. It was one with a unique feature. In this video, we will look at this bridge and uncover the nature of that unique feature."

  7. Kirk: "I lost a brother once. I was lucky. I got him back"

    McCoy: "I thought you said men like us don't have families"

    Kirk: "I was wrong"

  8. Sybok: "Why did you do it?"

    McCoy: "To preserve his dignity"

    Sybok: "That wasn't the worst of it"

    McCoy: "Not long after, they found a cure. A goddamn cure!"

    Sybok: "Release this pain. Release it! This pain has poisoned your soul for a long time"

  9. McCoy: "Maybe it didn't cross that macho mind of yours, but you should've been killed when you fell off that mountain"

    Kirk: "It crossed my mind. And, even as I fell, I knew I wouldn't die. I've always known....I'll die alone"

  10. Sybok: "Each main hides a secret pain. It must be exposed and reckoned with. It must be dragged from the darkness and forced into the light. Share your pain. And gain strength from the sharing"

  11. In #StarTrekV: The Final Frontier, the late great Nichelle Nichols played Uhura in a scene of her doing a fan dance while singing a song. All her fans knew that she sang and was thrilled to learn that Uhura would be singing in the film, but unfortunately, it was dubbed over, despite initially being promised to be her voice.

    In the latest episode of #StrangeNewWorlds, #SubspaceRhapsody, Uhura, and by extension, Nichols, is vindicated by Celia Rose Gooding performing the best numbers.

  12. Not one of my favorite #StarTrek movies, but this scene was pretty powerful.

    Sybok: "That wasn't the worst of it"

    McCoy: "Not long after, they found a cure. A goddamn cure!"

    Sybok: "Release this pain. Release it! This pain has poisoned your soul for a long time"
