I'll just put it this way: I'll happily rewatch TWOK or TUC for the millionth time if they're on, but don't have much real interest in re-watching any TNG movies.

As to Nemesis, the one script Rochey will get to this century wrapped that up pretty nicely.

Thanks :lol:

I agree with you on the TNG movies, though. They just don't hold my attention at all.

So... You should have the mockery of Insurrection up later today, right?

That's ok, we can wait.
While I will watch them again and again, it seems that each successive time, I watch less and less of it. If it were the TOS movies, I watch as much as time permits.

I find the only TOS movie I didn't like was STV, and even that had some good moments in it.

Of the TNG films, I think FC stand up well to re-watching. I find it just as annoying to watch TFF as to watch Insurrection.

STI:TMP Can barely sit through the whole thing.
STII:TWOK Can watch it start to finish, then hit play again.
STIII:TSFS Only if watched in conjunction with ST:II (nice continuity)
STIV:TVH Most people I know like it. If I watch it as a "Trek Comedy" I'm fine from beginning to end.
STV:TFF Spare me. Don't expect me to watch it unless the cable is out.
STVI:TUD See ST:II TWOK
STVII:GEN I think it came out to soon after TNG went off the air. Poor planning. I can watch it if I haven't seen it
in a while. Otherwise, I'll turn on cartoons.
STVIII:FC I loved the opening battle sequence. But after a while, it starts to drag for me. I don't mind watching it
start to finish once in a while, but I get upset if I miss the battle sceen.
STIX:INS See ST:IV TVH and STVII: GEN
STX:NEM What can I say, I'm a space battle kind of guy.
They say that in the Army,
the women are mighty fine.
They look like Phyllis Diller,
and walk like Frankenstein.

Gee, you seemed like such a serious guy :mrgreen: Cartoons with space battles, by any chance? :girl:

So that would be... let me think... the Gundam series? Those are the only "cartoon" that I can think of with space battles.

To copy Mark...

STI:TMP Craptastic
STII:TWOK Good but my over all hatred of TOS makes it not quite epic.
STIII:TSFS Pretty "Meh" Not good, not bad.
STIV:TVH Its the same as Insurrection, just a bit of fun.
STV:TFF Funnily bad.
STVI:TUD I find it a bit lacking in parts and drags in others (Such as the time in prison)
STVII:GEN A bad plot made bareable by good acting and syoathetic characters,
STVIII:FC Awesome.
STIX: INS Just like TVH, dont take it seriously and its just a bit of fun.
STX:NEM Has its faults but still an enjoyable movie.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

STI: Decent. but GOD does it wind on.
STII: Awesome.
STIII: Not bad, but a little...slow
STIV: Good for sentiment reasons, crap for lack of anything interesting going on.
STV: Burn it
STVI: awesome
STVII/Gen: Meh, so so.
STVIII/ FC: Awesome
STIX/ IN: so so
STX/Nem: good for indulging my shallow SFX addiction, f*cking CRAP storyline, character holes, plot devices etc.
