Alright, your top three movies.
- Thread starter Brer79
- Start date
In FC it was never explained how Worf was supposed to keep a low profile on an Earth where no one had ever seen a Klingon, given that the first Klingon ever to appear there was the one in Broken Bow...
But "Broken Bow" is set in 2151, right? First Contact is like nine decades earlier.
Precisely, so (in case of Picard blowing up the ship) it would have been hard for Worf to live on Earth without changing history in innumerable ways.
Ohhh! Gotcha.
I'm going to have to revise this. In light of revisiting the Kelvin Films.

Not just Worf: I'm sure there were many other alien crew members. I'd love a shot of a Horta or Phylosian crewmember reacting to Picards "stay out of histories way" order.
1. First Contact - The only TNG movie that truly excels. It's got a great story that adds more layers to the ST universe, a phenomenal soundtrack, fantastic action sequences and drama and some top-class performances. Stewart in particular is on fire as a traumatised Captain Picard. The Enterprise-E looks amazing on its first outing and the Borg have never been more intimidating.
2. The Wrath of Khan - The best of the TOS era movies. Splendid old-school models and visuals, a dynamic soundtrack, lovely uniforms, a great story and superb final act. Possesses a maturity that washes away some of the campiness of the TOS series. And the ending is inspired.
3. The Undiscovered Country - No surprise that this too was directed by Nicholas Meyer. It's the ultimate Klingon movie and a spectacular final mission for the old crew. Shatner is at his best once again and the movie boasts a maturity that some of the other films lack.

Top three:
1. First Contact - action packed, exciting, visually stunning, and the story of the beginning of the Trek future with first contact is really heartwarming. Guest cast are wonderful, music is great. Can rewatch this one endlessly.
2. The Wrath of Khan - one of the best submarine movies out there and it's not on a submarine. Iconic for good reason, this is the best TOS movie and a model for countless less good Trek stories to follow.
3. The Voyage Home - a change of pace and a lot of fun, this one showed that you don't need a cackling villain to do a good Star Trek movie, something I wish they would try again.
Undiscovered Country takes the 4th spot. A brilliant political thriller for three quarters of its run that falls a bit flat on its too-simplistic ending.

I don't think a Horta could be a passenger on a star fleet starship, let alone a member of the crew. Btw, if I remember correctly, there were no civilians on board at that time.

Why?
Well, what if a Horta is sleepwalking and without knowing it digs a hole through the hull of his ship?
Do Horta sleep? If so I am sure Starfleet can be accommodating in some measure for such a slight issue, since sleep walking appears to not be much of an issue in Star Trek any way.

Everybody sleeps, even plants go through dormancy cycles. That seems to be a universal trait of life.
