Hey, IMO, the only ST:TOS movie that was debateably bad was V: The Final Frontier; ST: TMP was the bridge that brought the franchise into feature films and the story was originally written for TV as the pilot for the ST: Phase Two series that was to anchor a planned Paramount TV network in the late 70s. I’ve seen both the theatrical cut and the director’s cut (that Robert Wise and Paramount put together in the late 90s); the director’s cut smoothed out a lot of the rough edges and, to me, is the definitive version of the film.

The Search for Spock isn’t bad at all; in fact, Christopher Lloyd’s Kruge makes the movie, for one.

The fact that I do not know the Star Trek movies by name, but only by number bothers me not in the slightest.
