    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In the opening credits, there is a six-second-long pause between William Shatner and DeForest Kelley's names, where Leonard Nimoy's name would normally be. It's only one second between each of the other names.
    • Goofs
      [27:49]When Kirk checks the video logs to find the keeper of Spock's katra, the timestamp reveals that Spock melded with McCoy on stardate 8128.78. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982) begins on stardate 8130.3.
    • Quotes

      [Witnessing the destruction of the Enterprise]

      Kirk: [1:15:58] My God, Bones... what have I done?

      McCoy: What you had to do, what you always do. Turn death into a fighting chance to live.

    • Crazy credits
      Leonard Nimoy is credited as director in the opening credits, but is not included in the cast list. There is a long gap between the names of William Shatner and DeForest Kelley, which lasts for the length of time Nimoy's name would have been displayed.
    • Alternate versions
      Some network broadcasts are noticeably truncated. In particular, the scene where Kruge destroys the female mercenary for looking at the Genesis information is deleted. The scene ends instead with the two characters expressing love for each other. The scene where McCoy refers to "that green-blooded son-of-a-bitch" is also censored.

    Not the best yet not the worst

    Star Trek 3:The Search for Spock is well done movie it just doesn't stand out. I do admit Leonard Nimoy is good director. Look out for Taxi's Christopher Lloyd as the Klingon captian Kruge. I give this movie a 3 out of 5.

    FAQ40

    • How long is Star Trek III: The Search for Spock?Powered by Alexa
    • If Genesis resurrected Spock, why couldn't it do the same for David?
    • Why was the captain of the Grissom so shocked, and for that matter, the crew of the Enterprise surprised when the Klingon Bird Of Prey decloaked? They knew about cloaking technology. They learned about it in The Enterprise Incident (#3.2) on the original series
    • Why does Star Trek III look cheaper than Wrath of Khan yet cost more?
