The only Star Trek release that matters this year is coming on April 5th to Paramount+ (which I intend to make T-Mobile pay for): Fathom Events will also be showing the movie in theaters towards the end of May: https://www.fathomevents.com/e...ek-TMP-Directors-Cut And unofficially, we'll get the movie on 4K Blu Ray in September. | ||

I named one of my Eve Online characters after Decker's girlfriend, Illia. Otherwise, that's all the impact that movie has had on me.

There are easier ways to get to sleep than watching that movie....but I can't think of any offhand. | |||

I’m a Trekkie, and I agree. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past me I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. -- | |||

The Director's Cut that came out in 1999 actually turned this into a good movie. The only difference now is Paramount didn't cheap out and only render it at 480p. | |||

Hell, yes! Best movie of the bunch, going away. Most of what was interesting in TMP was over after the initial encounter between the Klingons and VGer, and the Kohlinar scene. | |||

Is the Director's Cut shorter? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Yidn, shreibt un fershreibt" "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind." -Bomber Harris | |||

I remember seeing this movie in a theater with friends in its first run. It was "50 Cent Night"; Weds night 50 cent ticket, sodas, and popcorn. We all walked out after maybe an hour. The first and one of the few movies that wasn't worth $ .50 "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

It’s 10 minutes shorter and jams in more scenes. It doesn’t turn into an action movie, but it feels like a movie with an actual plot instead of just endless montages. There’s an actual beginning, middle, and end now.
They did. Since no VFX shots needed finishing, the Director’s Cut has been on DVD, Blu Ray, and 4K. | |||

I've said it before, the best part of that movies was the novelty of it. At the time. Old Tv show brought back as a movie. Seeing these characters again for the first time in over a decade. Here and now that's all gone. The idea is old and beaten to death. After that we saw them again and again, maybe too much. | |||

I was a huge Trekkie and 11 years old when this came out. Looked forward to it more than Christmas and could not have been more excited to see it. And the it just . . . Sucked. A massive disappointment. It was unwatchable let alone rewatchable. "You know, Scotland has its own martial arts. Yeah, it's called Fuck You. It's mostly just head butting and then kicking people when they're on the ground." - Charlie MacKenzie (Mike Myers in "So I Married an Axe Murderer") | |||

So none of you ever knew that Paramount let the director Robert Wise fix and reedit this movie 20 years ago before he died? You’re all just living on nostalgia of an incomplete movie rushed into theaters before it was finished back in 1979? | |||

Hop head  |
I'll watch it, I saw the original in the theater as a 14yr old Star Trek fan, was it slow,, yes, but to see all that on the big screen was awesome https://www.chesterfieldarmament.com/ | |||

Was that the one where the aliens found Voyager souped it up and it tried to kill everyone? If so I don’t give a shit what the director did to try to save it. It was horrible. Enjoy your flybys. | |||

| Why don’t you fix your little problem and light this candle  |
Is this only being released for streaming? I was not able to find a pre order for the 4k disk version. This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it. -Rear Admiral (Lower Half) Joshua Painter Played by Senator Fred Thompson | |||

Pretty much. I'm a Star Trek fan, but that film was so terrible that I basically haven't given it a second thought ever since I saw it the first time. | |||
