Could have had Kirk die on the bridge of the Enterprise-D. Everyone gets out, but someone has to stay behind for a reason. Kirk tells Picard that he should live, and that he himself wants to die on the bridge of an Enterprise. Feels like it would have been a more poetic ending than what we got.

Make it an unwinnable situation like the infamous no win Kobayashi Maru scenario. Have Kirk say he should stay behind on the Enterprise because he is the only one to ever beat an unwinnable situation. As Picard goes to leave. Kirk yells at Picard to remember the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Of course Kirk knows he can't survive. Since he originally cheated in the Kobayashi Maru scenario.

The problem I had with the TNG films, was Picard went from being the commander of his crew to the guy that did everything, it was such a move away from his character and every story revolved around him. I think Picard was one of the best Captains as he was not quick to let his emotions take over, was good at relying on his crew to do their jobs, but in the film's his character only saw himself. Outside of Date installing his emotion chip in the first film, having a weird sexual scene in the 2nd film, and Riker and Troi having a wierd rapey/love triangle with the Reman adviser in the 3rd. No other character had much storytime or scenes.

I know some fans dislike "action man" Picard, but I think it's fine, and the best approach for a movie (as opposed to episodic TV show). As for the others, I could have done with less (or zero) Crusher and more Worf, but otherwise the balance was right. I think most of Generations' plot problems could have been fixed by replacing Guinan with Spock.

To answer your question, yes I'm a fan of the Original Series (re-runs) and Next Generation (I was a little older than Wesley Crusher as it was airing). I liked all of the movies from 1 - 9, wasn't crazy about Nemesis, didn't mind the reboot films. I mostly enjoyed Generations. As someone who watched the series regularly it was a great continuation of those characters. I enjoyed the early stuff with Kirk, Scotty and Chekov on the bridge of Enterprise B.... "it's being installed Tuesday" and other great lines. I always thought that they should have taken those actors and spun that off into a series after Kirk "dies" from the ribbon. In that timeline they could have continued to have cameos from TOS actors and Sulu could have been in the supporting cast as he was Captain of the Excelsior at that time. The one thing I didn't like about this movie was the lighting they used on the Enterprise bridge and Ten Forward. It was all to do with the fact that they were getting one last use of the sets from the television show and they wouldn't look good on the big screen, so they used a darker color palette and blamed it on the fact that they were observing this star. The weird orange glow was annoying but on rewatches on the small screen it didn't bother me as much. This is a permanent fixture on my Christmas watch list due to the scene in the Nexus with Picard's "wife, kids and nephew." The nephew was the only one that existed in his reality, the rest was just a fantasy. I also didn't like that re-cast his nephew, should have used the same actor that was on one episode of the TV series.

The beginning of the film is the best part of the movie, and is really a commentary on TOS vs. TNG. If you watch, the Captain of the Enterprise-B keeps trying to think his way into a solution (complete with technobabble), which is a hallmark of TNG. Kirk is a man of action, the simplest solution is the correct one, move in and beam the people aboard - the scene is a fitting sendoff for Kirk, since after it he’s ‘dead.’

But it's actually a great ST movie. I've defended this movie before, and I really don't feel like typing out all of my counters to the criticisms. Fuck it, here are some: Kirk went out a hero saving many millions of lives. The Nexus was a brilliant idea to get the 2 captains together. BTW, it was *too risky* to fly a ship into it. Please stop repeating the stupidity surrounding this. The scenes with Kirk and Picard were very good. The emotional trials of Kirk, Picard and Data were great. I love Soran's *motivation* for what he's doing. It's great! The scenes of Data dealing with his emotions were great. The Enterprise crash scene was very good. The music is very good. The whole ship and crew were *saved* by the random fluke of Picard being on the planet when the Nexus hit. Again, it wasn't Shakespeare, it wasn't the best. But it was very good to me. And people seriously need to get over the death of Kirk.

The earlier movies are good, but I prefer the original series.)

I have to disagree. It has a strong start, but gets progressively worse. Wrath of Khan is iconic, but honestly I feel the TNG movies were better made, overall.

