Hey now, Final Frontier had MANY generally funny moments. Pretty much every scene of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy bickering throughout the film is gold, and the bit between Chekov, Sulu, and Uhura when they're lost in Yellowstone was brilliant. Also, "B. As in barricade." Shatner was pretty unfairly maligned for this one, as he was severely hamstrung by studio interference and budget cuts. By many accounts the cast actually enjoyed working under his direction, as well (which is remarkable considering the animosity between Shat and most of the cast at the time).
It might have been a slot or two lower than it could have been - but they rightfully had the unneeded Khan Reboot and all the Next Generation films other than First Contact lower than it. I would have slid The Slow Motion Picture down a little further. That film drags and drags and drags....
Dark does not mean deep.
I've always thought the Star Trek movies were awful. Like, pretty much every one of them.
While I'm not a Trek fan, a trilogy of Wrath of Khan, Search for Spock and Undiscovered Country is all I need to keep me happy viewer on a weekend afternoon.
never mind...
In my heart of hearts, First Contact is the best, followed by Wrath of Khan. Haven't seen the majority of the OS movies, though.
Even though I know they're not the best, I still can't help but like Nemesis and Generations, and I think both of those are better than Into Darkness.
What can I say but, "I love comics."
I agree that Search for Spock doesn't get enough credit, but Christopher Lloyd is awful in that movie. And the whole "proto matter" thing is just lazy writing. Anyone who gives it a pass but moans about Khan's "super blood" is wearing blinders. Also, Final Frontier belongs at the bottom of the list. It's an ego trip, an expensive way to fulfill the terms of Shatner's contract. It's badly written, poorly directed, the effects are terrible, and it contains more terrible moments than Insurrection and Nemesis combined. That fan dance is all the proof you need Shatner doesn't know anything about logic or good storytelling.
Speaking of Shatner, watching him act alongside Stewart in Generations is like watching the Generals play the Globetrotters. The only thing more embarrassing is watching him play against himself in The Undiscovered Country. Nothing like watching one person give two terrible performances in the same scene.
the 5 first are the 5 best ...
but
for me best are in that order (from the way i like to see them again and again and ... )
1 Undiscovered Country
2 First Contact
3 Home
4 JJ Abrams
5 Khan
Generations and then
Search, Lloyd is far from his role in BTTF... but the film still remains just above insurection, and Final Frontier
only saw into darkness 2 times..and its only a popcorn movie, not a star trek film... and i never got into star trek the movie.
I would place nemesis on the same rank as into darkness.
I've noticed lately that CBR is experimenting with clickbait articles like this one. Why?
