Star Trek the Motion Picture

For the first time in nearly 30 years I watched this. It was the Director's Cut. This isn't the best Trek nor is it the worst either. Seeing them again still gets me giddy. Fave Trek filM though is Wrath of KHAN

Does the director's cut make the first film any better?

Or just longer, yeah.

Khan�s def. my favorite, followed by Voyage Home and the 2009 reboot.

Wrath of Khan is great, but my favorite is IV: The Voyage Home because it was my very first Star Trek experience. I was six years old in 1986 and my dad took me to the cinema with him because he was and still is a rabid Trekkie.

TMP is a very underrated movie, imo. And I'm glad it's getting a rerelease. I just want to see what the new version is like.

Had no idea a director's cut of ST:TMP was released, will definitely be watching this thumb up

IMO, of the original Trek movies from best to worst:

The Wrath of Khan (1982)
The Voyage Home (1986)
The Motion Picture (1979)
The Search for Spock (1984)
The Undiscovered Country (1991)
The Final Frontier (1989)

Mentioned before, a few years back was lucky enough to see a screening of WoK and then Shatner came out on stage to tell his stories and do a Q&A. He's an egomaniac, but also a very funny man.
