    Is that the official name? What does the 4th one have to do with Genesis?

    It's the epilogue to the affair, where the crew deals with the political and legal fallout from the Genesis incident. No, it's not directly about Genesis, but the trilogy as a whole is set in motion by Genesis, so it's as good a blanket title as any.

    I think there are better names out there. Like @F. King Daniel I also thought they were talking about the novels. :)

    Like what? The Spock Dies and Gets Better Trilogy? The Khan-Kruge-Probe Trilogy? Genesis is the one thread that links all three movies, just differently in each one. The CGI Genesis simulation footage is even used in all three movies.

    It's sometimes called, like in IDW's omnibus and in at least one DVD set, "Motion Picture Trilogy," which always seemed pretty vague and open to confusion, especially now that there are three Kelvin timeline films.

    The Spock thread is shown in all 3 movies. Maybe the name lies there.

    "Spock" is way too generic a title for anything in Trek. But those three movies are the only things that feature Genesis as a story point, and all three of them do to some degree, so "Genesis Trilogy" is easily the most natural and straightforward title. I really don't understand the objection.

    Not just Spock on his own. Needs a few more words. The fall and Rise of Spock trilogy maybe but it’s a bit wordy

    I initially thought this was about the Genesis Wave books as well. I guess I'll be curious to find out whether this book is worth picking up.

    It will be mostly a compile of previous articles and photos from Titan's "Star Trek Magazine" issues. Other volumes have sometimes added a new item or two.
