Star Trek: Favorite Movie Ending?

*Jumps on banwagon* :)

 

Which Star Trek movie had the best ending?

 

I voted for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. I consider it one of the greatest endings of all Star Trek films. The death of Spock was so emotional.

 

The Motion Picture The Enterprise confronts a powerful and destructive energy cloud made by a machine which turns out to be a fusion of an old earth satellite with alien technology.

 

The Wrath of Khan Having been frustrated in his plans to build a race of superhumans by Captain Kirk, Khan hijacks the U.S.S Reliant seeking revenge.

 

The Search for Spock Before dying in the previous film, Spock transferred his thoughts (his ‘katra’) to Dr. McCoy’s body. To properly lay Spock to rest on the planet Vulcan, both Spock’s body and McCoy must be present. Spock’s body was on the planet created by Genesis technology, and has regenerated without his memories.

 

The Voyage Home The crew of the Enterprise arrives back at earth to find it under siege by a probe from another galaxy seeking contact with humpback whales, now extinct. They travel back to the 1980s to retrieve a breeding pair to contact the probe and repopulate the oceans.

 

The Final Frontier Spock's emotional brother, Sybok, claims to be in communication with a godlike being in the center of the galaxy. Seizing the Enterprise, he takes the Enterprise through the Great Barrier at the center of the galaxy to confront the entity.

 

The Undiscovered Country After their homeworld is wracked by an environmental disaster, the Klingons make peace with the Federation though many on both sides are opposed.

 

Generations Picard confronts a villain willing to destroy populated planets to experience euphoria in a region of space called the Nexus.

 

First Contact The Enterprise pursues the Borg back in time to restore human history. They witness first contact between humans and aliens.

 

Insurrection The Enterprise aids a rebellion on the Baku homeworld against Picard’s superior officer, Admiral Dougherty, who wants to relocate the Baku in violation of the Prime Directive.

 

Nemesis Captain Picard confronts the villainous Shinzon, a younger genetic clone of himself who kidnaps Picard to replenish his own DNA while plotting to destroy earth. The story also involves a predecessor of Data named B-4.

 

The information in poll's parenthesis are reminder cues only; thus, I left out information about the endings. ;)

I voted for “First Contact,” but it was a difficult choice between that and “The Voyage Home.” Funny, the thing I hate most about Star Trek is time travel; yet, my two favorite movies involve time travel.

 

The one bright spot of “The Final Frontier” was Scotty commenting how he knew the Enterprise like the back of his hand and then knocking himself unconscious on the bulkhead.

I always enjoyed Generations most. Malcolm McDowell was absolutely brilliant in that film, and the whole concept of the nexus was quite philosophical, yet still had that classic Star Trek feel. The ending, with the Enterprise separating into two sections was quite unexpected, but thoroughly enjoyable. The best part: When Data says "Oh ****." :D

The ending of a movie is a circumstance of the film itself, so I'd have to go with the film that had the best story - that being First Contact, of course. It was just such an intense movie all the way through, and the end definitely had a "dawn of a new age" feel as the Vulcan ship landed.

I really liked the idea behind Nemesis, but it was poorly executed in my opinion. The ending was not so great because they had to have that B4 copy of Data. I can just imagine... ST XI: The search for Data

 

I guess that I really didn't care for any of the endings, but I liked where the Baku ending left off. That movie was great because it was not one of those "Mankind's fate is in your hands" kind of plots. The fact that the crew stood up and supported the Baku's rights was much more enjoyable because it was by choice... not necessity that they acted.
