In my opinion, Star Trek IV, was the best

Mine it's a toss up. I love all the even numbered ones. If I had to choose a favourite, I think it would be Star Trek VI. The story just sucked you in and you just couldn't get enough of it. The intrigue, the anger. It was amazing. I loved it. But like I said, it would still be a tough choice, because each movie had their stellar moments.

I just had a hard time getting into the 5th movie. but I felt that way about the 1st, 3rd and 7th also. It felt almost too preachy to me.

Well, I know. But I guess the humor in the 4th one overshadowed that a bit. I liked the 6th one alot. also the 2nd one. Wasn't crazy about Generations. But liked those after that.

It didn't with me either. I think it's because in my way of thinking the characters were all unrecognizable. They were just not what I remembered. So I couldn't get into it.

I got in to it real good, because the TNG crew was in it, the first movie with them in it, It had to be that way so the baton could be passed to the TNG crew. It was the first TNG made for the BIG screen not TV,it would BE different...

Oh, I didn't forget First Contact. I loved that one. I loved every TNG movie with the exception of Generations. I just couldn't get into it. I know I sound like a broken record, but the Chars were just unrecognizable to me. Even Kirk. The only ones that were really good in that one were Chekov and Scotty. But that is just my opinion.

Data's emotions weren't what bothered me. I had a hard time with him being frozen in terror when Geordie had been abducted. I don't think he would have done that. Unless there was something else affecting him. Which I don't think there wasn.

I love the idea of Data having emotions and looking at it through his eyes. That was just the coolest thing. In the end I've said before, it boils down to the chars being unrecognizable. I just figured it out! The comaraderie wasn't there. It was missing in Generations. I couldn't verbalize it until now. There was something missing in that movie and now I know. That was it. The interactions weren't right. They didn't fit. In the show, you got a real sense of loyalty. Of family with the TNG cast of Chars. In my opinion it wasn't there in Generations. The subsequent movies, probably because of Jonathon Frakes, it was most definitely there. It was like visiting an old friend with  First Contact, Insurrection, and Nemesis. In Generations, it was looking at a group of strangers and not knowing how to feel.

I hope that explains it a bit better.

Comraderie? Thats a word? LOL, anyway that it the missing link to make the movie great like all the rest. Everyone had their own situation going on and none of them were interacting with each situation. Example, Picard on ground and Ship in space. No connection. Usually there would be an extra person or radio contact or something but there was no link. It was a very (no offence) poorly constructed or thought out movie.

Star Trek Generations--2293-then they cut to-2371.

Above are the dates, half of the movie is TOS, and the other half is TNG. I think they jump back and forth a little. I can see how that would be confusing...

It's not really just that. The time shifting isn't a big deal. You just don't have the closeness of the TNG crew in Generations that you had in the series. It's almost like seeing a bunch of strangers on screen. It's even that way when they interact with each other. That's what I didn't like about it.

It's going to have it's slow times, all groups and sites do. But they are only temporary and posting will increase. There is so much yet to be tapped into and discussed. Plus don't forget there are the news topics that can start some nice interesting discussions. The site will endure, of that I have no doubt.

Insurrection was awesome, but I was bothered by it. Now how could you live on a planet filled with water, and live there for 400 years, and not be able to swim? This really botherd me because it would seem like common sense for someone to swim on a planet filled with water. If anyone can add, please do.

I'm finding it depends on my mood which i like the best. I think of the original cast movies it's number 6 for the newer ones I think First Contact as well. But in general I liked them all.

I was never a big fan of TOS, thus I don't like the movies as much as I liked TNG movies. The SFX and the whole time travel thing, really caught my attention

First Contact, because it was just AWESOME, and Star Trek VI, because that was a good allegory for the U.S. and Russia.