I've never really agreed with the 'even numbered film' thing. I'll go to war over Star Trek III - kickass adventure that neatly follows on from Wrath of Khan and leads into Voyage Home. Christopher Lloyd as a Klingon is fantastic and Kirk stealing the Enterprise is badass. Its only real crime is that it's just not QUITE as brilliant as II or IV which are both among the best of the series. All the TOS films are good. Motion Picture is an underrated sci-fi feast and Undiscovered Country is often argued to be even better than Wrath of Khan. Final Frontier is the only real stinker and even that has some wonderful character moments.

You guys should watch Star Trek: The Motion Picture. But I'm one of the few (I guess?) who really likes it. The beginning is a bit too long of a getting the gang back together thing, but otherwise, it's a really interesting Star Trek. Then again, I also think the notion that only the even numbered films are good is nonsense. The third one isn't too bad either, not as good as Wrath of Khan of course and not as fun as Voyage Home but not that bad. And really, all the Next Gen movies aren't very good, even First Contact, which I know everyone seems to love, but it's just a pretty bad action movie that poorly portrays how characters were from the series. Picard feels like a completely different person in it. Some of the stuff in the past with Cochrane isn't bad but the rest of the movie is pretty poor.

Many like it, it is just too long in places due to not being edited properly which cripples the pacing but it is still a decent and in places very artistic science fiction film.

The movie itself isn't bad ( I don't even consider it slow) but a lot of the dialog delivery is awkward. They should have done a few more takes. It feels like most of the cast except the Pedo who played Dekkard (he acted the hell out of every scene) really didn't feel comfortable for most of the movie.

One of the dumbest things about it is that anyone could think for about five minutes and shred the entire plot. "Wait, why didn't he just take a ship to where the ribbon was going to be? That's how he got on the ribbon in the first place, and how Kirk did. If he was somehow worried about getting blow up in the ship right before it, he could have just went out the airlock in a spacesuit. Why did he have to blow up a sun to alter the ribbons course if he knew where it was going?"

I remember liking this movie as a kid, but literally even when I was a kid it was soured because I didn't understand why they wouldn't just go back more. It's mentioned in the RLM review too, and if it was otherwise an incredible movie except for this plot hole, then it wouldn't be a big deal, but it's a very meh movie with gaping plot holes too. They mention Picard's family burning to death out of just about nowhere, it's not earned, and then they play on that unearned thing in the nexus and I guess it never occurs to Picard that he could also go back before that and stop that along with Saron. Watching it now, it's a very frustratingly dumb movie, and that's compounded by the fact that it's the very first TNG movie, Kirk's last movie, and a very complex/busy movie for how dumb it is. I feel like people get crap for harping on plot holes, as if they just can't enjoy things, but that's only true to an extent and even less applicable in hardish sci fi like Trek.

I love this movie, but... *the stupidest premise within it is:* dude knows where the nexus currently is, and knows where the nexus is traveling to, yet... in a universe filled with easily obtainable vehicles capable of space travel (like a shuttle craft), it somehow makes more sense to destroy an entire solar system, in order to change the magic space ribbon's trajectory to where you are standing on the ground, *rather than jumping in your basic Hertz rent-a-shuttle, and just flying there.* -- I guess he didn't want the non-return of the shuttle showing up on his credit report?

I'm surprised there was no mention of how the Enterprise-D got itself torn to shreds by a single Bird of Prey. That one enrages fans to no end even today. And yes, I know their shields were being rendered useless and all that. A lot of people just expected the Enterprise to at least try rotating its shield frequency, or firing more than a single phaser shot.

My experience with this movie is that my parents rented it when I was a teen, or possibly a tween. I was out with my friends, and I came home to find my dad asleep on the couch while my mom was still awake watching it. I came home in time to watch the climax. (I had watched a fair number of episodes of TNG, but never anything from the OG series.) Then the next day, I was there when my mom was giving my dad a recap of what he missed. I feel like that’s pretty much all I need.

I loved the movie, and had already enjoyed the send off of the original crew in ST VI, so this was all about the launching of the next gen’s movies, with a bit of the old crew as a bonus. That how I saw it anyway, which was why it worked for me. I remember a reviewer (Tony Parsons on BBC Radio 4) saying, “I can easily see someone sticking their nut in Picard’s face, especially the nutter from A Clockwork Orange, so they needed Kirk to kick this guy’s arse.” So, if you are really seeing it as the first Next Gen Movie, and, like me, had avoided all spoilers, it was actually a magical experience! Not just to get a team up with Kirk at all, but other members of the crew too. Great video, as ever ✌️👍
