that's normal in the year 2273

is that the average white bulge?

It was made in 1979. Paramount was trying to capitalize on science fiction in the wake of Star Wars. They'd realized how Trek conventions were surprisingly popular and drawing crowds as well as syndication of the original series and simply went with an existing franchise.

Yes. Spock's 2001 scene just ground the pace to a halt.

This too. There are several shots where you can def see them trying to emulate 2001. The whole film is way too slow. The best shot though is when they introduce the Enterprise in space dock.

hi

For the record, tmp is not the worst, five and Inseruction are. Nemesis is fly as hell, wish it was not so hated

>>86240832
Agreed. The "whale" installment wasn't that great either. It was...different.

Voyage Home was a lot of fun. In the context of there being so many movies the concept lands.

No, fuck that, five was great. It was a morality play about the dangers of personality cults and a questioning dig at Star Trek's own utopian idealism. It's probably the best Star Trek movie just because of pure contrast and its poking the rest of the franchise with hard questions.

>poking the rest of the franchise with hard questions.

but anon, what does god need with a starship?

>>86241610
You are seeing past the bad acting, directing, pacing, editing, and banalaty of the concept. I salute you.

>>86241610
I don't know what shitty contrarian Youtube review you lifted that from but both they and you should be shot. 5 was and is an abortion.

>>86240832
This post is objectively true. TMP is one of the best, most engrossing stories even written in the ST universe. The ADD addled schoolboys who call it boring are the same ones who say the first 45 minutes of Alien is boring.

>>86240719
I love the ship scene

>>86242700
As the OP indicated it really was the 2001 shit that bogged it down. Take out Spock's scene with the alien and BAM a right decent movie. For the fuck of it:

1. Undiscovered Country
2. Wrath of Khan
3. First Contact
4. The voyage Home
5. Generations
6. The search for spock (or nemesis )
7. Nemesis (or spock, i waffle a bit)
8. The Motion Picture
9. Insurrection
10. The final frontier

I do not hate thr new trek but I feel no need to include it, for conpletionists just shove them in somewhere under tmp.
