Like last time, I'll copypaste my initial notes during viewing:

•Big collars
•Uhura wearing gold
•Sulu at the helm
•Love the remastered graphics
•Idea: Quincy, MD, but with McCoy. Also House.
•Lt. Bailey is a douche
•How foolish these guys look with their data chips and duotronic computer system!!!! Lulz
•I’d like it if Kirk always ate with his hands
•Jesus, this ship is about to be blown to bits and Rand is phasering up a pot of joe
•How damn fruity are those suede phaser belts
•Ron Howard might have Oscars, but he wasn’t in star trek
•I think this episode reminds us that although Kirk is a master tactician and warrior, he’s also an explorer at heart. Other commanders would have left, or blown up the scout ship.


I do agree that one of the main points to this episode was showing you that although this is the future and humanity is more advanced, humans haven't evolved that much. They still get scared and flight instinct kicks in and we're all animals, etc. etc. Bailey redeems himself at the end, which is meant to show that we can overcome our natural limits and reach new heights. But I stick to my guns: he's always kind of a douche,

I agree - he was hard to like.

Another thing - wouldn't he have returned and made a report - at least by the TNG timeline? Whatever happened to Balock and The First Federation?
