Seriously, though. In my opinion, V is by far the worst TOS film, if not the worst of any Star Trek film (Yes, including Kelvin), yet it somehow nailed the ending.
Not to say I hated V that much. I think there’s some charm of Kirk, Spock, and Bones breaking out the brig, but the plot is catastrophically bad. I was also annoyed with that one scene with Uhura where they have her seduce some acolytes, which I feel is a disgrace to the character.
the last scene just as the view screen w sulu and the excelsior crew shut off and the camera switches the enterprise crew at their stations plus the empty station that sulu would have been in if he were still on the enterprise does it for me and when kirk orders “second star to the right and straight on 'till morning” gives me goosebumps every single time.
Also Spock’s “If I were human, I believe my response would be, ‘Go to hell.’ If I were human.” I love the dry wit we get out of old Spock from time to time.
