    Storyline

    Edit
    In the late twenty-third century, the gala maiden voyage of the newly-christened U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-B boasts such luminaries as Pavel Chekov, Montgomery Scott, and the legendary Captain James T. Kirk as guests. But her maiden voyage turns into a disaster as the unprepared starship is forced to rescue two transport ships from a mysterious energy ribbon. The Enterprise manages to save a handful of the ships' passengers and barely succeeds out intact, but at the cost of Captain Kirk's life. Seventy-eight years later, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D crew find themselves at odds with renegade scientist Dr. Tolian Soran, who is destroying entire star systems. Only one man can help Picard stop Soran's scheme, and he has been dead for seventy-eight years. —Gregory A. Sheets <m-sheets2@onu.edu>

    • Trivia
      The producers asked George Takei to come back and play Sulu one more time, and take the helm of the Enterprise-B. But Takei refused, because if Sulu had taken the helm, this would have meant temporarily reducing Sulu's rank, so that he could serve under Captain Kirk again. He felt that Sulu had worked too hard to earn his command to allow even a temporary reduction. A new character, Demora, daughter of Sulu, was created to speak Sulu's lines.

      As Worf climbs up the side of the 19th century ship, his right knee is red either from bleeding or from touching a part of the ship that may have been freshly painted. When he enters the bridge, the red color is missing.
    • Quotes

      Kirk: Captain of the Enterprise, huh?

      Picard: That's right.

      Kirk: Close to retirement?

      Picard: I'm not planning on it.

      Kirk: Well let me tell you something. Don't! Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do *anything* that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

      Picard: Come back with me. Help me stop Soran. Help make a difference again!

      Kirk: Who am I to argue with the captain of the Enterprise? What's the name of that planet? Veridian III?

      Picard: That's right.

      Kirk: I take it the odds are against us and the situation is grim?

      Picard: You could say that.

      Kirk: You know if Spock were here, he'd say I was an irrational, illogical human being for going on a mission like that.

      [pause]

      Kirk: Sounds like fun!

    • Alternate versions
      Fox-TV version removes some footage: During the crisis on the Enterprise B, Kirk starts to stand a number of times to offer a suggestion and then thinks better of it, sitting back down. Scotty leans over after this happens a few times and asks if there's something wrong with his chair. Scotty's remark is deleted. After Riker orders the computer to remove the plank, causing Worf to be dumped in the water, his follow-up exchange with Picard is missing - Picard: "Number One, that's 'retract' the plank, not 'remove' the plank." Riker: "Of course, sir. [shouting over the rail] Sorry!"

    Beautiful
    Another situation where I have to wonder why my rating is so different from the general consensus. This movie is highly underrated and genuinely beautiful. This is pure Star Trek. No huge bombastic battles to speak of, just intimate stories of dreams and hopes, mixed with scientific wonderment. You'll appreciate this one even more with every year you age.
