Nice to see you in action one more time, Captain Kirk.

ACTING!

Oh and the assassin ends up being Colonel West in the non-theatrical version

Scotty barehandedly knocking that door down and shooting the assassin remains the funniest thing ever.

Oh yeah, the aspect ratio is different in the director’s cut too.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

memory alpha states the bluray release was the correct AR, but all prevous versions were the lower one, and also the director’s preferred shot. also allowed more space for hardcoded subs.

Speaking of set redresses, this is a good reuse of the TNG conference room set. The adding of lighting/ceiling art and not lighting the Enterprise-D windows in the back hide the origins of this set well enough, and if this was shot between season 4-5 for tng, that’s when they wheeled out the Bronze Spaceships and replaced it with “ribbed light vents” (thanks memory alpha)so plenty of time to add their own set flourishes there with the bulkhead panels and painting. oh and obvs the ubiquitous tall pink chairs are gone along with the black panel and woodgrain table, replaced with drab versions. the lighting element in the last pic woul show up again in the Enterprise-B and I think as part of Voyager’s set design in general?

my favourite subversion of this trope.
