Title: Voyager is short on SFX
Review: Yes, I am a big fan of Voyager. Their stories drive the show. But I am a bit unsatisfied with their special effects. The ship is cruising along at warp 6, and the stars, viewed, say from the mess hall...are not moving. How is this to be believed? The same thing happens in the shuttlecraft. Outside the window, the stars are stationary. These SFX shortcuts do not promote the reality of the show. Also, spacecraft are reused for different episodes (for different aliens), and the same matte paintings for different planets are reused for other worlds. Like I said, the stories are mostly good, but the space effects are lacking. Perhaps the series could benefit from remastering.
Is the review positive or negative?
