"My god, Bones, what have I done?"
"What you had to do. What you always do. Turn death into a fighting chance to live."
I'll one-up anyone's claim on nerd-dom.
TOS S1 is coming to BD, too, a couple weeks before the movies.

Best Star Trek movie of all time: Wrath Of Khan.
Picard does rock though. Patrick Stewart rocks.

Still partial to Wrath of Khan or Undiscovered Country, personally. Though I do love the music to FC.

Kirk and Picard has an appeal, certainly. Seeing the NG cast on the big screen for the first time...definitely appealing. Whoopi Goldberg, Malcolm McDowall...yep, absolutely. It's just a clunky film, IMO, all because Paramount had to have it in theaters for November. Braga and Moore were working on this at the same time they were doing All Good Things at the same time DS9 S3 was getting off the ground at the same time Voyager was going into production. Had the movie been kept for a spring release, the script would have been fine tuned more.
Problems: the destruction of the Enterprise-D wasn't fitting for the flagship Captain Harriman was too much of a buffoon the Picard fantasy grinds the movie to a halt killing Robert and Rene off screen no personality for anyone not named Picard or Data stupid set redesigns and ill-fitting costumes.
I can appreciate it for what it is, just as FC is an action film and I appreciate that. Heck, I've even grown to "like" ST V as much as it makes me want to hurl heavy objects at the screen.

Agreed. As much as NG is a fun film, I thought it felt rushed and clunky, as well. Sorry, but the "old" crew is always where my heart will be when it comes to ST. The NG crew has its moments, but nothing compared to the connections with characters from the older Star Treks. Can't wait to see the new movie this May!
