Nicholas Meyer's film "Star Trek VI: Insective Land" - Posted on December 6, 1991 - serves as a pretty clear metaphor for time politics. At the beginning of the film, the whole clingon moon, Praxis, was destroyed by a terrible mining disaster. The Clingon Empire was already in such desperate difficulties that this disaster risks overthrowing the entire government. The only way to save the Klingon Empire is to end its decades long cold war with the federation and to reach as a potential ally. This, of course, was a pretty direct symbol of the 1989 Berlin Wallid fall. It was also in the stroke of Lacquer Timing, a symbol of the subsequent collapse of the Soviet Union, which occurred only in the previous August. It was conscientiously from the screenwriters "Star Trek VI" essentially predicting the fall of the Soviet Union, as the script was written shortly before it happened.

When the Soviet Union fell, the decade-long Cold War with the United States ended, and it seemed-at least for a short, optimistic period-that Russia would become one of America's allies. We had a lot of hope in the late months of 1991, and that optimism was reflected in "Star Trek VI", a film that assumes that the Federation and the Clingonian Empire will really become allies after the signing of the peace deal. Those were just the old world's heat-vessels that could not withstand the thought to stop the fighting efforts-which tried to stop peace talks and immortalize the Cold War. The film's final saw the heat defeated.

Also As early as 2016, Meyer talked to IGNAnd he acknowledged that "Star Trek VI" is not only naive in this regard, but that Spack (Leonard Nimoy) has a moment of express cruelty he wants to be able to restore. Forcing the mind to Valeris (Kim Kattral)Meyer said, it was stricter than something Spack had to do.

As mentioned, "Star Trek VI" ends with a brave new world for the federation. Clingons were classically "bad guys" throughout the history of "Starwars", so turning into allies was considered a dramatic step forward for the franchise. Of course, the pink relationships with the clingons were already dramatized in Star Trek: The Next Generation, which has been set for almost a century outside the events of Star Trek Vi, so Trekis knew it was coming.

Meyer only had to tell the story of how that relationship began. However, he acknowledged that his optimistic view of the clingons - definitely parallel to the USSR - ended up far spraying in real life. As he said:

"Naetata doesn't make me true to win, but there are things that make me win. naive. We were extremely conscientious about what we predicted the Soviet coup before that happened. "

It should be noted that Meyer made these statements in late November 2016, shortly after Donald Trump was elected president (for the first time), and the scandals for Russian interference in the US election were plentiful. Meyer, as much as everyone could see that his views of the Russian allies in 1991 were not as complex as they could be.

Meyer's greater regret for Star Trek VI, however, includes a moment that includes Spack. Near the end of the film reveals that Spack's young protector, a volcano named ValerisHe had a relationship with assassination, concealment and plot to continue the Cold War. The details are very complex, and I wouldn't spoil them here. However, Spack learns about Valeris's involvement and presses for information. When she gets bothered, Spack forcibly performs the mind in order to get into the brain and read her thoughts. Valeris is very protected and also does not know all the details that Spack loves, so the scene with the mind becomes very intense. Valeris, to the end, looks like he is in great pain.

Relating the scene in 2016, Meyer felt that Spack seems to have essentially plagued Valeris to get information from her. That, the director feels, was unusual.

"I also think the scene where Spack makes a volcano, the mind joins Valeris to get water information about me, and doesn't make me very happy to see it. (...) It doesn't look like the right thing."

Asked if any of the directors thought the scene of the mind was a scene in torture in 1991, Meyer admitted that no one considered it. Spack, logical and peaceful character, I would not resort to torture. Maybe if Kim Katral was aimed at looking like it was not so much in pain, the curse would have been stripped of the scene, but she fueled and choked as if the brain was in the fire. It's pretty rough in retrospect. No wonder Meyer kind regrets it.
