Star Trek
Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!
I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.
Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.
No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.
No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.
No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.
Please keep topics Trek related or Trek adjacent for the most part, and have fun!

Nice! Do you have a favorite?
Not really, maybe WOK. I liked the movies but there is always a few things in each one that I don't like. It's not as big a deal in the show because it's just a episode and you start over with the next one.
I've always been partial to The Motion Picture, and The Wrath of Khan is good too!
I tend to agree with your comments on the movies though. I've run into the same thing with all of the Star Trek movies over the years. I've never had any of them that really got me excited like the shows have.
My feeling has always been that Trek works best as a TV series. Movies (and by extension heavily serialized shows) often feel to me like just a buildup to an action sequence at the end, and one of the things I like about Trek is the number of times they find an alternative solution to the problem, with that being a last resort. But since action often gets more people in theatres, we don't get that kind of story!
Yeah, I think it works best as a show too.
