O.K. Don't know if this has been asked before but which Star Trek movie do you like best?
Comments are welcome! :thumbsup:

I like several of these movies, but I'll go with the one that I have not gotten tired of viewing, even after seeing it 30+ over the last 15 years.

Time is a luxury you do not have.

There she is. There she is! Not so wounded as we were lead to believe...

But like a poor marksman, you keep missing the target

Gotta go with El Gato on this. I too like several of the Trek films but none hold my attention like Wrath of Khan. Great space battles. Khan's obsession with destroying Kirk. Spock's death. Kirk finally meeting his son. This is just good stuff.

From Hell's heart, I stab at thee!

For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!

We like the one on HGTV. "Star Trek: Generation Renovation" hosted by Gaard Swanson and Patrick Stewart. In it, they try to refit this home into the Enterprise:

Uh, I hate to be the one to tell you this El Gato but STII is close to 25 years old not 15. :tongue:

It could be he didn't see it for the first time until 1991.

Phrank,
My thoughts, exactly. I took it to mean that Gato has seen the film more than 30 times over the past 15 years. Not that the film came out 15 years ago. No where does Gato claim the film was released in 1991.

I like several of these movies, but I'll go with the one that I have not gotten tired of viewing, even after seeing it 30+ over the last 15 years. Yup. There are three that count as my favorites, with others which have memorable bits (Christopher Lloyd re-inventing the Klingon personna!!!), but nothing beats WOK for being a stand alone, well-made movie ...completely aside from being Trek. If Paramount had made no other Trek movie, I would remain satisfied.

WOK is also one of the few Trek movies where the characters are consistently honest and actually relate to each other as real people do (except maybe the super-people, they're a little screwed up, but it works). Ironically, as much as it is generally well thought of, I think Undiscovered Country is the worst for character honesty and relationships.

Small nit: it's led. ;)

That's my favorite, too. It is the climax of the original crew's adventures.

Ding ding ding! We have winners. I wasn't an ST fan when WOK was released. After I became a Trek fan (around 85), I still didn't see it because my dad was too cheap to rent it (or he had something against the movie because it didn't have cowboys in it, one of the two) and throughout the 80s we were too poor to have premium cable (the first time I "saw" WOK was through an HBO-scrambled signal). I didn't see it for the first time in clarity until 89-91 (it's somewhere in that time frame) when I bought the movie on VHS.

Small nit:....

Are there big nits? What's the biggest ever? What's the smallest ever? What's an average size nit?

:lol:

It's a relative term. As you approach the speed of light the nits get bigger until they actually encompass the entire universe. :freak:

Ok, I stand corrected then.
By the way, what exactly is a "nit"?

It's a kind of wit.

Awwwhhh, c'mon now lets not get nit picky. :p

Along with it's siblings, dim and half.

Gurls nit sweaters for their pet cooties.

I've never heard of them being called "pet cooties" before. :confused: I knew a girl who had really huge pet cooties. They really spread out the weave of the sweater around them.

http://www.laokay.com/lathumb/laphoto/Lautner10.jpgSeems a better candidate for remodeling as the Jupiter II. BTW, I assume we all know the famous "Chemosphere House" was featured in a 1964 Outer Limits episode and in Body Double with Melanie Griffith — but does anyone know exactly what a "chemosphere" is?

Getting somewhat back on topic, I think Nicholas Meyer deserves a special Academy Award for getting a relatively restrained performance out of William Shatner in not one, but two Trek movies.

looks like a landslide for STII:TWOK. no real surprise either. and a case where "favorite" and "best" match pretty well.

i'd have to put "contact" way up there too. certainly the best of the lot with the TNG crew.
