I voted this one a five, this is probably the top scoring of the TOS films for me. I thought it was hilarious as well as having a pretty darned good story line! It is the one TOS film that I have watched the most over the years. This one actually gets into the top three spot almost when I rank all of the Trek films..from 1 to 10.

 

Definately a fun Trek with Kirk and Crew! :P

5, The chick Flick of Star Trek

 

Its a nice change of pace to the tragic events of the last 2 trek movies, with Spock, and then Kirk's Son David getting killed, Im glad we had some good humor in this one, and I think its the only Trek Movie nobody dies in

5. Superb movie. Scotty touring the factory with Bones, Bones healing Chekhov, Sulu with the helicopter, Kirk and Spock at the Institute, so many good scenes in this one. Just terrific. Good plot, good writing, good acting, good direction from Nimoy, good visual effects, nice usage of humor throughout it all. Great movie.

From me it only gets a 3..not one my fav trek films,in fact it would be on my worse trek film list at the top,yes some scenes are funny but i like more space action then 90% of the film on a planet....i just thought it was a slow moving flick.

 

"He did a little too much L.D.S back in the 60's"...kirk TVH :yahoo:

A good flick. Kirk and co. journey to earths past to find two humpback whales in order to thwart the destructive communication attempts of a space probe.Neat premise and cool Sarek appearance make this an entertaining ride. :nono:

One of my favorite Trek films. I love humor in Trek films and this has plenty - the nerve pinch of the loud punk on the bus, Scotty talking to the PC, "one little mistake" after the operation, etc... Sarek's and Amanda's appearances are nice touches, & Kirk and company's "fish out of water," so to speak, experiences in late 20th Century San Francisco are great imo.

This one probably isn't as good...

 

................................................................................

.....................

 

WHA - WHAAA. WHA - WHAAA.

 

Hey what is that? Looks like a big tube in space. Oh, a little ball is coming down.

 

Now what's that? The Reliant!!? No it's something else.

 

A female captain, oh it's all going wrong - well she was fat lot of good.

 

.........................................

 

Klingon justice is rubbish.

 

And Vulcans are the puppets of the Federation.

 

Now now, let's not get catty girls, you're making a scene...

 

.........................................

 

"What is the artifact".

 

"Klingon mumification gliff".

 

"Correct!"

 

Please reconfigure the envelope so that the wotsit can get through.

 

Beep beep beep.

 

Correct!

 

How do you feel.

How do you feel.

How do you feel.

 

Mum - have you been tampering with the computer again - sigh! I've told you to stay out of my room. Man I hate being back at home, sigh.

 

..........

 

Ah've replaced the ration packs with something a bit less Kilingon. They were giving me a sour stomach!

 

Yes, well Scotty, they would if you ate all of them in one go! It's no wonder the hull plates have come loose.

 

Bones, you've called it the Bounty.

 

Yes captain, I think there's a certain irony.

 

Why yes Bones, I see what you mean, the Klingons would never indulge themselves in a dark chocolate coconut treat.

 

Bye Savik no 2 (I hope she doesn't baloon like the first one Bones)

 

...........

 

Vrooooom - gosh this is an embarassing ride isn't it. I hope no-one we know sees us in this. I would just die!

 

...........

 

STAR FLEET COMMAND

 

Hey look it's Majel Barrett-Roddenberry manning the switchboard. And it's Mr Sisko! Hey Mr Sisko, what about some Gumbo...

 

Oh dear Sarek, it's going terribly. The ships are all being neutralised and the sea is going everywhere. What do we do?

 

Mr President - send a distress signal. And tell everyone not to come here. Sigh ... idiot!

 

...............

 

Oh look Captain, it's a message from Starfleet.

 

Quick Uhuru, patch me through.

 

.............

 

Oh look it's Kirk, boost the power - argh!

 

...........

 

Right what is this noise? Uhuru?

 

It's whales. We gotta go back in time and get some so they can tell this mother where to go.

 

No bother.

 

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee round we go....

 

Oh i'm dizzy.

 

"So I told her, if she thinks I'm gonna pay $60 for a damned toaster oven..."

 

Remember where we parked.

 

Ha.

 

................

 

(Que 80s music) Da-de-da da, da-de-da-da

 

Double dumn *butt* on you

 

Ha.

 

Hello, buy my glasses - okay, heres some money - cheers.

 

Let's split up

 

Computer??? Hello computer.

 

Oh I love your big chopper, I used to have one just like it back in college - mind if I have a ride?

 

We are looking for Nukleer wesseells. Nukleer wesseells Nukleer wesseells Nukleer wesseells Nukleer wesseells Nukleer wesseells Nukleer wesseells

 

Ha.

 

Right, need to find some Whales.

 

Oh there are two. Who is she? Shaaa--wing!

 

Hi fancy dinner.

 

Yeah - pizza and a Mikleobe. What?

 

Right - I am an alien and I want your Whales.

 

Oh no, not another bad date.

 

...........................

 

Oh no - Chekov is hurt ... again! You can take you no-where.

 

Take two of these and call me in the morning.

 

It's a miracle!

 

Ha.

 

(Could have been worse, Eddie Murphy could have joined in in a fat suit)

 

...........................

 

Right we have the Whales. Let's go. Oh god she jumped on board. Hoepfully she won't bring bubble perms and loose knitwear back to the 23rd century...

 

........................

 

Oh we're home, that's great. Chat away whales. Chat to the big tube in the sky!

 

(Big Tube in Wales language) ... and you can consolidate all of your monthly outgoings into one monthly repayment ...

 

(Whales) No it's okay, we're not interested, we're are happy enough with the credit card we have, although we haven't probably paid it in a few hundred years so we'll be in touch ...

 

(Big Tube) Thanks for your time, bye now ...

 

.................

 

Yay - Kirk saved the day.

 

You're being made a Captain again.

 

Oh that's grand sure I wasn't a great Admiral anyways

 

Here's your new ship

 

It's an old one with a new paint job

 

Sure it'll do. Yo!

 

The end
