All Star Trek

[Space Sweeper]

The name changed to Star Trek 13? Seriously? I don't think anybody is counting the Abrams series as a sequel to the original films.

Well, I guess technically speaking they are. I think that the last we see of Spock in the old stuff he becomes an ambassador to the Romulans, and where Trek '09 picks up he's trying to help the Romulans out when shit hits the fan and he's launched back in time.

That's the one continuous factor though. The movies basically work independently with Spock Prime as a supporting character-- and to a much lesser extent in Into Darkness.

You changed it right? It's your thread.

I think a mod merged my Into Darkness thread with Nightmare's Star Trek 3/13 thread.

[Nightmare Asylum]

Yup, I reported my suggestion so the mods could merge 'em

I watched the original movie. I liked much. Including the landscapes about the ships and so. I don't know why people seem to dislike it.

Because practically nothing happens for the 2 1/2 hour run time. There's a good 15-20 minutes that nothing but the ship moving painfully slowly through the giant space fart, broken up by a brief scene in the middle. It hasn't been nicknamed the Motionless Picture for nothing.

It was a delight, for me

Star Trek: The Motion Picture

Review by Peregrin Took

[Nightmare Asylum]

I still want to see the movie, though. I want to see all the old ones, actually.

TMP is visually and musically beautiful. If you go in only for that, you won't be disappointed.

The thing that's bad is the pacing. First time I saw the movie, I hated it. Gave it a second go a few months ago, and my opinion improved markedly.

Anyways, I've only ever seen one episode of TNG and I know next to nothing about the characters, but from what I read online the Borg seems very interesting. I think it'd be kind of interesting to throw Kirk and company up against them. Pit them against a threat they never faced in the original timeline.

23rd century tech would never be useful against the Borg. The Federation didn't invent technology capable of really hurting them until the late 24th century, i.e. First Contact time.
