I had a hard time here but in the end I reluctantly picked the simulation. I remember watching it for the first time and I was on the edge since its the "good-guys" getting toasted... until I found out later that it was only a teating ground. Really got me there. My second choice would be the Excelsior.

I had to go with IX/Insurrection. Though I think the TOS movies were better than the TNG movies (except for TMP, which I didn't like), the TNG movies did start out better. The assassination of the Romulan senate was probably the coolest, but the Romulans have always been, to me anyway, an insignificant race. Not that the Ba'ku aren't (being used far less, in only that movie IIRC) but damn, that was just a great opening.

 

The Borg flashbacks in VIII/First Contact were cool, but that introduction was a bit short.

 

And the opening of VII/Generations was great, start out a TNG movie with a TOS mini-mission. (Two cameos in that scene that I spotted... the captain was the annoying tourist in Speed and one of the women (communications officer IIRC) was John Connor's foster mother in Terminator 2: Judgement Day.)

I would have to say F.C. The open was great and the probe that came out of Picard's check was a great effect and scare.

Maybe I'm just "Old School" but ST II's opening was the best, my reactin to it in the movies was "What's going on here?" I believe we knew Spock was supposed to be killed but we didn't expect it in the opening scenes and who was this Vulcvan woman that was in command??

 

Then the wall opens and Kirk comes out and everyone stands up. It was great.

I have to re-echo my own thoughts here. I had forgotten that I had posted here before and was about to post again and almost said the same exact thing all over again lol.

 

ST II was by far the best (IMO).
