Unfortunately I don't have either.

No, but he's got style.

Agreed.

Star Trek 6 has always been my favorite Trek film, and Chang is HUGE part of the reason why. Of course, when you have an actor of Chris Plummer's caliber, that's easy to understand. So this was an easy purchase for me. I might waffle a bit on, say, Sybok, and I'd definitely say no to Klaa, but Chang, Khan, and Kruge are all fantastic villains played by fantastic actors, and they will all be mine!

I would LOVE a Sybok (more than Chang tbh)!

"Share your Pain!!"
"What have I done!?"
"Join My Quest!"
"Stop! The God of Sha Ka Ree would not do this!!"

Heck yeah!

 

[davejames]

I'd absolutely love to see a 1/6 Sybok. Not sure I'd get him, but it would be fun to see.

I probably would get Sybok. That movie is terrible, but he's a pretty outstanding character.

I recently re-watched TFF, and to my surprise, it wasn't NEARLY as bad as I thought I remembered.

My guess is because when it came out it was in reasonably close proximity to II, III, and IV and it certainly suffers in comparison to those films, but on its own, and taken for its own merits, I found it quite good!

And always so great to see those TOS'ers we've lost since out there doing their thing...

 

[davejames]

Yeah it may not have the strongest story, but seeing the original cast in those roles again is never not fun.

And the movie does have some powerful, well-directed scenes in it that are as good as anything in the other movies. And the action isn't bad either.

I like it a lot more than Insurrection and Trek Into Darkness and probably the 2009 movie, as well. There's some genuinely good stuff in it: Sybok, the Yellowstone scenes, McCoy and his dad. I think a lot of the ideas were good, but the execution really fell short for most of it. In the hands of a more capable writer/director than Shatner like Nicholas Meyer or Leonard Nimoy, I think it could have been really great.

Watch the behind the scenes stuff. Shatner wanted to do a darker film and Paramount kept pressuring for more humor. I think that's the main problem with the movie, the tone shifts often.

I watched it last weekend too. Aside from some weak visual effects, of all the Trek movies, TFF covers one of the most interesting topics, “the search for God”. There’s definitely flaws but it’s an entertaining watch.

That opening scene with Kirk, McCoy, and Spock with his rocket boots is a laugh every time.

I think the humor saves the movie and gives it it's charm, but it definitely feels out of place with such a serious storyline. And kinda makes the whole thing feel a bit frivolous.

The ‘row row row your boat’ song at the end always gets me in the ‘feels’. Just a simple touching scene between good friends.
