I guess this is a hot take.

  • Beyond - We are not equipped for this method of combat
  • Into Darkness - Gorn C-section, those bastards bite!
  • The Motion Picture - Still puts me to sleep
  • Nemesis - I hated it more after the director commentary. DARK!
  • Howard the Duck - Better than Insurrection
  • Picard Season 2 - Still better than Insurrection
  • … (other movies here, like Lilo and Stitch 2)
  • Insurrection
