On this day 25 years ago, Star Trek IV beamed into movie theaters. THe thing I remember most from this movie are the whales and the classic theme song which someone did for a computer music file!!!
This one was the least of my favorites. Too lighthearted, no violence, no blood, no explosions... doesn't feel like a true Trek film for it kinda sucked and boring like The Motion Picture but I still like it because it is part of the Star Trek saga anyway. The Best Star Treks were The Wrath of Khan, The Search For Spock and The Undiscovered Country in which I watch those the most out of all the Star Trek movies I own from parts 1-11 on DVD.
The last movie to use the Paramount Blue Mountain logo, although Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade would use it at the end of the movie and the 2010 sing along version of Grease used a Viacom version of the logo.
i have yet to see it but i plan to the only ones i dont are the 2009 and motion picture. anyway this one seems like my favorite and i only have seen the trailer for this one, also this seems to have the best lines lol
It’s hard to pin it down to which was the best Dolby Stereo mix of 1986? This one certainly sounded awesome in THX sound system at the Empire Leicester Square via the original JBL THX 13KW sound system in 70mm Dolby Stereo SR. October 8th 1989 Star Trek all day 70mm marathon.
Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982) Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986) Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991) Star Trek: Generations (1994) Star Trek (2009)
I loved this movie!!!! My all time favorite Star Trek line comes from this movie: "No, I'm from iowa, I only work in outer space." And, my second favorite: "Everyone remember where we parked." LOVE IT!!!
I am not massively into Star Trek but I enjoyed this film. What with fish out of water storyline and the fact that the actors are basically lampooning, what was then contempary Earth . It kind of brings in non-Trekkers.
All credit to Channel 4(Television channel in Britain) to have shown all the feature films from the Motion Picture 1979 to "Nemesis" 2003 on 10 consecutive Saturdays.
Now this weekend, they are showing them all 10 films over 2 days!!!!
@Schluffy No, just that a probe attacks earth, Kirk and friends travel back in time to find an answer, hilarity ensues, something about whales, and they attempt to go back to the future... oh wait! I think you're right!
That's gotta be a Borg probe. It explains so much things that are missing when you watch regenration, this and the best of both worlds, and everything falls into place.
For some reason I really like this one, i can't stop watching it! I think the songs are cool, even at the end. I never thought I see kirk commanding a klingon ship. Also the alien probe looks like some kind of giant hostess choclate cake. lol!
Second ONLY to Wrath, this movie kicks ass right out of the box with it's time travelling idea. Spock mind melding with a Humpback whale seals the deal!
Personally, I think that ST4 was just a front for the "Antiwhaling" movement. I mean, they could've said that they needed someone like T'Pol who would actually know how to speak that language. Or maybe Doctor Who. that would be cool.
@cokefan3 It's explained in Search for Spock: SPOILER ALERT!SPOILER ALERT!SPOILER ALERT! The classic 5 (Kirk, Scotty, McCoy, Chekov, and Sulu) stole the Enterprise and blew it up in a ploy to capture a Klingon Bird of Prey to use to pick up Uhura (who had been busy covering their escape) at Vulcun, and drop off Spock (who they picked up from the planet after Spock "died" in Wrath of Khan) Scotty's old because...well...he was already 50ish during TOS and this is 10-20 years after that, so...
Can I state the obvious here? (clear throat) THIS IS THE BEST STAR TREK MOVIE THERE EVER WAS!! (too bad it's also the last one that was worth a damn).
No. Star trek 6 was a good movie also with it's relevant story about those who aren't accepting of peace with old enemies and as a farewell to the original crew.
Well I do prefer the old TOS movies over the TNG ones even though I do kind of like "First contact" and TNG is my favourite trek series. Star trek 2 is my favourite trek movie as well as one of my favourite films of all time.
Ah the old days when movie trailers would actually give you some hint as to what the movie is about rather than shoving explosions and cliche lines in your face for 30 seconds and a title fade-in
Are there any clips showing the time - travel sequence to reach the past, OR when George & Gracie swam out of the Bird of Prey cargo bay & sang to the probe ??
Of the 11 star trek movies, this is one of the best for sure. Even my friends who don't care for trek like this movie. "Number 4, thats the one with the whales right?" That movie rocks
It's been 23 ( ? ) - something years since this movie showed in theaters, & it's the best one with the original cast, & it came at a time when I needed something uplifting.
"3 men and a baby" was originally a french movie. Nimoy hadn't much to do. As much as I admire him, I must say that the american version is not as funny and cute as the original
This I know, but a director does not write a film, he directs it.
Nimoy had a LOT to do. Directing any film, even one that has been made before- is a lot fo work and requires a hefty amount of personal artistic input.
Watching the original Trois Hommes' and the American remake, you can tell they have different styles.
great film, i wonder what happened to the bord of prey did they slavage it or give it back to the klingons after the peace conference? or did kirk keep it in his back yard
So this was set just before the Eugenic War? They should have nipped over to India, and taken Khan out there and then. It would've saved them all that pissing about, searching for Spock.
How long is this movie? I wanna watch it-but I'm not really a big Star Trek Fan,so I don't want to sit through 5 hours of something I don't like:) Love you Chekov!
Um, the J.J. Abrams movie definitely had a better plot than The Voyage Home. To begin with, the movie didn't revolve around going back in time, snatching up some pregnant whales, and then bringing them back to the 23rd century where they could communicate with a probe.
Also, you need to quit bitching. It was an alternate series of events because Nero fucked up the timeline, so clam down if it doesn't follow TOS or the movies. Jeez.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The JJ movie is unfit to be a comic book, let alone a movie. Any movie with time travel threatens basic coherency (what there is of it in sci-fi) but JJ pissed the sheets by changing Trek history and the ending up with two Spock. Oh, that's brilliant. And he also doesn't know jack about checking to see if he got the basic science down. He's a loser, for today's under-30 loser generation, who are so uneducated that it's laughable.
Ding ding, here comes the clue train, last stop SagenAppreciationSoc. Just because he changed things making it an alternate reality doesn't mean he pissed all over Star Trek. And as for "checking to see if he got the basic science down", what the hell do you think TOS was? A science text book. Hell, in one of the equations Kirk said "One to the fourth power." Oh, I don't really see how education comes into play here, but if you would like, I'm free to kick your ass in that department as well.

