This movie is so extraordinary. The pacing is perhaps the best the franchise has ever produced. Who knew I wanted a Cold War spy thriller set in the Star Trek Universe?
I was hoping the Section 31 series would be more like this or the old La Femme Nikita,
not the newer remake from a few years back.
@Tetra Vega
Which one? The one starring Maggie Q or the one starring Petra Wilson?
@@BlackDoveNYC Peta Wilson.
Facts!
The movie sucks... The plot is absurd and underdeveloped. The pacing is too fast and it jumps from point to point with little or no development.
Episodic, and fully cinematic at the same time. This film had EVERYTHING.
This is my favorite Star Trek Ever. I love the look, the production design, the political thriller overtones, everything. This is what every Trek film should aspire to be.
Agreed.
Shatner, Plummer, and another notable Klingon, John Colicos, all performed Shakespeare in Stratford Ontario's Shakespeare festival for many years.
I've been listening to Connor Trineer and Dominic Keating on the "Shuttlepod One" Podcasts and couldn't help but notice the interest in Shakespeare from them and their guests so I'm glad they're not afraid to mention him (unless they've college professors or students).
I’m SO glad to hear you say it’s your favorite Trek film, mine too! Even though I prefer TNG era, I can’t help but absolutely love this film and it’s Shakespearean poetry to it all. Kirk saying, “Let them die!” (Despite Shatner supposedly not agreeing with Kirk saying that) the analogy to the Berlin Wall. And Plummer 😚👌🏼 It was all just poetry.
Well said :)
My Favorite Trek Movie as well! My favorite part is when Excelsior is in route to Kitamer. Sulu and navigator conversation on the bridge, "In range? Not yet sir. Come on, come on. She'll fly apart. Fly her apart then!" True testament that you do whatever it takes to help friends and family.
This was the first Star Trek movie I saw in theatres when I was 13 years old. Still remember what an experience that was.
My favorite Star Trek film as well. The pacing and the action at the end between the Enterprise, Excelsior, and the cloaked Klingon ship is such an incredible scene.
"To be, or... Not to be!"
I've been afraid to say how much I adore this movie! I now feel emboldened! Thank you Seán!
It's my favourite too. 6ers unite!
What? Afraid to admit you adore this film? Feel emboldened, now? You live in your Mama's basement, son?
This is probably the best Star Trek film ever made, and my joint second favourite.
This is my favorite Star Trek film too. Not Undiscovered Country, just Sean Ferrick.
"I am as constant as the North Star!"
If Quonos doesn't have axial precession, this PROVES Shakespeare was Klingon!
Even ancient peoples knew the Earth's North Star changes/cycles because the Earth wobbles.
Good taste there, Sean. Absolutely the best film. Amazing soundtrack, great script, and absolutely amazing casting. It simply wouldn't have worked without Warner and Plummer.
Wrath of Khan is still my favorite, generic, I know. But I still love the Undiscovered Country as well as The Search for Spock.
The best Star Trek indeed. At the very least the most under rated because everyone always holds up khan and first contact but forget this one.
This has always been my favorite movie as well, being an old navy guy and an old Cold Warrior, serving as the USSR collapsed. I could really get into Kirk's head as he said "Don't believe them. Don't trust them." This was the movie that spoke directly to me. It still does, even as the Cold War restarts in 2022.
My favorite Star Trek film as well, nice to hear someone else say it is theirs also.
This is my favorite as well. I've watched it so times and it never gets old.
Armed with swagger & sharp comic timing, Iman gave a surprisingly strong performance in _VI._ She would've made a perfect Storm/Ororo Munroe in the '90s.
Iman had the perfect visual look, stature and natural accent to play a convincing Storm back in the 90s
I was in the theater for this. The ultimate up roar by the audience was the rebutal from Kirk "earth, hitler, 1938" a MASSIVE "WOOAH!" was heard.
Brilliant as always! Undiscovered Country is also my favorite, and I agree with what you've said previously we need more stories from that era. 🖖
My favourite as well! Perhaps I'll go and watch it.
And here we are some 30 yrs later, getting another iron curtain..
current events would make for a good Star Trek movie/series!
