IV was preachy as hell, even back in the day seeing it at the theater, but it was still a great one.

Yeah, I thought The Undiscovered Country was second only to Wrath of Khan.

<smh> You guys kill me.

The even-numbered movies were great. II was by far the best. I liked IV and VI equally but thought VI was an excellent send-off for the main cast, and liked how it dovetailed into the back end of TNG.

The odd-numbered ones were weird (I), dull (III), or just plain stupid (V).

The TNG movies weren't all that great. I thought most of them were very disappointing. First Contact is probably the best one with Nemesis being Star Trek V levels of retarded.

3 was great! It had some of the best moments of all the movies!

If you can watch this without tearing up, you have no soul

I think my most difficult hurdle for III was seeing Saavik as some other chick that looked like a dried-up MILF porn queen. It's a shame that Kirstie couldn't reprise her role; godDAMN she was hot. Even fat Kirstie was hawt. Hell, 65-year-old Kirstie puts a lot of chicks half her age to great shamefrul!

I did like Christopher Lloyd as the Klingon, but in all honesty, the dude is a comedian, and I just couldn't take him seriously. There was a comedian in the 80s (Maurice LaMarche, I think) who did a GREAT Chris Lloyd as a Klingon impression...wish I could find a video of it but can't..."Kirk, you won't give me the Genesis Device? ... Okey doke!"  :2funny:

III was very underwhelming, but I will begrudgingly say of the three odd ones, it's probably the better of the three.

Fat Kirstie Alley was not hot. She stopped being hot a few seasons before Cheers ended.

Christopher Lloyd was an odd choice for a Klingon, but no more so than Christopher Plummer was in VI.

I guess I can give you that. I'd forgotten about the scene actually, so maybe I don't have one after all.

But then there's this:



Data's "Oh shiiit" moment was probably the only time that movie actually elicited a response from me.  ;D

BanzaiCat

I will say this: THIS scene still manages to put a chill up my spine when the music crescendos as the Reliant is coming right at the viewer.

I've always wondered why Frakes never did anything else. He was great as Riker.

BanzaiCat

Yeah he was, once he grew the beard.  ;D

They didn't age too gracefully though. Well...maybe Marina Sirtis did.  :smitten:

mirth

I don't think he's had to do anything else. And his wife is pretty much all set too. They summer in Maine and enjoy life.

Oh well hell, summering in Maine explains it all  ;)  It's a good life though, make your mark and retire while you're still young. At least he didn't end up like Nick Cage.
