I really don't think this Movie is as bad as alot of people make it out to be, I found the story more Based on the Series then the Action-Packed 1st contact which was nohing like the series to be honest, I just watched this movie today cause i got it on DVD used for $9.00 along with TMP, this movie I enjoyed 10 times more then Generations

I have not decided on whether or not I will get the collectors edition of this one. I got the Collectors Edition of the Trek film I wanted to get and that was First Contact. I do not think Insurrection was bad, but I think the regular version is fine for me.....unless they have a TON of extras on it. :naughty:

I know it's going to have a DTS encoded soundtrack (first Trek video ever to do that) so that is good enough reason for me to buy it again. The EXTRAS list aint too shabby either, Yillara.

*shudders at the mere thought of that movie* :hug:

 

I have decided not to buy it. I don't even have the "normal" DVD. I'll have my friends buy it and send me over the screencaps from the Behind-The-Scenes extras. B)

 

*shudders again* Insurrection... :naughty::laugh:

but why was it so bad for you guys?

1. Driving the Enterprise - E with an Atari joystick.

2. Worf's "pimple"

3. Boring villians

4. Boring storyline

5. Data with a beer gut

6. Stupid, unintelligent, forced juvenile humour

7. Enterprise-E barely being able to cope with a C- grade villian ship.

8. Another Admiral gone rogue (yawn)

9. The stupid Opera song

 

These are just off the top of my head. When I give it some real thought, I'll post some more.

Oh, and I don't like that so-called humor, that joystick scene... Pretty much all the reasons Kor mentioned, except for the opera one... I liked Jean-Luc singing, though I tend to agree that this was totally out of character for him. :hug::naughty:

It is one of my favorite Star Trek movies. I love the jokes. I love the beauty of the planet. As I have said before in other discussions on this site about Insurrection, I love the scene where Picard experiences the 'perfect moment in time.' I love the scene where Geordi sees his first sunrise. I love the idea of a people struggling to stick to their principles ( reminds me of the people in Mirror, Mirror) against overwheliming odds.

 

 

 

However I already have the movie, and am unlikely to buy a special version of it.

 

 

In fact, I think I will go and put it on now...thanks for giving me that idea! :naughty:

yeah the only "bad part of the Movie" is the Joystick, but the Villans are kool, and bein the same race as the ones on the planet adds a ood twist, like I said this movie represents what TNG the Series was alot better then 1st contact

I agree with ya Joe, I like this movie and think it is very good. I thought the humor of this movie may seem juvenile, but that doesn't mean I didn't laugh. The Geordi seein scene is probably my favorite scene in the movie, besides Data singing at the beginning, which had me laughing hysterically the first time I watched it.

 

But every movie has it's lovers, likers and haters, no matter how good or bad a movie is. But in this case, I think the movie was ok, definitely not the best, and it's not the worst. Very enjoyable. :laugh:

Generations is a personal favorite of mine. It is the inspiration behind the Shatner Trek series that I love so much. So it holds a special place for me. Not to mention, I just like the movie. :laugh:

I always felt that Insurrection felt like a 2 hour episode, while First Contact had the whole feeling of "this is a movie!"

'Insurrection' SE DVD Wins More Fans For Extras Than Film

 

I like the film but having it in DTS (Digital Theater Sound, better than 5.1) makes it the best sounding Trek film in my collection; they really dropped the ball not giving all the SE's the DTS treatment.

This is by far my favorite ST movie too for many of the reasons above. I also like the humor and the music. The only part that others do not like that I agree with is the joystick. :)

when i first saw the movie and it came to that scene i thought it was a joystick. i thought that was cool that they used a joystick to fly the ship manually.
