i want to start watching star trek

Star Trek II - The Wrath of Khan

Start Trek VI - The Undiscovered Country

Star Trek - The Motion Picture

Star Trek IV - The Voyage Home

Star Trek III - The Search For Spock

Star Trek V - The Final Frontier

Dire Straits - The Sultans of Swing

anything you watch after Enterprise won't exist anymore after the new movie, so why bother? wait, what about First Contact and The Voyage Home? goddamn you JJ Abrams for retconning this madness.

start with enterprise, then watch all the original 60's series, then the first 6 films, then all of TNG, then the next 4 films, then DS9, then voyager.

fuck i havent seen all of these.

by far the best film though is star trek 2 : the wrath of chaka khan.

How come everyone loves the 2nd movie so much?

mainly because kirk goes "KHAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!"

i watched some early episodes of tng a while back. i didn't remember them being that embarrassingly bad the first time :(

Babylon 5

NO

if we are going to pick sci-fi series with numbers in the title, then either blakes 7, or space : 1999

Do not do this.

i dont know, i find it very minimalist and one of the more uneventful star trek movies. its good, just not deserving of the hype that's poured onto it.

most people probably dont remember that II, III: search for spock, and IV:the voyage home, all directly tied into one another creating a kind of star trek trilogy. I think these 3 are probably the strongest of the star trek films if you watch them in order.

i remember seeing a star trek movie where they're trapped in some crazy cloud when i was like 4 years old, it scared me, put me off star trek for years.

fair enough, 2001 freaked me out in the same way when i was 7. it was the star gate sequence, too, the computer killing people didn't bother me at all.

i still don't understand the "meaning" of the star gate sequence, someone care to give me a leg-up?

Because of the bugs that go into their ears.

And Khan.

I like the 4th movie the most. But start with the 2nd and then watch TNG. Skip everything else.

i assume you say this because you think its fairly shit, and in a way, compared to the other series', you are right. i just though it would make the most sense chronologically... basically the only reason why i suggested it.

hmm, perhaps Deepex's advice is for the best.

I watched Enterprise. It was fairly enjoyable. But if it was my first exposure to Star Trek, I don't think I'd think to much of it.

Ricardo Montalban. Plain and simple.

No performance is more glorious or more hilarious.

Unintentional hilarity is a big part of every Star Trek series. Embrace it!

Babylon 5.

Oh, just realised hexagon son said NO.
