    The question isn't asked that often. I think it's often assumed that First Contact is universally popular. It's not - at least on here. We can be a contrary lot !

    Personally, I wish Undiscovered Country had been the last Trek movie...

    I liked and disliked First Contact. Yes, cool with the Enterprise having to go back in time to fight the Borg off before the destroyed humanity that never quite made it. No, because why would the Borg choose that time? Kind of a dumb, too convenient choice. No, Data and the Borg Queen was a stupid, redundant waste of time. Yes, yes, Zefram Cochran breaking the warp barrier and the Vulcan's arrival gave me chills.

    Agree with this completely!

    Loved my weekly fix of Star Trek. I've gone from having grown up watching TNG/DS9/VOY as well as the movies to now waiting ever few years for crap reboots.

    I have to give props to the OP, this one's actually a toughie.

    Unlike quite a few people around here, I actually quite enjoyed S7 of TNG, so a S8 might have been worthwile.

    Not only is trek best when on tv, it even feels like its on tv when you see it in a movie theater.

    I've disagree with that criticism even though it's one that gets tossed around in fandom a lot. With the exception of Insurrection all of the Trek films felt cinematic to me and possessed adequate scope.

    I can't find any redeeming qualities in Nemesis even though some people seem to.
