Just finished Voyage Home. I remember watching that in the 90s and I felt the time travel story was really cheesy. Its much better watching it now given the 80s is much further away.

Tonight I'll watch Final Frontier, weirdly I liked that one back in the day even though its considered the worst one.

The last one I watched was Insurrection. I thought it was pretty average. Nemesis up next. Never seen this one.

Insurrection is the worst Star Trek film ever made, challenged only by Final Frontier.

I didn't like it when it first came out, but now it just feels like an average extended Next Gen episode, which isn't a bad thing. But as a movie.... Meh!

My brother loves this movie. It does have some funny lines in it (DOUBLE DUMBASS ON YOU!)

But I can't decide whether it's so bad it is good, or if it is actually decent. The plot is crap tbh.

Final Frontier is infinitely worse than Insurrection.

I like Insurrection! It’s not amazing but it’s absolutely fine as far as movies go.

I'm in that tiny minority of people who like Insurrection.
Yes, it has its faults but it's an enjoyable film and is miles better than Final Frontier which is by far the worst Trek film.

Just saw the DS9 episode where Rom starts a union. The bit where he quotes the communist manifesto. :lol: :wub:

I didn't think Nemesis was too bad, certainly not as terrible as I was lead to believe. It has some crap bits though, the buggy bit, the scene where Picard flys the attack glider through the ship corridors.

It also had some very great scenes in it. I mean, the Enterprise strawberry floating rammed another spaceship. I love that gooseberry fool.

Fascinating!

It's basically the trolley problem. Do you do nothing, and 2 people die, or do you throw the switch, and only one person dies?
