What about that whole thing about even numbered trek films don't suck. Nem killed that one.
The Pattern Of 9 Says Trek XI Will Fail
- Thread starter The Wormhole
- Start date
It was obvious nonsense long before anyone had even conceived of Nemesis -- the same sort of idiot numerology which holds that celebrity deaths always happen in threes.
Not reading any further, your logic is already flawed. I used to feel quite alone in my love of TMP, the movie that made me a lifetime ST fan - but it's star has been revived in recent years and your claim of "very few supporters" is not correct.
Not just celeb deaths, all deaths happen in threes.
Well, there goes my whole belief system..
I need to dust off my chart of the comparative grosses, adjusted for inflation.
Not sure to what you're referring, but the (
As for worst? Meh. Stick around -- there's much better (and worse) every day than anything I see going on in this thread.
(Emphasis mine)
Take the numbers individually:
3 x 7 =21
21 - 2 = 19
I think something profound's just happened here.
Incidentally, the UK release for Insurrection was 1st January 1999. QED.
Regardless of the year Trek XI (Roman numeral for 9 in reverse, you see) is released, it's going to take a lot more than its release date to affect its quality. The number of nacelles appearing in the film will also have a direct impact. I'm still quite looking forward to it though
In the meantime, I've got a little under six months left to prove that all 9s equal 47...

Yeah, screw numerology. This isn't a bad theory, but I'll stick to interpreting the Rorschach patterns contained within my used Taco Bell wrappers, thank you very much. What? It has a proven higher degree of success.

You are indeed not alone, good sir! Although I still think Billy Van Zandt's scene should have been left cut out.

Hey, the guy deserved a closeup and a line to compensate for three months of 5am starts in foam latex makeup and yellow contact lenses.
Yeah, Nemesis was the first trek movie I saw in theatres. There was a giant cardboard ship from Galaxy Quest in the main lobby. I think it was called the Protector. It looks like a TNG combadge.
Overall.......Hmm.. I would say it's not that big of a deal.
^ Like I said, you're attitude is brilliant. People should just chill and stop worrying because yeah, what's the big deal?
I liked TMP though its doesn't measure up to others (excluding the terrible NEM & FF).
Guess what, folks? I found more proof to back up the Pattern of 9. Star Trek Insurrection was the ninth Trek film, and it was not a very popular one. Didn't really do too well at the box office, isn't really held in high regard by fans.
I'm telling you, the number 9 is cursed.

Umm DS9 was a great series. It ended in 1999. So I think I just debunked that theory. ST11 will be a success.
TPM was worst Star trek movie IMHO...
I liked the Voyage Home most, first contact, undiscovered country and Insurrection after that
