[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] Okay, here is the low-down on the alleged TMP gaffe... [URL=http://flareupload.pleh.net/uploads/646/refit_windows.jpg]This[/URL] is how the windows were designed and assigned on the model by Probert.

[URL=http://movies.trekpulse.com/album/displayimage.php?album=160&pos=9]This[/URL] is what the "Officer's Lounge" miniature set and window views looked like in the film. [URL=http://movies.trekpulse.com/album/displayimage.php?album=161&pos=29]This[/URL] is what the set and window views of the room where Kirk and McCoy had their chat with Spock looked like in the film. The nacelles were added in the DE. As you can see, while the script stipulated the last scene to take place in the OL, it was the Rec Deck set (or something very similar) and window views that were used. Therefore, it seems to me that the conversation actually took place in one of the alcoves on the aft upper walkway of the Rec Deck and not in the OL. While the script said "OFFICER'S LOUNGE," that set was only a miniature and thus could not be shot with actors. When they did the DE, they placed a "camera" inside the upper Rec Deck windows of the CGI model and determined the nacelle views from there. This is confirmed by Okuda in the text commentary on the DVD. So, not really a gaffe, although a departure from the script. And it calls into question the logic of why the officers went all the way down to the Rec Deck instead of the (much closer to the bridge) Lounge. But since the set couldn't possibly depict the OL in the first place, the fault really lies in the original version. -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
