I'm just kind of curious if anybody in here actually likes installments I and V? I realise that they are not exactly the most beloved films of the trekkies, but I really like watching these two. I guess I would not think of myself as a real "trekkie" since I consider all movies and TV shows outside of TOS and TNG (season 3 and earlier) to be blasphemous. I guess I really like I and V because those are the ones that most closely resemble the TV show.
Like most people I of course enjoyed the Wrath of Khan, but I hate with a passion the two films that followed...it seemed killing off spock was just an excuse to make two lame sequels and make my ass hurt for 4.5 hours watching recycled TOS scripts. I haven't watched III and IV for a good 15 years because they annoy me so much.
I'm interested to know what how people in here feel about Star Trek these days (I'm obviously not happy about it). I know everyone has their opinions, but usually when it comes to Star Trek there are a few categories people fall into...I don't really seem have a "mainstream" point of view on this issue. A good example of this is how I thought season 1 was the best season for TNG, and it seems absolutely no one agrees with that.
Additionally, I don't approve of the the new effects stinking up TOS, and I think this new movie is a terrible idea. Paramount had better not pull a Lucas on us and bogart the original films reels.