>"And as for "checking to see if he got the basic science down", what the hell do you think TOS was?"
You're going to compare a weekly, low-budget TV show from the 60's, back before anyone could double-check anything via the net, to a modern, multi-million dollar movie?
Children today. You have to beat them. Seriously.
>"Just because he changed things making it an alternate reality doesn't mean he pissed all over Star Trek."
I think I'm saying this on behalf of everyone who's reading these comments..... SHUT THE FUCKING HELL UP. Who gives a shit if his science isn't perfect, it was a fecking brilliant film and it had IMAGINATION. Something you obviously lack.

Oh yeah, and thanks for spamming me with replies, it shows that you have a lot to do. What you really need to do is calm down, it was a movie and you're acting like J.J. Abrams just killed your family.
Oh, and btdubs I know who Carl Sagan is. Just so you know.
There is nothing dumbed down about the movie, you self-righteous bitch. I happen to love both the original series AND the movie. Sounds to me from your attitude that YOU are the one that needs to 'get stuffed'.

We all accept that that "warp" is a plot device (and hypothetical) to place one in a bubble of non-normal space so as to cheat the C rule. There would be no space flicks beyond 2001/2010 if not for such cheats.
The main science problem with JJ's flick is that there was far too little "red matter" to form such a black whole or any such gravitational effects. And when the new crappy looking Enterprise ejected it's warp cores, it should have been sucked into the black hole (with the script).
Actually, what they were trying to do was create an explosion to propel the Enterprise away from the black hole they had just created. Although, I do see what you're saying because by injecting it with a the Warp Core would have increased the mass, not to mention gravitational pull of the black hole.
"Wikipedia?"
No, it's called school.
"The obvious escapes you, even still. The problem isn't merely your spelling, but not recognizing the context"
this movie was so......diffrent from the previous movies I mean they save whales, not fight khan or klingons or meet some bald lady who is really a robot looking for Vger
I won't be making any movies, but if i were, it wouldn't be crap. JJ crapped all over Trek canon, violated the known laws of physics as if he had a 4th grade education (apparently JJ knows nothing about mass and gravity) and worst of all, it did the unthinkably stupid: going back in time and changing thing such that two of the same characters exist. So they explain it away with "parallel timelines". What crap. And Kirk wasn't Kirk at all - at least the other actors had some small handle on them.
this is one of the coolest movies i´ve ever seen! Spock with the headband swimming with whales, Kirk trying to make a deal in the antique shop in order to get "a lot of" money, Pavel and Uhura asking for nuclear vessel,... just incredible moments :))
@deathwishtaco I agree, this movie probably has the most funny parts, like the one where chekov was captured on the navy ship and he is arguing with this guy about names,lol.
this movie made over a 1.9 million bucks (a LOT for 1986)...it was #1 in the box office for a while too...hey man don't diss....besides it's my favorite movie of the all the star trek movies.
I hate to burst your illusion there Jillian, but Star Trek IV grossed $109,713,132 dollars at the U.S. box office. That's 109 million dollars not 1 million 9 hundred dollars.
And a movie that makes $109 million dollars by todays standards is STILL a lot of money.
For god sakes the thing cost $27,000,000 to make. If it had grossed 1.9 mil it would have been the biggest cost to profit dud in history.
This Star Trek was an attack on the greed, stupidity and rudeness of the 80's. It blasted the selfish Me Generation. (Notice only the girl and a few other care about something besides themselves, and this is what drove the whales to near extinction)

Of course, I'm also in love with Spock, so that might have something to do with that. LOL

Um, the J.J. Abrams movie definitely had a better plot than The Voyage Home. To begin with, the movie didn't revolve around going back in time, snatching up some pregnant whales, and then bringing them back to the 23rd century where they could communicate with a probe.
Also, you need to quit bitching. It was an alternate series of events because Nero fucked up the timeline, so clam down if it doesn't follow TOS or the movies. Jeez.

