When the Orignal Star Trek aired on TV in October of 1966 I was a senior in High School. Still I had no idea of what I wanted to be. Because Star Trek pictured women as equal to men with a hint of even leading men I thought I wanted to be an Astronomer. But my dad thought otherwise. My dad was a college electronics instructor. He pointed out that Astronomers used mathematics in their work. My math was terrible.I should go to college to be a sociologist. How terrible! We agreed that could go to college to become a writer. After 3 years Star Trek ended. I had my Associate of Arts degree in Literature.Got married and moved to Toledo, Ohio. I had a little girl when Star Trek the Next Generation begin it's 7 year run on TV. Up to this time I had not forgotten the orginal Star Trek. I bought nearly all the books that came out and watched all the movies on the orange Star Trek. It was Star Trek the Next Generation that put purpose into my life. With Gordie being blind, Data being an Android,and Deanna Troi being and empath pointed out that thre were people out there that needed help. After my daughter was grown and moved out of the house, I made plans to go back to school to be a psychologist just like Deanna Troi. To put the finning touches on my plans, Star Trek: Generations came out in 1995. The movie really put thoughts on how far people should go to help other people in need even to losing their lives and the ship. You cann't stay in your dream world because life changes all the time and moves on. It's up to us if we help out doing the best we can or rest on what other people think we should be.Read full review
Meant to be a "passing of the torch" from Original series to Next Generation it doesn't quite achieve that objective. However, as a "stand alone" movie.. where we get to experience the "Nexus" it does provide a basis for "Discovery", and the multiple realities of that series. Captain Kirk and Picard, in the same story.. as far as I know, never happened before or after Generations.

Can't go wrong with any original Star Trek movie (or the newer ones portraying cast when they were young, just starting out in their Starfleet careers). I've been a Trekkie fan ALL MY LIFE! :)
