was rewatching Trek V w @kiranerys and compared to VI, V barely puts any effort in redressing TNG sets (and some of those are they themselves repurposed from earlier movies). Usually I'll just point out the hallways,
which aside from hastily put on panels to cover the black LCARS screens and the change in turbolift cars, the rest is the same (no money to change signage on the door, carpeting,.....)
VI does a smart attempt by adding some overhead pipes and hatchways and a different lighting scheme to make it more claustrophobic.
(does it mesh with wider hallways of of wrath of khan? no. but it gets the job done).
Even the transporters get a decent redress with the blast shield and removal of the isolinear stack (and the 88-89 need for neon accents on everything)
(as covered here in more detail)
Anyhoo, all of this preamble to say that, since my childhood was watching these movies in 4:3 and V is the one I revisit the least, I didn't notice until this watch that when Scotty wakes up in Sickbay the okudgrams behind him are the TNG ones:
Something theatre audiences would see but not television ones as that would be entirely cropped out.
just hilarious that's all. Trek movies would continue to pass sets back and forth to each other as the movies kept going on but trek vi does a better job including the TNG sickbay:
(shhh it's dark so you can't tell we didn't change much and we have the right consoles above the biobeds)
The President's Ten Forward:
snazzy dark Conference room
(the glass hides the shape of the windows)
