    The chase scene where Excelsior tries to stop the Enterprise from escaping Spacedock has more drama, tension, and excitement than maybe any scene in the Kelvin movies (with everything racing around so fast all gravitas is lost).

    Oh my gosh yes. I was too young to see the original release but always wanted to see the destruction scene on the big screen.

    EDIT: Also that poster is great.

    Of course it is… quality of the film aside, it’s the era of re-releases lately. Looks like the strike really fucked a whole ton of shit up

    We had a bootlegged copy of this on VHS when I was a kid and my mother would always make my dad fast forward through the pon farr part…

    @ValueSubtracted Not my favourite of the franchise, but it definitely has some peak moments for me. Christopher Lloyd’s performance was inspired & the ending had me in tears, as did many of the TOS era films. <3
