What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

[Tallguy]

for years i watched a dvd with those scenes in, and i swear even the vhs copy i had did
so for twenty, twenty five years i watched it that way.
and then i was at my friend's house, watching TUC either because it happened to be on or through one of the services, i forgot. and they weren't there. and i was baffled, and had to explain to my friend that odo is supposed to be there!

I think I felt the same way watching Star Trek: The Motion Picture on laserdisc the first time. It was the first time in at least 10 years that I hadn't seen the Special Longer Version. For it's understandable flaws that had just become TMP for me. (And lots of other people.)

OTOH, the "director's cut" of The Wrath of Khan has always made my skin crawl. (I love it when they label something a director's cut and even the director says "No no. My cut was in the cinemas.)
