Most enjoy a Trek film even if they don't like the programme.

I think I know who's gonna get most votes. :smile:
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.

The Wrath of Khan is my favorite.  It's just a good movie, period, even if you've never seen or heard of Star Trek before.
Kneel before Dr. Hell, the ruler of this world!

All props to WRATH OF KHAN, but wow!!!

I just LOVED Star Trek:  FIRST CONTACT.

Best of the franchise for me.

Wrath of Khan.  Yeah, predictable, I know.  Just a great drama.  I really liked The Motion Picture as well.

I like Wrath of Khan, but it's too short.
Everytime I watch it, I can't help but think that it needs to be at least a half hour longer.

I voted for Undiscovered Country.
It has an extremely engaging story and it is an important turning point in the Trek universe timeline.   :thumbup:

I'm surprised the Voyage Home hasn't gat any votes yet. The bonkers story's great !

Not a big fan of STAR TREK movies. I LOVED the original series,though...and WRATH of KHAN had more of the old Trek feel to it than any of them.

"Wrath Of Khan" and "First Contact" are my personal favourites although "The Undiscovered Country" is almost as entertaining.
There are few things more beautiful than a sporting montage with a soft-rock soundtrack

Wrath of Khan is the sequel to a ST episode called Space Seed :smile:

Star Trek The Motion Picture:
I saw this when I was 12 and I enjoyed it very much. The visuals made me go wow then and now. I have never seen the Director's Cut, btw.

Star Trek 11 The Wrath of Khan
Great film, I cried like a baby at the end.

Star Trek 111 ~ The Search For Spock
"Jim.....your name is Jim....." ~ I got goosebumps when Leonard Nimoy said that line. Great film too ~ I was always wondering what Dame Judith Anderson was doing in this and I asked my Dad if it was the same actress who played Mrs Danvers in Hitchcock's "Rebecca": he said it was, so  :thumbup: to Dame Judith.

Star Trek IV ~ The Voyage Home
Loved it ~ I cried in the cinema when the whales are released and the crew go beserk, jumping into the water.

Star Trek V ~ The Final Frontier
I loved the start with the laughing Vulcan ~ that got me good. But those kak visual effects.............  :buggedout: :buggedout: :buggedout:

Star Trek V1 ~ The Undiscovered Country
Great film ~ that mind-rape scene made me go  :buggedout: though.

Star Trek: Generations
:bluesad:

Star Trek: First Contact
The Queen of the Borg played by South African actress Alice Krige ~ her home language gave birth to the TREK part of Star Trek.  :smile:

Star Trek: Insurrection
Yawwwwnnnn......"Lost Horizon" anyone?

Star Trek Nemesis
Great beginning, Marina Sirtis in a negligee, great visuals, villain trying to out-Khan Khan Singh, Marina Sirtis in a negligee, two Datas, imagining the entire male crew naked  :buggedout: and, if I didn't mention it before, Marina Sirtis in a negligee.  :cheers

The new Star Trek film: I am awaiting this release. I hope it will be good, now that Rick Berman has had his butt kicked off the lot.
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

I mistakenly bought the director's cut - I like the original better.  They toss in some extra effects, like when they're sitting in the Captain's quarters and you can see out the window towards the back of the ship, the added the warp nacelles which are pointed inward at about a 45% angle.  I dunno, that may (or may not) be correct as far as the perspective is concerned, but it just looks goofy.  They took out one of my favorite lines, Sulu saying "The new shields held".  They took out some of the long scenes of V'ger as the enterprise flew over it;  I guess most people thought that went on too long, but personally I loved it.  I mean, they come across this incredibly mysterious, incredibly powerful thing, I was fascinated and could have spent all day looking at it.