The scene with kirk and sulu saying "fire", i always liked that part for some reason, it was how they said it that just stood out.
(in George Takei's silky, sexy, measured baritone voice) "Target that explosion and FIRE!"
Still get goosebumps.
"If there is to be a brave new world. Our generation will have the hardest time living in it"
best line in the movie.
Sean, this is my favorite Star Trek movie as well. This is Star Trek at it’s best: taking current events and translating them in a way where the general audience can look at the event objectively.
Star Trek 6 and 2 go back and forth on my favorite one
Exactly! I thought I was the only one...
This is, and always shall be, my favorite Trek film. A StarTrek whodunit?!? Are you kidding me?!!!
This has always been my favorite too. The acting. The effects. The MUSIC!!! The story. I just love this movie.
It is so almost perfect. There was one major flaw that Ms. Nicols points out with the character Uhura. Other than that, i adore this movie
It's possible Nichols took exception to Uhura being unable to speak Klingon.
@@garyrobbins283 that's exactly what she said-a communications officer on the most famous ship in the federation-the one they sent to escort the klingons-And she wouldn't know klingon? It's the one scene id change. It was done for a stupid joke
The Undiscovered Country is also my favourite Star Trek film, with First Contact coming in a close second, followed by The Voyage Home and Insurrection.
You have great taste. Good list.
The Pepto Bismol blood...🤨
This is my favorite Trek film too! I watched the VHS tape on repeat til I wore it out as a kid.
This is my favorite Star Trek movie as well
I bought the soundtrack as a kid and loved it.
This is my favorite Star Trek movie too!
It's my favorite Trek film as well!
Truth be told the undiscovered country is my favorite original cast trek film . I loved seeing the cast in a who did it thriller and a final space battle . Plus I was hoping they would continue with captain Sulu and the Excelsior.
This, is my favourite Star Trek film…….. as well 👍🏽
Probably my favorite, too, Sean.
I was today years old when the Gorkon thing occurred to me too so yeah, think they were safe there...
Link'Chov has a kinda Klingon ring to it
i can say that Star trek 6 is my favorite as well!
A nice bit about the whole "Klingon Shakespeare" thing is that the Klingon language explicitly lacks the verb "to be."
IIRC they invented that Klingon phrase just for this movie!
David Warner and Stewart had also done the same stage plays, same roots and same theatrical circuit. 2 professionals doing genius theatre on screen. Brilliant
Of the original six films, Undiscovered Country is definitely my favorite, just edging out The Wrath of Khan. (Even though I was disappointed that we didn't get to see an actual battle between the Enterprise and Kronos One .....which was depicted in the movie poster....in fact, both Chang's bird of prey and a K't'inga battlecruiser are firing on the Enterprise in the poster). A movie goer that had seen the film before I did on opening night did say "Do not expect The Wrath of Khan", so I took his advice, and still loved the film.
I LOVED the return of the K't'inga class battlecruiser to the big screen in the form of Kronos One (Q'onoS 'wa) , but my favorite version of the K't'inga will always be the ones we saw in Star Trek The Motion Picture. (TMP also had the best photon torpedo effects of any of the Trek films)
Such an underrated movie
I really love hearing the 20 things you never knew about Star Trek : VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991)
OH!! I wonder if the pink blood is a vague reference to The Animated Series,
where the Klingons had pink/purple & green palette for everything?
I have this and the Director's Cut. This is the way to end the series with the original crew.
David Warner was phenomenal as Jack the Ripper in Nicholas Meyer’s “Time After Time” playing opposite another future Star Trek film actor Malcolm McDowell.
One of your best videos to date!
Without a doubt my favorite Star Trek film. I saw it in theatres as a child and today credit this film as my introduction into becoming a history and world-building junkie.
My favorite too!!! I can quote the entire movie.
Yesss, the vid I was waiting for 🖖
Always preferred this over ST II: TWOK.
This is hands down my favorite Trek film by far!
So good to see this, thank you!!
This is my favorite Trek movie too
Seeing what just dropped on TrekMovie.... I'm sure Sean is going to be freaking out in the next 72 hours. Can't wait to see what he puts together.
