The Least Disliked 2023: Star Trek Movies

Reset. I'll vote again for Into Darkness.

Another vote for "Into Darkness." As I ranted at the time, what was the point of kick-starting a whole new universe just to immediately bring back the most iconic villain of the old? You have a new universe -- do something new!

Another vote for Into Darkness. I feel like there's half a good movie in there, but it's bogged down with bringing Kahn back. It needed to bring something more new to the table.

VERY happy to FINALLY kill INTO DARKNESS. Absurdly terrible movie, by far the worst of the 13. Unimaginable that it lasted the game this long.


My vote for the new round is 2009 STAR TREK. Despite it bringing in a new audience to reignite interest in the franchise, it is still the second worst movie of the franchise. Yes... worse than NEMESIS.

Generations. It's just kind of boring and generic feeling and the nexus plot really doesn't work very well.

I think I'll go with TMP now. I enjoy the first third and the general atmosphere, but it does become a bit of a slog with poor overall execution.

I'll go with Generations. Not bad until Picard enters the Nexus, then it just becomes confusing. Also, a somewhat random way to kill Kirk and the Ent-D.

I'm glad I get to kill GEN off. In the immortal words of Mr Plinkett, "Star Trek: Generations is the stupidest movie ever made."

I will go for TMP, then. It's just too damn long and not engaging enough to support that.

I liked TMP well enough. But the follow-up Treks were better.

My vote is for STAR TREK 09, just like last time.

And will continue to be until that absurd movie is rightfully eliminated. Cadet to captain that quickly, my ass. Damned hot rod for an Enterprise... ugggghhhh!

Exactly, ST2009 was a mess and still propelled JJ Abrams to eventually wreck Star Wars too. I am still pissed off they had the original Enterprise Klaxon in the trailer and not in the movie. I can say many other bad things about it but I'll stop here for brevity.

I'll finish off TMP, which I only enjoy as a historical curiosity. It's impossible to engage with as a film.

I'm sure I'll be alone in this, but I'll start the next round with a vote for Wrath Of Khan. I find it over-rated.

I've tried to come to it with fresh eyes so many times, too. I keep thinking the next rewatch is going to be the one where it clicks for me and I see what everyone else sees. Hasn't happened yet.

Then I will switch to 09. There's really a lot to like about 09 and I could've theoretically ranked it higher than a couple of the other remaining ones if it weren't for that incredible waste of an alternate universe (and in the dumbest possible way). Don't blow up Vulcan to prove you're not beholden to old Trek and then force *every* *single* character into their classic crew position by the end of the movie despite many of those career paths making no damn sense whatsoever. This ain't Star Wars, the crew are not destined for those specific jobs and nothing else.

I still wonder how good the sequel could've been with Captain Spock and Lieutenant Commander Kirk.

(Also, Leonard Nimoy's lines in this movie are just so terrible and that's an insult to the franchise in itself.)

I'll go with 09, despite really liking it. I enjoy the other films more.

I really got caught up in the Capt. Robau/George Kirk (swoon! :adore: :drool:) opener of 2009, but it went rapidly downhill from there, but at least it had that.

So I'm going with The Undiscovered Country again because I just can't understand how/why the main characters were treated so badly. An appalling movie (Martia was pretty cool, though)

Finishing off ST 09, because I think cadet to captain is just too much of a stretch.

Six movies remaining.
