Any Star Trek First Contact fans here?

[Spaceception]

I'm a big fan of Star Trek First Contact (Unfortunately I've only seen it once, as they took it off netflix shortly after ) In fact, I'm listening to "Magic Carpet Ride" right now

So what about you guys?

First contact is my favorite next generation movie, and I've seen every one twice!

Exactly - that's the order I'd put them in... Generations would be at the very bottom of the list and I would only watch it if the alternatives were ALF, My Little Pony, or anything on PBS...

Only twice? I think I've only seen Generations twice... all the rest, well, I can't count that high!

Oh, I watched Wrath of Khan so many times I can't count either. By the time I got to gorging the other films my wifes comedy shows had ensnared me, stealing away most of my free time

I have the benefit of having a wife that also likes sci-fi! That helps tremendously. I do not feel so bad having various federation ships in the living room, and of course, a collection of the die-cast miniature Imperial craft in the bedroom. She's even going to let me get the star destroyer Bluetooth speaker for the bedroom...

When we got married she never even flinched when she saw my TOS uniform and the stuff to make the WOK era uniform. (I even have a commissioning as a commodore from a convention I went to in 2005!)

Conventions aren't really my thing,  but my entire family is made up of hardcore SciFi fans. I don't want this thread to get locked though, so perhsps we should steer back to the starting topic regardless of how awesome our families are

Did she show any surprise that you weren't in a tuxedo?

[adsii1970]

Oh, I didn't get married in the uniform (I think even her father, a big TOS fan would have approved, as long as we didn't make him a red shirt). When she was moving into my apartment after we were married is when she saw the uniform, complete with phaser, velcro belt, communicator, and tricorder...

I figured, but the way it was worded sounded interesting.

First Contact is, by far, the best Star Trek film, and is likely also the best in every other universe that has Star Trek somehow.
