Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986)
♥♥♥♥
A very vegan movie, and I love the recognition of there not just being one sentient or intelligent species on earth. (About time!) Three lovely quotes: Spock: "Admiral, if we would assume that these are ours to do with as we please, we would be as guilty as those who cause their extinction." Spock: "They like you very much, but they're not the hell your whales." Gillian: "I don't know about you but my compassion for someone is not limited to my estimate of their intelligence" I love that McCoy is so much a doctor that he doesn't pass on an opportunity to save lives, even though it interferes with history. It's a bit Noah's ark (fantasy)-like to expect to repopulate a species with only two individuals, though. Suggested numbers to avoid inbreeding vary according to species, apparently, but are often in the thousands: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_viable_population Still, that way it's more of a recognition of them as individuals rather than being nothing but a species, which is positive. Btw. I get the impression here that Spock and Sarek's relationship is much better than the impression I got from TNG. I guess it soured later. TOS Star Trek film rankings so far: I, IV, III, II. (Though IV and III are quite close)
Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984)
♥♥♥
Feels quite campy, like an adventure film, but I like the klingon captain, and in this one it also seems less like Spock only cares about Jim which I think is rather strange considering all the time he's spent with all the others too. Unoriginal fate that David has, though. Almost deserves a 4, but not quite. It's surprising (perhaps even somewhat unbelievable?) that Vulcans retain such mysticism for being such an incredibly logical people. Star Trek TOS Film rankings so far are probably: I, III, II.
