Too bad, I felt it was actually pretty good.

I saw that one this summer. I think it's one of the more forgettable entries into the franchise. It's not bad by any means, far from it. However, the plot is simply a means to bring Spock back to life, making it more of a plot point in an overall story rather than a self contained work itself.
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

The Voyage Home is probably my second favorite of all the original cast films. It had a great mix of humor and heart that made it stand out among the other much more serious films in the series.

Could it be you haven't seen 7)?
Loving the commentary on the films btw!

I hated Into Darkness. It was a cheap retread of the much better Wrath of Khan and had no interesting ideas of its own. Add on the fact that I still hate that this alternate Trek timeline is now being supported as the main one over the original.

It does seem like a needless reboot.

Yep, that's the one! Despite it being the first film, the pacing is terrible and it tries way too hard to be 2001: A Space Odyssry.
Your turn, Ibby!

Cool! I read that for the earlier films, every odd numbered one was bad while every even numbered one was good?
New Q up soon!

I remember the first one as having a very ambitious plot, and being visually excellent. On the other hand I remember the fourth one as a can of dog food travelling through space and being a bit cringe worthy. :-)

Although there's just as much chance that it's my awkward opinions :-)

Being in the minority (if indeed you are) should not automatically make your opinions awkward

I'm quite used to waving at bandwagons as they leave town :-)

I met an Egyptian girl in NYC. I remember marveling at her intricately braided her.

Just the right amount of force was used.
On my most recent trip I also met this cute American and the baby-faced Korean...
