Let us not forget those battle scenes.  Now, most of the torpedoes
and phasers never hit the ships, but the ships are always shaking
from the 'turbulences of the explosions' -- the explanation given
was that it would be boring to just have the ships sitting still
until they were hit (which is what they SHOULD be doing)  Actually,
I think it's riotous to see bodies flying around the bridge and
good ol' JTK just sitting nice and comfy, turning around a bit
in his chair!
