But it turns out there’s less to the Klingons than meet the eye in some scenes. According to a snippet of making-of footage which turned up online recently, some of the Klingons were actually little kids in Klingon costumes, shot from angles to make them look like grown-ups, so the sets would look huge.

Star Trek will be out on DVD Nov. 17. [Borders]
