Well, there *was* a "remember" scene in STII.  It was the subject of much
discussion in this group about the possibility of Spock's jumping over into
McCoy's body and using it for awhile.  This was also tied to the statement
McCoy made at the funeral: Spock is not dead as long as we remember him.

However, I would be interested in hearing from someone who is in a position
to compare the two films.  It appeared to me (but maybe in the two years
since the last film my memory lost some of its accuracy) that Spock's
manoever in the STIII *remember* scene was more pronounced (a more complicated
Vulcan hand position) than what was shown in STII.  It now appears so
telegraphed that it is hard to believe that anyone could have missed the
significance of the event.  On the other hand, with so much happening in
STII at the time, it might just have appeared as just one more detail in a
complicated sequence of events.

Can anyone compare these two films and let this group know the results?
