Does anybody else dislike the CGI?


I like that they remastered the series for HD but everytime they show an external CGI scene it just seems out of place.

The reworked effects are, for the most part, pretty cool. What sucked about those "enhanced" versions is that they removed large chunks of the episodes themselves. I don't know if they fixed this on their second release but it was a dealbreaker for me on the first.

I like most of the CGI. As others have said, the ships and planets look more believable..

But they got carried away sometimes, I think. For example, they invented a whole new mini-scene in "Amok Time," showing the wedding party approaching Kunat-Kalifi through a landscape that wasn't even hinted at in the rest of the episode. They were supposed to be tweaking the "look" of the original, not making stuff up!
