I have seen every kind of cockamamie thread on here. So I thought time for a Star Trek thread to discuss of course anything Star Trek. Now Trekkies and Trekkers Play nice!

Ok lets start off with what is your favorite Star Trek movie and why?

 

Idk

 

Star Trek 2 the wrath of Khon
Star Trek 4 the Voyage Home
Star Trek First Contact
O hell I'm am a hardcore trek fan I love most of them all

 

Oooo did I mention you are sexy id take a bit of you over 7 of nine

 

Not a Star Trek fan...never was but I laughed at the word "cockamamie".

Haven't heard that one for awhile.

 

The original and Next Gen. I met both William Shatner and Patrick Stewart in real life. Let me tell you, Patrick Stewart is one hell of a man ♥️

 

The Original is unmatched and stands the test of time to this day.

 

Movies: Star Trek II, my absolute favorite. Why?, great action and first time Kirk admitted is "ingenuity" failed and killed his friend and loyal comrade. It was a sort of counter to the whole TOS.

Star Trek VI second.

Star Trek V (a disaster), did that really happen?, or was it just a bad dream?

Watched the TOS as a kid (reruns late at night) and again on BBC in 2016. The 50th anniversary was shown uncut from original. Taped them all them changed services, All lost now.

 

In the UK 2 TV stations are showing Star trek various series i watch Next Generation from 5 to 6 in the evening then DS9 from 6 to 7 then Enterprise 8 to 9 at if I feel like it I can watch original series by missing DS9.This is Monday to Friday at weekends nothing

 

Tng is the best series by far

 

I watched all seasons of Voyager. Didn't see other ones (I was too young for some, and 'too old' and not interested to watch the newer ones). But I loved Voyager!!

 

The iconic characters keep The Original Series afloat. About 1/3rd of the episodes are poor to horrible.

The Next Generation (after Encounter At FarPoint) ran through a half-dozen miserable episodes before it found its footing. After that, the storytelling (and to a great extent, the acting) blew TOS away.

Deep Space Nine took a different tack and, while it did not quite match TNG for overall writing, was an amazing show that balanced comradery, deception, action and intellectualism better than any of the other series to this point.

Voyager suffered from poor characters. More than half the main crew members were uninteresting-to-boring-to-outright-annoying. There were some good stories, though, just not up to the standard of TNG and DS9.

Enterprise had much better characters, almost on the level of the first three series and overall very good writing. The series was worthy of a few more seasons, but its timing was poor because tv still did not understand the growing impact of original cable programming and it's "numbers" compared poorly to what had been expected of programs of five years earlier and beyond.

Discovery stretches the boundaries of what has come to be expected of Star Trek, and so far has been uneven, though getting better. It can sometimes be confusing and also annoying when it uses technology that was not available in their "future" (the eras of TOS, TNG, DS9 and Voyager).

The one season of Picard that I have seen was great, but it is too soon to compare it to the first five iterations, though it was better by far than Discovery's first season.

 

Yes, watching Morey and Judge Judy is more intellectual

 

Dont know if this is your first time in GD but Welcome, GD could use the new blood...pardon the pun!

 

Didnt watch DS9, Discovery of Picard, ...watched the other 3 so much on reruns cant watch 'em anymore. Favorite movie is First Contact.

 

You cannot vote for more than one so I will say ds9 but I was impressed by the first series of Picard.

The movies........

Wrath of Khan
Spock and Kirk save the whale.
Generations was underrated
First contact
The first one of the reboot.....love Karl Urban as McCoy.

I just love the tech talk.

thinskin

PS......Best episode however is the city on the edge of forever from the original series.

ts

 

My favourite episode of original series is Trouble with Tribbles its was a much lighter story funny in parts. The New Generation had a episode where they merged original series footage with New Generation and produced a very good story and technical you could not see the joins

 

My all time favorite Star Trek episode
"The city on the edge of forever"
Why? The acting, the storyline, the filming.
