Yeah it was 1996. It's just that the time has passed so quickly.
Also ,the battles feel like a Submarine Movie In Space.I somehow have never seen First Contact. I was always a TOS fan but never big on TNG. I need to watch it though.
Anyway, Wrath of Khan will always be my favorite. Spock’s death gets me every time and while everyone makes fun of Shatner now, his acting in the funeral scene is perfect. And of course Ricardo Montalban is the best Trek villain ever. So, sooo good.

Submarine movies In space work really well for Star Trek.
09 also had that epic feel the next 2 lacked.I really do love ST 2009. It really bugs me that the sequels weren’t better. They all felt like the same movie, beat for beat.
Same here. I thought we’d be getting a whole new generation of great films with that cast, and I loved pretty much the whole cast. They were young and could have played the roles for decades. The meeting of the 2 Spocks is one of my favourite film scenes.I really do love ST 2009. It really bugs me that the sequels weren’t better. They all felt like the same movie, beat for beat.
That's a good assessment with Abrams. And I'm a fan of hisYeah maybe the problem is not having a real plan beyond the reboot/restart. They probably should have mapped out a three-movie arc. JJ’s problem is that he’s really good at restarting things, but the follow-up is always messy. Whether he directs the sequel himself (STID) or hands it off to some one else (The Last Jedi) the lack of a clear overall plan in either series is evident. I think he knows what will bring people back and get them invested after a series goes on hiatus but he lacks the ability to create a whole story.
