Star Trek 5: The Final Frontier (8/9) Movie CLIP - One Voice, Many Faces (1989) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Sybok (Laurence Luckinbill) leads Kirk (William Shatner), Bones (DeForest Kelly), and Spock (Leonard Nimoy) to a god-like figure, but the Captain has his doubts.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Kirk (William Shatner), McCoy (DeForest Kelley), and Spock (Leonard Nimoy) are enjoying a vacation in Yosemite National Park when duty calls. Vulcan cult leader Sybok (Laurence Luckinbill) and his followers have invaded a "planet of peace," where delegates from hostile races coexist in a sort of intergalactic United Nations. Ordered to quell the crisis, the Enterprise crew discovers that it's a ruse perpetrated by Sybok, who takes over the ship, piloting it toward the "Great Barrier," an energy field at the galaxy's rim. Sybok, who is revealed to be Spock's half-brother, possesses the ability to help people face their "inner pain." He also believes that God lies beyond the Great Barrier. Once arriving there, however, Sybok and the Enterprise crew discover only an imprisoned alien entity. Shatner wrote the story and made his directorial debut with the film, failing to ape the success that his colleague Nimoy enjoyed with his pair of Trek directing forays.

Just here to hear the infamous 2pac line: I couldn't help but to notice your pain, it runs deep, Share it with me!

1:25 Kirk to God : "Excuse me..." XD
The best moment of this movie, fun and right in Star Trek's spirit.

[frankdodd]

Very underrated film. The poor special effects and moments of awkward humor skewed the tone somewhat and gave it a bad rap, but it's the film that best explores the dynamic between Kirk, McCoy and Spock and has an old fashioned Star Trek ending: they wind up on a strange world talking to a false "god". That's why I love Kirk's incredulity when he asks "What does "god" need with a starship?".  He's seen it all before. A good film that was bashed because it wasn't the mainstream favorite that the fourth film was (which was clever, but a Trek film for non-fans really).

"What does God need with a starship?"

[dbloyd]

They really should have had Spock using a Tricorder in that scene. Having Spock just stand with this arms to his side was very unSpock.

[chrispeplinski]

I think despite the fact that William shatner got screwed with the budget and effects but he did the best he could.

[sychkid]

In this scene, the dialogue between Kirk and the "God" entity in the center of the Milky Way galaxy reveals the three attributes many people assume God to have, and how the "God" entity possesses none of the three.
"What does God need with a starship?" -Kirk casts doubt on whether the "God" entity is omnipotent
"Who am I? Don't you know, aren't you God?" -Kirk casts doubt on whether the "God" entity is omniscient
"Why is God angry?" -Kirk casts doubt on whether the "God" entity is omnibenevolent

[ISCREAM.STORE]

And thus we never did learn "what does god need with a starship?"

[vejet]

That's not proof, that's just blasting him away.

Plus as Jean Chretien so wisely put it; "A proof is a proof. What kind of a proof? It's a proof. A proof is a proof. And when you have a good proof, it's because it's proven."

[killahkazi]

I couldn't help but notice your pain. SHARE IT WITH ME!

[Zanyares]

The movie was terribly made, and yet it still has so much going for it, and this scene remains one of my favorite of all time.
Never be afraid to question authority, especially when the authority is afraid to answer.

[KeiFox]

I liked how immediately after Kirk got blasted in this scene, Sybok asked, "Why have you done this to my friend?" This showed Sybok's compassion, even for Kirk, who had been opposing him from the start. Sybok still considered Kirk a friend. Goes to show that he wasn't bad, just misguided.

[PNolandS]

Everyone’s cool until someone want’s to use Kirk’s starship.

[CaminoAir]

It's yet another problem with the script that Bones, despite having encountered several God like beings/aliens in the TV show, wouldn't have the same attitude that Kirk has.  At least Spock is left to hold his own counsel.  Shatner's ego allowed only himself to raise the question, when none of the three should have been overly impressed.

Love this scene. I remember watching it as a kid in theaters. If FREAKED me out

[Ben]

Fun Fact: Sean Connery was approached to play Sybok, but turned it down. So “God” aka Shakcory (however you spell) was a nod to Sean Connery.
The actor who played Shakcory, was in TNG, played the admiral in “The best of both worlds.”

[KingsportMan]

They sought infinite wisdom, but they got fifty questions instead.  That alien was dumber than a doorknob.  I think they blew it up with a laser beam.

[vilenationgaming]

He didn’t prove anything. He just blasted him. That was the ultimate deflection lol

[zooeyhall]

"Star Trek" meets "The Ten Commandments". The only thing missing was Charlton Heston with his robes and staff.

[ankhenaten]

*the story goes: the being inside the galactic barrier was a super powerful entity(q level) put in prison(the galactic barrier).*

*The galactic barrier was made by a species a trillion times more advanced than the prisoner inside the galactic barrier, this species also made the galaxy and is able to travel to ANY galaxy*

Also the being inside the barrier is q level and was imprisoned and mind wiped before earth existed, the being did not lie when it said it was god, it has the same powers q have and if outside the barrier it can do what q can and is essentially what humans perceive as a god, but it isn't THE CREATOR