The JJ movie is unfit to be a comic book, let alone a movie. Any movie with time travel threatens basic coherency (what there is of it in sci-fi) but JJ pissed the sheets by changing Trek history and the ending up with two Spock. Oh, that's brilliant. And he also doesn't know jack about checking to see if he got the basic science down. He's a loser, for today's under-30 loser generation, who are so uneducated that it's laughable.

Ding ding, here comes the clue train, last stop SagenAppreciationSoc. Just because he changed things making it an alternate reality doesn't mean he pissed all over Star Trek. And as for "checking to see if he got the basic science down", what the hell do you think TOS was? A science text book. Hell, in one of the equations Kirk said "One to the fourth power." Oh, I don't really see how education comes into play here, but if you would like, I'm free to kick your ass in that department as well.

Here's a clue for you. You'd be less apt to think you can challenge me in science education, if perhaps, you had managed to spell the name correctly.

You're going to compare a weekly, low-budget TV show from the 60's, back before anyone could double-check anything via the net, to a modern, multi-million dollar movie?
Children today. You have to beat them. Seriously.

Yes. Yes it does.

I think I'm saying this on behalf of everyone who's reading these comments..... SHUT THE FUCKING HELL UP. Who gives a shit if his science isn't perfect, it was a fecking brilliant film and it had IMAGINATION. Something you obviously lack.

SaganAppreciationSoc could you just like stop being a douche bag? Like, really? Sorry that they changed things so they could make an original movie. Oh yeah, and thanks for spamming me with replies, it shows that you have a lot to do. What you really need to do is calm down, it was a movie and you're acting like J.J. Abrams just killed your family.
Oh, and btdubs I know who Carl Sagan is. Just so you know.

The 2009 JJ movie is hardly original, being that it's a dumbed down take-off on a 60's franchise.

So you can reply to me, but i can't reply to you? Gets stuffed.

There is nothing dumbed down about the movie, you self-righteous bitch. I happen to love both the original series AND the movie. Sounds to me from your attitude that YOU are the one that needs to 'get stuffed'.

We all accept that that "warp" is a plot device (and hypothetical) to place one in a bubble of non-normal space so as to cheat the C rule. There would be no space flicks beyond 2001/2010 if not for such cheats.
The main science problem with JJ's flick is that there was far too little "red matter" to form such a black whole or any such gravitational effects. And when the new crappy looking Enterprise ejected it's warp cores, it should have been sucked into the black hole (with the script).
SaganAppreciationSoc 2 years ago
Actually, what they were trying to do was create an explosion to propel the Enterprise away from the black hole they had just created. Although, I do see what you're saying because by injecting it with a the Warp Core would have increased the mass, not to mention gravitational pull of the black hole.
"Wikipedia?"
No, it's called school.
"The obvious escapes you, even still. The problem isn't merely your spelling, but not recognizing the context"
It's called a typo, people make them.

I won't be making any movies, but if i were, it wouldn't be crap. JJ crapped all over Trek canon, violated the known laws of physics as if he had a 4th grade education (apparently JJ knows nothing about mass and gravity) and worst of all, it did the unthinkably stupid: going back in time and changing thing such that two of the same characters exist. So they explain it away with "parallel timelines". What crap. And Kirk wasn't Kirk at all - at least the other actors had some small handle on them.

@deathwishtaco I agree, this movie probably has the most funny parts, like the one where chekov was captured on the navy ship and he is arguing with this guy about names,lol.

this movie made over a 1.9 million bucks (a LOT for 1986)...it was #1 in the box office for a while too...hey man don't diss....besides it's my favorite movie of the all the star trek movies.
jillian7682 2 years ago 2
I hate to burst your illusion there Jillian, but Star Trek IV grossed $109,713,132 dollars at the U.S. box office. That's 109 million dollars not 1 million 9 hundred dollars.
And a movie that makes $109 million dollars by todays standards is STILL a lot of money.
For god sakes the thing cost $27,000,000 to make. If it had grossed 1.9 mil it would have been the biggest cost to profit dud in history.
It grossed $133 million world wide.

first contact was just shooting Borg, and i still dont get why the Borg wanted to assimilate primitive humans...
my fav is VI. the TNG movies just had Picard and Data go after a villain that threatens millions. very uninspired.

This Star Trek was an attack on the greed, stupidity and rudeness of the 80's. It blasted the selfish Me Generation. (Notice only the girl and a few other care about something besides themselves, and this is what drove the whales to near extinction)