@SEAN WORF IS BACK!!! Gates, LeVar, Dorn ALL confirmed for season 3!!
Hope Denise Crosby comes back as Sela.
@@tetravega567 since it might be a different timeline, why not have her come back as Lt. Yar?
I agree. It is my favorite movie. Together with ST II.
5:31 I believe it. I myself would never have connected Gorkon with two scarcely similar political figures.
How do we know, though? If you're a test audience member, asking if you noticed that gives you hindsight bias. If no one asks, it's not like you'd say "and I noticed the Chancellor had an especially non-allegorical name!" 😉
This my favourite too & the first one I got to see at cinema!🖖🏻
Being my favorite, too, I was pleasantly surprised to see facts I genuinely didn't know about the film. Good work!
Capt Sulu my friends, enough said.
Good to see you talking about actual Star Trek.
Sorry, I knew everything you told, but it was good to hear it 🖖🏻♥️
No lie it's my favorite to, went and seen it at the theater as a kid, always has been my favorite
Sulu to Christian Slater: “Do you have a hearing problem?” Spock to Kim Cattrall: “What you want is irrelevant, it’s what you do that matters!”
Best Spock Quote: “If you eliminate the impossible, whatever is left, however improbable, must be the truth.”
Nice one but I still prefer: I have been dead before …
Without naming him, Spock was quoting Sherlock Holmes.
Which he alluded to as being one of his ancestors, on his human side, of course.
My favorite too. Plummer is amazing.
Jack Palance: it's the first time I've heard him called that.
Excellent video brother
This is my fav film.
The best movie! It was a fantastic farewell for the original crew and cast. Everything in this movie was well done in my opinion. Particularly it has a very affective memory because it was the first Star Trek movie I watched in the theaters (and Star Trek had never a big space in Brazil) when I was 14 and my whole family was there with me (and they don’t like sci-fi) After that it became almost a family thing watching Star Trek movies together in theaters. It is the only film my sister (again she does not like sci-fi) seats with me to watch whenever I see it again and she is around
David Warner also played Jack the Ripper in the Nicolas Meyer directed film, Time After Time in ‘79. Great movie btw
I’ll give you 15/20. Some of what you said was said in the 25th anniversary of Star Trek which showed scenes of Star Trek VI
My favorite as well.
It's my favourite one too!
Definitely my favorite Trek film, has been since I first saw it. I like your list, thank you!
It’s my favorite as well
Yeah, that's my favourite ST film, too.
This Trek and First Contact are my favorites. I like 2, 3 & 4 too but those two are my favorites.
Yes, this is absolutely the best Trek film for me too. Great video, thanks 🖖🏽
That's fine. It's my favorite Star Trek movie too. Great video. Thanks.
There was the whole thing where the actor that played Klaa in Star Trek V served as a translator in Star Trek VI - which some have retconned to mean that Klaa was dishonored by his actions and was in a separate, less glamourous job in this movie.
It was very good music, I did very much like Horners take on Trek as well as Eidelmans, I do like how dark Eidelmans take was
My favorite as well!
Yeah I loved this one! However my number 1 is First Contact.
My personal favorite Star Trek movie (as well).
IV and VI - my favorites 🤩
Maybe the best Star Trek ever.
My favorite “Trek” movie too!
Also my favorite Trek movie
Half a list!? Don't let it end this way, Captain.
nicely done! good one! 🖖🏻
@@treebles Thanks very much! 🖖
Yep star trek 2, 6 and first contact are my favourite movies
🖖😎👍Very cool and very well done and very informatively explained indeed 👌
Yep, Trek at its absolute best.
Thanks for the video. I look forward to the other installments.
I have to say I am probably the odd man out on this. This is my second favorite with TMP being my first.
To me TMP was better Science Fiction than the later films.
However, my god the acting in ST IV. Every beat spot on and the overall feel is better than the budget should have made it.
TMP?
@@ericb4127 the Motion Picture. Which is the least loved along with 5.
"This is my favorite Star Trek film" I think you and I can be friends :)
6 seconds more and adds would have kicked in. Thanks for that.
Good stuff
