star trek: the whale movie is without a doubt the best trek movie because it has the least amount of actual dumb star trek poo poo and JJ should have realized that and made one of his reboots about going back to save wolves or some other cute endangered animal instead of the garbage fire poo poo his movies were about.

they arent even star wars sequels bad in a way thats entertaining to poo poo on. Should of had the borg queen from the borq movie come back as picards mother or made worfs son goth

Whale movie
Borg movie

Everything else is poo poo. You cant save this franchise i fuckin dare you to try

Even as a kid Star Trek 4 was my favorite one, it was pretty obvious.

funny how for years 4 was the most successful movie and yet every time they want to do a movie it's gotta be as little like 4 as possible

4 was the main reason TNG even got greenlighted iirc, so it saved the series

Imagine if there was no TNG and Star Trek ended with God needing a spaceship

TNG was officially announced more than a month before The Voyage Home was released in theaters.

it feels wrong for the whale movie to be a star trek movie

it's too good to be part of A Brand

No, because not everything needs to be explained. Some things are better left to imagine or wonder.

I'll go ahead and say I never liked the whale movie. It's got some laughs, sure, but it's cloyingly cute and manages to be the least Star Trek of the Trek movies, even if it doesn't fall into the usual Trek movie trap of being a brainless actioner. Every interaction between Kirk and the scientist fell somewhere on the gross/unbelievable scale.

Also, I've lived in Alameda for twenty years and have seen a total of zero nuclear wessels.

It’s the best one actually and feels the most like the tv show. Strong disagree

TMP is the one most like the show, if by that you mean, "one episode of TV padded out to two hours."

I did fall asleep reading a particularly erotic chapter
in my grandmother's journal.

She wrote very detailed descriptions of her experiences...
It's certainly true that THE VOYAGE HOME: Star Trek IV is indeed peak Star Trek, but I wouldn't call that a shame. It's a tough act to follow!

I'll take the whale movie over another couple classic Roddenberry sagas of "the Enterprise meets God, and it's a child or a computer or both"

TNG should've had a movie about returning to that planet. Picard already knows how to wield a Tommy gun.

Each of those bumps on the front of the whale is actually a hair follicle, with a single hair at the centre of it. It's a sensory thing.
